I've been watching movies since somewhere in early '50's. So I had a lot of years to consider.

My top ten, in alphabetical order:

1. Aguirre, der Zorn Gottes (Aguirre, the Wrath of God)
2. Blade Runner
3. Breaker Morant
4. Goodfellas
5. Il Buono, il brutto, il cattivo (The Good, the Bad and the Ugly)
6. Les Enfants Du Paradis (Children of Paradise)
7. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
8. Total Recall
9. 2001: A Space Odyssey

10. One of the following (I just couldn't decide):

- It's a Wonderful Life
- Shichinin no samurai (Seven Samurai)
- Pulp Fiction
- Unforgiven
- The Manchurian Candidate (1962)
- Jaws
- Patton
- The Deer Hunter
- They Shoot Horses, Don't They
- Bonnie and Clyde
- Glengarry Glen Ross

And I'd also like to mention my two favorite animated films:

- Triplettes de Belleville, Les (the Triplets of Belleville)
- Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi (Spirited Away) - Not the English language version (I can't tell the difference between Japanese and Chinese, but the movie is much more surreal in a foreign language).

For the trivia minded:
These two movies are on six of these top-ten posts (so far).

Psycho
2001

I think Seven Samurai came up five times. To Catch a Thief also came up five times, which is not surprising.

6. The Rules of the Game
7. 2001: A Space Odyssey
