This should be in the Top 250


It is criminal that this film isn't in the Top 250! Anyone agree?

reply

I definitely agree, 2 years later

Not only do I agree but it's an easy flat out 10/10 movie for me.

I just watched it again on Amazon Prime and got the same goosebumps chills and tears from when I saw it the first time. It had a profound impact on me then and still does now, especially with the direction the world seems to be going right now.

10/10 for me too. My second favorite movie and I never tire of watching it. I get the same thrill as when I first saw this film in the theater.




How do you know it's love if you've never been in love before?

reply

Agreed, an utterly amazing film. The ending sequences (the long-shot onward) and Clive Owen's character arc absolutely floored me upon first viewing.

It was for several years, I remember when it first came out it was on #58 or something, then it started falling off...Lots of movies rated 7.8-8.0 are like that, at first they're rated super high and they started dropping...In several months movies like Avengers will eventually drop too..

Agreed jack-carter42.

If this movie was in the Top 250 then its plot wouldn't be that realistic. I mean this site is dominated by people from a country who just elected Trump for president - hence not Top 250 - and hence it's frighteningly lucid.
