Films 20-11

Oh man is this list getting so good.....Also a lot of dramas on this list for some reason.

20. Se7en- Brad Pitt Kevin Spacey and Morgan Freeman together most likely means a top 50 movie. Also because of this movie whenever someone is opening a package I have to yell, "What's in the box!"



19. Memento- Christopher Nolan's first feature length film and it was a great start to his writing/director talents.  A movie so good you can watch it ten times and still not be sure what happened, in a good way that is.



18. The Sixth Sense- Spoiler alert, he's a ghost. I will always remember watching this movie and loving it so much to have my father watch it.  After the first scene he leans over to me and goes, so Bruce Willis is dead now and the kid can see him?  Talk about figuring the twist out before anyone.



17. The Princess Bride- We all had to figure Andre the Giant would show up somewhere on the list.  This is all around a great movie that stands the test of time.  A true romantic tale for everyone and the touch of Peter Falk reading it to his grandson Fred Savage was a nice twist.



16. The Usual Suspects- Another great cast, and another suspense thriller that has you guessing the whole movie.  Who is Keyser Soze?



15. Beauty and The Beast- Disney classic.  I can't tell you why this is the Disney film I like the best but it just is.  I like the music and the overall story it tells.  Sounds cheesy but love people on the inside and not so much what is on the outside.



14.  Titanic- We have all seen it. We all love it.  It is a little long at times.



13. Forrest Gump-  See review for the movie about it Titanic.



12. Dumb and Dumber- Comedy at it's finest.  I do believe this movie may have the most one liners that I repeat out of any film.  I am super excited for the sequel even though I assume it won't hold up.  The end scene is one of my favorite moments in movie history.  The town is that way.



11. The Simpsons Movie- A lot of you know my love for The Simpsons and how for the first 15 seasons have probably seen every episode 100 times over.  Sure now it's not the show it once was and should have stopped once they made the movie.  The movie is very solid though and does a great job telling a Simpsons story over a 90 minute span instead of the usual 22 minutes.



So just the top ten left and for suspense reasons I'm holding off until Monday to release that list. Give you a preview though: in no particular order the top ten has 3 Christopher Nolan films, a drama, a comedy, an animated film, a musical, a Christmas movie, a love story, and a teen comedy.  So how many can you guess?
