    @Nepia Tony Scott + Denzel is a winner for me.

    @Hooroo That is the only movie on that list that I haven't seen.

    It's weird that it rates so highly in that list. If there was a film from that general era I thought it would be Casablanca or Citizen Kane or a Hitchcock.

    @Bovidae Agree on Scott-Denzil ... Man on Fire is a great nasty action film that predates the old man action films like Taken etc.

    The Shawshank Redemption would be another in my top 5.

    IMDb's top 20.

    Obviously Point Break is such a superb film they didn’t want to embarrass those other films in comparison by putting it on that list. .

    @Nepia Agree, but part of the Tarantino family of movies. Some of my favourite movies have been directed by Ridley or Tony Scott.

    I really enjoyed Black Hawk Down. Tense as

    @Nepia Pulp Fiction would be up there as one of my all time favourites, and I used to watch Swingers a lot

    I watched the 1997 remake. A bit of a slow burn if I recall but very well acted and written. It all takes place in one room (the jury room)

    Back to the future and Shawshank are two movies I would never change the channel for.

    Die hard 1 and 2, revenge of the nerds, the Martian, Taken, Bourne Identity probably in thst list too.

    @canefan the Tony Danza one?

    I saw that too. Not bad, but not memorable either.

    Die Hard has barely aged. Still a bolted on classic. I like them all, Bruce Willis is a boss

    Yeah. Jack Lemmon, George C Scott too. It felt like a play, I wonder if it was adapted? I think I switched onto it one day, a decent watch but I wouldn't do it again

    Princess Bride, probably all time fave
    Always watch Shawshank when I am scanning channels and it is on, regardless of where in movie it is
    Point Break also a top 5 contender (not to be confused with a movie made recently with same name) probably seen this more than nay other movie too
    Happy GIlmore, love it!

    Depending on mood, I reckon I could swap out another dozen or so movies into/out of my top 10.

    I've never seen The Princess Bride.
