Best movie all time

Is drive really that good? I could never manage to actually sit down and watch a movie about a guy driving. I'm also not a big fan of Ryan gosling so that probably doesn't help much.

Might have to try it out since it's been mentioned by a fellow sherbro, plus Cranston is in it and he is one of my favorite actors.

To stay on topic tho, I would probably say braveheart but since it's been said multiple times already I'll throw in another.

The grandmaster, I might be alone in this but I thought the way this movie was directed and the fight scenes plus it being a story about the man who trained Bruce lee ( in a huge Bruce fan ) all make it one of my favorite movies. If you like martial arts check this movie out, it's awesome!

Drive is an amazing movie experience. @quadrunner @Zer

I think Drive is an amazing film. But I guess it's a bit divisive because it has a definite style and pace that won't be for everyone. If you're expecting a straight up action flick about douchebags driving cars - it's not that at all. I see it as a tragic love story. dat final scene

fast times at ridgemont high is my choice. jeff spicoli is one of the greatest movie characters ever, and sean penn is an acting genius.
 
Honestly, probably Shawshank Redemption but original Predator is a favorite also.
 
Watched the first hour or so of The Godfather last night on Netflix(fell asleep, seen it a billion times though), it's such a cliche answer but god damn it really is a damn near perfect movie, every frame, every scene, every line, easily one of my favorites of all time. It's hard for me to say any movie is better.

Godfather II though I find to be overrated, it's really not that good.
 
While y'all are watching dramas I'm gonna go hang out by the bar, put out the VIBE.

T2 over the original? I've never got it.

My pic - Shaun of The Dead.

The actual "driving" is quite limited, you get an opening scene and a couple of quick chases plus some flashes of bloody violence, most of the film is really more an artfully shot crime drama/romance, Cranston is very good in it although Albert Brooks is better I'd say.

I do think ultimately Refn is more of a Tarantino kind of director, not an arthouse guy sluming it in genre cinema but rather a genre film maker with a lot of ambition.
 
My personal favorite is Pulp fiction, greatest of all time from a more objective standpoint I'd say The Godfather though (1-2)
 
It has to be one of the following for me:

Tombstone
The Matrix
Sleepers
Suicide Kings
Primer

I think the Matrix is my absolute favorite. But maybe Tombstone or Primer.
 
Have no idea but the first movie that popped in my mind is The Gladiator so I'll go with that one.
