After seeing many movie review topics pop up then die off on this board It came to me i don't remember seeing a favorite movie topic.

Well here it is

Just post your favorite movie and maybe a reason why.

Personally one of my all time favorites is a moderately obscure flick called:

"The Party" It's a moderately rare find, but its a true gem. Absent of swearing and goe it's just a solid comedy about a misinvited person to a grand event and he slowly brings the entire party down. It's hillarious and quirky definately worth a watch.

Fight Club the movie sucks. Its a hollywood turd thinly vailed by the plot of the book, which they tore apart and rearranged to suit their needs.

Congo is the greatest movie ever made.

Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels is really good and I recommend Triplets of Belleville to anybody that is slightly into animation.

Hero, poetic and beautiful. I love it.

Otherwise, Star Wars 3, my master piece. I would scratch all my dvds to keep this one during all my life.

You mean the cell-shaded one? It was plain horrible. They tried to put so much plot into a two hour movie that it became boring and tedious. Visually, it was just meh.
