Off Topic Favourite films

[John Wick]

Afternoon all.

Thought I'd throw up a thread about everyones favourite, guilty pleasure or "go too films". Stuff you enjoy or would recommend.

 

[King Kareoke]

A left field for me. Field of Dreams with Kevin Costner. Possibly because I lost my dad when I was young

 

[O'conner flood]

remains of the day
all that jazz

 

[SpikeyBob]

Not really keeping up to date with recent stuff but some of my favourites are Gladiator, Braveheart, Shawshank Redemption, Papillon, Kelly's Heroes, Lord of the Rings/Hobbit, Basic Instinct, Dances with Wolves, and if I want a good laugh, the Airplane films.
Probably nothing particularly different there and I've no doubt missed a few.

 

[clockstander]

Too many to mention just a few off the top of my head Outlaw Josey Wales, Maltese Falcon, Mother Goose, Key Largo, Revenant, Topsy Turvy , Fish Called Wanda, Last Picture Show , all stuff I've watched more than once.

[rooch 3]

To many to mention but one whenever it comes on I sit and watch it again, is Mississippi burning.

 

[SpikeyBob]

Aye aye, Bob

Nowt wrong with a bit of gratuitous sex

 

[Snaggey]

Favourites are Schindlers List, Braveheart, Gladiator, Apollo 13, Shawshank Redemption, Good the Bad and The Ugly, Papillon, Godfather 2, In The Name of the Father, and ...The Goonies.
Edited to add Dances With Wolves and Life of Brian.

 

[Gordon Armstrong]

The good, the bad and the ugly is a fantastic 'proper' film, True Grit (the proper one) is likewise, but my favourite, which I've mentioned before is 'Blazing Saddles'

I also really like 'The blustery day'

 

[FellTop]

A left field for me. Field of Dreams with Kevin Costner. Possibly because I lost my dad when I was young

That is one of those movies I can happily watch at anytime. Really beautiful and a super cast.

 

[farnboromackem]

We have something in common. My favourite movie. Gene Hackman is incredible in that as is a young Willem Dafoe

Snatch, Fury, Extraction, John Wick, Pray, The Krays, World war z, Saving Private Ryan

Snatch, Fury, Extraction, John Wick, Pray, The Krays, World war z

Fury is a great shout

 

[Makemstine Roger]

Fury is a great shout

have you seen Extraction 1 on netflix now staring Chris Hemsworth its brill

 

[Brainman]

Films that don’t try to be anything more than a good yarn.
Dirty Dancing, because I remember that era and the music is great.
Trading Places for a couple of reasons.
12 Angry Men. I watched that again last week. Brilliant.

The problem with that film is its all downhill after the first 5 minutes
