TalismanRing Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 It's a great movie. Gladiator is a great example of contemporary epic populist cinema So.... for people who never saw Spartacus and haven't watched any real epic cinema. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 #19 57.72% Director: Alfonso Cuarón Written by: David Arata, Mark Fergus, Hawk Ostby, Timothy J. Sexton & Alfonso Cuarón Shortly after Gravity comes Cuarón's final film on our list - and similarly, the film is noted for Lubezki's impressively long takes. Children of Men storms the top 20 at #19. RT Consensus: "Works on every level: as a violent chase thriller, a fantastical cautionary tale, and a sophisticated human drama about societies struggling to live. This taut and thought-provoking tale may not have the showy special effects normally found in movies of this genre, but you won't care one bit after the story kicks in, about a dystopic future where women can no longer conceive and hope lies within one woman who holds the key to humanity's survival. It will have you riveted." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfBSncUspBk 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 City of God. Did not think that would make it, let alone be this high. Bravo, box office forums! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For any/all the complaints people might have had for the first half of the list, from #30 onwards the list has some really great choices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Y Tu Mama Tambien should have made it as well. Cuaron is 4/4 so far this century. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalo Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 #24 54.56% Director: Pete Docter Written by: Peter Docter & Bob Peterson More from Pixar, and the director of Monsters, Inc. is the colourful Up. It floats up through our list to land at #24. RT Consensus: "Another masterful work of art from Pixar, Up is an exciting, hilarious, and heartfelt adventure impeccably crafted and told with wit and depth." Up may be the most over-rated animated film I've ever seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnY Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 some surprises for me I didn't expect Spirited Away to rank so high. I didn't know people here loved Minority Report and Snowpiecer. I had never heard about Under the Skin and Traffic before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kvikk Lunsj Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Gladiator is perfect example of the "people's" classic. It is a good film but there a lot of problems with it. I love it thou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
