In terms of recent films I watched both Barry Lyndon and Amadeus are pretty much perfect

Only Angels Have Wings has pretty much everything I (and also you, you just don't know it) could ever want in a conventional narrative movie. There are some I like better, but probably none pack so much so efficiently into their runtime.

It's great but my favorite WWII movie is the coming home movie The Best Years Of Our Lives.

Everyone is forgetting about the real perfect movie. Ace Ventura 2 When Nature Calls.

[Ethan Hunt]

Before Sunrise is the best movie ever made. Just saying

[Jake Gittes]

Okay I think that word has already started getting thrown around a little too generously

PERFECT MOVIES

 

ROCKY

NIGHT OF THE HUNTER

A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH/THE RED SHOES

BATMAN RETURNS

RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK/BRIDGE OF SPIES

And instead of voting for those in the top 100 list, I have you giving the big points to Roman J Israel Esq, Sucker Punch and Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey

there's lots of perfect movies.

[Brainbug]

Also shoutout to maybe the best animated movie of all time (IMO) that not enough people know about. Inception can go home crying:

If we're doing perfect movies, 12 Angry Men is the one. Not exactly a spicy take but c'mon it's so good.

was so ready to hate when it when pressed play, but was sooo good and i couldn’t resist loving it. it’s a 10.

Sallie Gardner at a Gallop is perfect because it does exactly what it sets out to do, and that is to fluidly show the movement of a horse.  Also it's revolutionary.  If that film didn't exist then we wouldn't get the horse in tree scene from The Lone Ranger.

speaking of powell/pressburger saw Tales of Hoffmann for a cinema re-release last year and that's really the only way to see it. kinda dull but BAH GAWD the most beautiful movie ever.

Can't believe I missed all the Spielberg talk.  I grew up idolizing him.  For my money, he's done four movies that rank ten out of ten.  JAWS (the GOAT), E.T., Raiders and Schindler's List.  

 

SPR is perhaps the best war film ever made and the opening 20 minutes is something that only Spielberg could do.

 

Temple is electirfying and the mine sequence is something they didn't even know how to film. They just made it up on the fly.

 

Crusade is pure awesomeness.

 

Crystal Skull has it's problems but it's so much fun.

 

I could go on and on but I won't.

 

Spielberg is the best there is the best there was and the best there ever will be imo.
