Is there a movie everyone regards as a great film? - Blu-ray Forum

savage1984 · 03-17-2008, 04:30 PM

I am so sick and tired of hearing. This was the best film in ten years. And that was an amazing film. Look at the acting. Oh, how could you not like that film?
Well I have a question. Can you name a film, no one can say anything negative about? A flawless film, all have liked. If you can, I would love to see it on Blu-ray!!

We all watch movies for different reasons. There is not one movie that everyone will say is great. Please find one. It doesn't exist.

uh..so why did you start this thread?

The Wizard of Oz. Everyone likes this when they are young...

I'm gonna have to agree. Its sheer brilliance for its time is still remarkable...

Not just when people are young. I'm past 30 and I still love it. It makes you feel good.

I talked to a telemarketer once and referenced this movie with a laugh. She said, "I've never seen it." I hung up on her.

Well it had to be started. It's a great question. You don't have to try an answer it, and i'd prefer it if you didn't.

It's fun to discuss what people think are great movies. It seems many mobster movies are considered great by so many, and just another gangster movie by others (Godfather I, II, Goodfellas, Casino, etc.). There is no genre that everyone loves. Some adults hate cartoons. Some hate violence and sex on tv. But where are those family values of which we belong.... oh, wait.

Xtop, you're right. The answer is most likely NO. And that's my point. When people say, that movie sucks. Or that movie was amazing. People really take these things to heart when that person's taste may not even remotely reflect that of the former.

To be honest, I get sick and tired of people quoting rottentomatoes.com
But maybe it's because I think all critics don't know their asses from their mouths, or maybe they do but they choose not to care.

+1...not too many people hate the godfather

Pelican170 · 03-17-2008, 05:19 PM

Godfather is a good one. I would also say movies such as Braveheart or The Patriot. You dont hear too many complaints on those two...

sardaukar1977 · 03-17-2008, 05:28 PM

Office Space, when it comes out on BD, which I hope will be soon.

Braveheart. Too long. These aren't my opinions. I'm just playing devil's advocate. The Patriot.... Come on. There are 1,000s of movies better than that.

My only vote would be Casablanca.
