The 90's had a wide range of Masterpieces that went unnoticed at the time and got their cult statuses only years after.

Movies that come to mind:

- Shawshank Redemption
- Usual Suspects
- Reservoir Dogs
- Boyz N' the Hood
- Glengarry Glenn Ross
- Heat
- American History X

- Many More I can't think of right now................

I must be one of the very few people who haven't actually seen it. Will check it out soon...

there is no such thing as 'the best movie of all time', 'the best song of all time', 'the most beautiful woman of all time' etc - foolish to rank anything as 'best' that is totally subjective. saying 'it's the favorite movie of IMDB voters', that's fair.

the arts aren't a competition, sports are.

There is no way they see or vote any movie released before of year 2005 unless already in the imdb (or similar) top lists.
As an example, I would not consider the votes of anyone who does not seen the holy mountain http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071615/ , it got votes from 10,260 users and 102 reviews, and it is released in 1973.
Compare with the dark knight rises released weeks ago already 209,000 votes and 1598 reviews (and ridiculous vote 9.0 - evidence those people seen no any movies before of that).
In general the imdb user reviews are more useful than the vote, but just for not-popular movies.
An example is in the anime - the tv movie episode Lupin III Rupan Sansei: Episode 0 , http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0827737/ of 2002, it got only 115 votes and 2 user reviews, but the vote is 8.6 and reviews are good. In fact, this is one of the best Lupin III movies ever, but no way you discover it from imdb top lists.
Man, you are wrong. Also, at Rottentomatoes.com 98% of users liked this movie (almost 800.000 votes). Teenagers like actors such as Tom Cruise, Johny Depp, Vin Diesel, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jessica Alba but certainly not Tim Robbins or Morgan Freeman.

sojproductions 08-03-2012 02:10 AM

However that list is pretty bad. The Truman Show over Good Fellas, which didn't even make the list.

Blow is one of my all time favorite movies, also not on the list.
Er, Goodfellas was #15. :)

IMDb does have a lot of classics highly rated but the list is skewed to newer movies quite a bit. Pulp Fiction at #4 seems ludicrous to me (and it used to be way lower). Great movie sure, but c'mon.

Great movie but Best EVER? SMH

rufflebuttfairy 08-07-2012 12:04 PM

Niktamer 08-07-2012 02:09 PM
Make sense for me !

first time i saw it at the theater.. I had that stange feeling of "deja vu" I was guessing right everything that was about to happen.. and then realized I readed the novel by Stephen king when i was at HighSchool.

Best movie ever.. written by the king of horror :)

Bit old news, but good movie

GrantMercury 08-07-2012 11:41 PM
I thought it was great, too. I never bought his escape - but that's what the willful suspension of disbelief is all about. :thumbsup

I've never seen it either, or ET, Blade Runner or Apocalypse Now.

Need to one day sit down and watch them, well all but ET.

allasianmedia 08-08-2012 10:19 AM
Great movie, never gets old for me!

Cherry7 08-08-2012 10:53 AM
A good film sure.

A realistic portral of the American penal system, I don't think so...

There are films made outside of the USA, some of them very good.

Even just counting US films Hitchcock, Ang Lee, Coppola just to name three to come to mind have made better films...

Evil Chris 08-08-2012 11:05 AM
I liked it. I need to watch it again, though.
It's been years.
