best movie ever?

[jon jon]

Hey guys well just watched the movie Act of Valor and got to say i give it a 5 star. it was exciting yet emotional. teared me up a little. if any of u guys have seen it what did u think of it?

[jb2wheels]

I've been on a WWII kick lately so:
Patton
Midway

On the other hand, if you're a car guy, Cars (yes the Pixar kids movie) is very good.

[El Camexican]

Saving Private Ryan was a good one.

[jon jon]

yes i have cars 1 and 2 lol but by far act of vaylor was pretty awesome

[El Camexican]

Speaking of car movies, did anyone ever see "SPEEDTRAP" back in 1978? It had one of the chicks from Cagney and Lacy in it (pre-porker) and they smashed up a bunch of nice cars. Good theme song too. I’m looking for a DVD and all I can find is VHS. Any chance someone here would know where to get a copy, or even just the name of the theme song (I’d be happy with just that) Went something like ♪Speed trap, don’t look back♪

[jon jon]

sorry bud never seen it lol

[Big Mike]

Pre-porker Cagney and Lacey was Tyne Daley in that movie. Though, I have never seen it, I would like to check it out sometime. It is too bad it seems to only be available on VHS.

Now I've got the freaking song in my head. I hate when that happens. Maybe I'll buy the VHS and deal with the fuzzy. I think I packed away a VCR some where for just such a situation.

Next up on the great movies list: The original "On Any Sunday" and yes, it is available on DVD and I have it:)

A great car movie is Used Cars, with Kurt Russell. The war movie for me is not a movie, but a series, Band of Brothers.

[jon jon]

on any sunday? got it lol

[gus]

I like safe house with denzel Washington. Pretty awsome movie I think ! Oh and adventures that was pretty good also

[jon jon]

also would like to throw in huevos... only seen a few of them but wow thoes guys can ride

[rjs89ia]

band of brothers and pacific for my series. im all about the airborne and marine core, ive got a few of each in my family. forrest gump would probably cover my war movie :D its got everything you need in a movie. can you all see the connection.....tom hanks man the guys a genius. if anything big happens in this world and we break out into war im probably headed to the marines and hitting up the air assault division. im going to watch act of valor here soon and take in somemore carnage nothing like seeing whats behind the scenes in our military.

[Matrix]

Favorite? Damn... I'll give it a shot.
Tron(s)
Lord of the Rings
The Matrix (my name on about everything)
Anything with Chris Farley..
Team America World Police
As for war movies:
Lord of the Rings
Lord of War (with Nicholas Cage)
Saving Private Ryan

Just to name a few.. :D

[jon jon]

haha team america lol love that movie.. TEAM AMERICA F**K YEA

[hoosierlogger]

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

[RIDE-RED 250r]

I really have no clue as to what I would call the "best movie ever". But, "The African Queen" would rank right up there in my book... No, it's not a gutsy movie, and I'm not what you would call an old movie buff... But I just like that old movie alot for some reason.

3 war movies high on my list:

Private Ryan
Full Metal Jacket
We Were Soldiers

But even better than those? 2 Ken Burns documentaries... "The Civil War" and "The War". There's just something about hearing the words of those who lived it that really drives it home....

[jrwebb8324]

A movie I always favored was "The Last Boyscout" with Bruce Willis.

A realy good Denzel movie is .The Book of Eli.And like above The Last Boy Scout. One of the actors in Lord of the Rings went to the High School in the district were I work.Viggo Mortenson.

[atc007]

Book of Eli is awesome,,You cannot go wrong with Anything, Denzel, Cage,or Tim Allen . Also Love documentaries,,I like learning even though I'm not working.

[atc300r]

To you guys that havent seen The Book of Eli .There is something about Eli that doesnt come about til later in the movie.I wont spoil it by saying.

[jon jon]

im deff going to look into that. i think they have it at a red box.

[350XJEDI]

I just watched angels vs demons with tom hanks , gets pretty intense. but my personal faverite movie is" josie wales " or hang em high , fistull of dollers , of course star wars IV ,, car movie would be the old deathrace 2000 and the cannonball movies , war movies is hard theres so many but I like the old delta force with CHUCK NORRIS ,, I know i like corny movies!!!!!

[jon jon]

well i like some of the older movies like rad (a old bmx movie) and the most inspiring movie would be of course Forest Gump

[rjs89ia]

i need to add 2 more movies red tails being im an aviation guy, and stalag 17 that movie's another one that i cant stop watching once its started.

[daniel_250r]

K-19 (Liam Neeson/Harrison Ford)

The Hunt For Red October (Sean Connery/Alec Baldwin)

Crimson Tide (Gene Hackman/Denzel Washington)

Vanishing Point was another great... but IMHO if you want a newer car movie with the old grit and not about fancy ricers go with "Death Proof" you wont regret it.

[atc300r]

I saw Death Proof cool movie.

[jon jon]

random funny movie, Basketball lol

[TheRealFatShady]

Not the best, but quite enjoyable would be Zorro: The Gay Blade (1981)

Funny because it was before 'political correctness.'
