Well, well.. this is a really difficult selection to make; there are just too many good movies to choose from. Being an ardent action fan, especially of martial arts movies, I'm rather inclined to put all Jackie Chan's movies here. Anyway, I'll try to make a fair judgment taking all sections into account. Here goes:
10) Legally Blonde: Starring the gorgeous Reese Witherspoon, this movie is about an Eastern beauty who is looked down and considered inferior by her rather 'Western' boyfriend. The movie is all about how she goes on to top Harvard Law School in order to regain her boyfriend only to find something even better. A rather nice comic flick.
9) Shrek :- Well..perhaps fairytales do come true. This is a fun-filled family movie about an Ogre that falls in love with a princess. An enjoyable movie for people of all ages. Some classic comedy provided by the Donkey (Eddie Murphy} also manages to steal many a heart.
8) Rocky 4 :- Whoa..the Stallone all time classic series is a must in this series. And, by far the best in the series was this particular one. Starring the incredible Dolph Lundgren as the undefeatable Ivan Drago, the movie has some high emotions as well as some classic fights. A true classic.
7) No Holds Barred :- I don't expect many of you to have heard of this movie. It’s a wrestling movie starring Hulk Hogan. Being a big wrestling fan, I couldn't resist putting this in. It's a rather violent movie where Hulk is placed in the ring with a genetic monster picked up from the street in a No Holds Barred contest where the price of winning could result in the death of his girlfriend and losing could result in his own death.
6) Armour Of God 2 - Operation Condor :- Simply Chan's best movie ever. A tremendous action thriller about a race to obtain WW2 hidden gold deep in the desert. Three gorgeous ladies and the master of martial-arts Jackie Chan make this movie action classic.
5) Evil Dead :- I first watched this movie when I was about 8 years alone at night, not to mention that it scared me plenty After this, no other horror movie has really been scary or thrilling. I sincerely believe that this is the best horror movie ever made.
4) Scary Movie :- The funniest movie ever made. I've never laughed so much in my life. This is the perfect teenage movie whose story I better not reveal here for decency's sake.
3) Revenge of the Nerds :- Another college movie. It’s all about the life of the studious nerds in a college dominated by the jocks. It’s about retaliation and finding one's place in the world with a comic outlook to it. A wonderful movie, which I never get tired of watching.
2) The Little Mermaid {Animation}:- I know I'm too old to be watching this movie...but I can’t help it. I've loved this movie ever since I was a kid. I love the songs, I love Ariel and I love the story...the movie is about Love and I just love the movie.
1) Titanic :- Did that rise some eyebrows ? It definitely shouldn't...its no fluke that this movie grossed over a billion bucks. It's the most touching, creative and artistic movie ever made. It’s simply Titanic.
Well, these are some movies I couldn't find a place for but they are as good as the ones above :
D3-Mighty Ducks series, Project A, The Road to El Dorado, Princess Diaries, Deep Impact and one movie which I'm afraid I totally forgot 'Independence Day'...it belongs right up there with 'Titanic'.
These are the movies I've grown to love...but then again to each his own.
