There's just too much to name.

Hello! ^.^

Best movies ever, huh? Wow..that's hard. I would definitely say that my top five favorites are:

Shaolin Soccer, Ong Bak, Kung Fu Hussle, The One, What Dreams May Come. Heh, just about all martial arts/action and then Robin Williams!^.^ But what a great movie it is!!

Anyone else?

Namaste.

okay in no particular order...

- star wars trilogy (the original ones from the late 70s & early 80s... i don't even like the ones that lucas edited)
- lord of the rings
- ong bak (of course)
- hom rong "the overture" ...what an absolutely beautiful movie
- memento - it still blows me away every time i watch it (even though every time i'm done watching i'm all confused and i'm like "what time is it? what day is it?"
- jackie chan's movies: police story saga, drunken master 1 & 2, project A, who am i, young master, snake in eagle's shadow fist, snake & crane arts of shaolin, rumble in the bronx, wheels on meals... just to name a few
- crouching tiger, hidden dragon - i LOVED this movie... not so much for the fighting, which i thought was beautiful and appropriate for the movie even though i generally don't like wire-fu, but instead for the love story between Li Mu-Bai and Yu Shu-Lien.
- casablanca

...um that's all i can think of right now.

-TYG (it's gonna be on my list soon)
-Ongbak
-Apple Seed (Japanese Animation) This one is awesome. I am telling you.
-Spirited Away
-The Last Samurai (The scene is so wonderful)
-Golden Boy(it's a Japanese animation series) it's great. believe me. but only boys can enjoy this one (i think).

-Ongbak,TYG
-Thunder bolt jackie chan movie
-The Crow,The Crow city of angel
-The Fifth Elements,Leon

- Ong-Bak, TYG
- Lord of the rings
- Monrak Transistor
- Boy's don't cry
- My Sassy girl (the actress is beautiful and can really act !)
- Banlieue 13
...

There are too many movies that I like alot, but I would say old Jet Li movies are one of the best.

- Ong Bak
- Lord of the Rings trilogy
- Star Wars series
- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
- Kill Bill volume 1 & 2
- The Matrix trilogy
- Sin City
- Rush Hour 2
- Artificial Intelligence
(TYG and War of the Worlds to be added this year)

There is really to many to list. But this just gives you an idea. I am a fan of sci-fi/violent/Medieval/Martial Arts type movies.

Ong Bak << duh..
House of Flying Daggers << more ppl should mention this
Taking Lives << can i just say..clever
Lord of the Rings(Return of the King is my fave)
Princess Mononoke << some ppl dislike it but i luv it
The Incredibles << great movie for kids and adults

Thats all I can think of right now...

-Ong Bak (definetly)
-Liscense to steal (Hong Kong movie around 1990)
-Born to fight
-Saving Private Ryan
-Blood Sport
-Rush Hour 2
-Body Guard
-Black Hawk Down
-Titanic
-Hong Kong Jackie Chan movies

And I am 99.9% confident that Tom Yum Goong will be the #1 best movie after I watch it in Thailand.

do watch "Bangkok dangerous" it won several international film festival awards

-Snatch
-Aniki(Brother)
-Ong Bak
-Once Upon Time in China series

Ong-Bak
Born To Fight
Gerd Ma Lui
Fist Of Legend
Oldboy
Sympathy For Mr Vengeance
Lord of the Rings Trilogy
Star Wars Trilogy
Hero
House of Flying Daggers
Evil Dead I & II

The list goes on and on and on....

- Le dernier Samouraï
- Le grand bleu
- Devdas
- Nemo
- Le voyage de Shihiro
- Les autres (with Nicole Kidman)
- Danny the Dog
- Dracula (Francis Ford Coppola)
- Muriel's wedding
- Crying Freeman
- Splash
- Le masque de Zorro (Antonio Banderas and Catherine Z-J)
- Eyes wide shut
- Entretien avec un vampire
- L'associé du Diable
...

I thought another pang brother movie was much better then bangkok dangerous,it was;

bangkok for sale -one take only

very good movie, as most of the pang brothers movies are...

For the rest its hard to say what is th best movie u ever watched, i watch so many its hard to make a list what is best..
But for martial arts movies Ong Bak and Drunken Master II are the 2 best ever made.
And for the rest korean cinema are making the best movies now imho...

My favorite movies are mainly old ones:

Spartacus,feat Kirk Douglas
Barabbas,feat Anthony quinn
Ben Hur, feat Charlton Heston
A fistful of dynamite,by Sergio Leone

More recent movie I often like to watch is Platoon(1986)
And the best 2005 movie I have watched is Blood Brothers.It is a Korean movie about two brothers who have become enemies during war.One of the best war movies I have ever watched,I advise you to watch it if it comes out where you live.

I won´t include any martial arts/action movies here because the list would go on and on...

Couple of movies I really like:

-La Haine (The Hate); French black-and-white movie, has anyone else seen it? Don´t ask me why I like it, I just do

-Kikujiro; a Takeshi Kitano film, fits really into my sense of humor

-Some of Buster Keaton´s movies; he was a genius in the field of physical comedy, also Jackie Chan likes his movies

-Some of Laurel&Hardy- movies; some of their comical stuff just won´t outdate

That's a great film, I'm happy you've seen it !!! It was a big hit in France. One of my favorites movies.

Ah, it´s nice to hear that also other people are appreciating this movie, too. I have it on VHS and I showed it to couple of my friends, and their only reaction was "Hey, man, it´s black-and-white!?"...

awwwww Too bad that's such a good film. I've seen it ten years ago now

I impressed a French movies It quite old one,.. sounds like RED,White,Blue THREE COLORS trilogy or something. Classic, Beautiful and sometimes hard to Understand.

mine would have to be a thai movie, called "the letter" starring anne tongprasom and num attaporn..

that movie made me cry into pieces

Too hard of a question. I couldn't possibly narrow down to one... or even two... or three.

But for the film connoisseur, Wong Kar-Wai's "In the Mood for Love" is eye candy. Every frame a piece of art. Probably considered by many his finest.

Iranian's film director, Majid Majidi produced a wonderful story of hardship and unselfish love with "Baran."

For those who thinks they don't like Karate may want to see "Fighter in the Wind," a semi-biographical account of the life of Korean-born Mas Oyama, founder of Kyokushin Karate.

If you want to see true determination personified, consider watching Zhang Yimou's "Not One Less" (Yi Ge Dou Bu Neng Shao) based on real events surrounding a little 13 years old girl from Mainland China.

Enjoy. More to come...

... And for the action slash martial artists in you or for those who enjoy a good shoot-em up flick, try...

"Beat" Takeshi Kitano's "Brother" or any of his films, including his recent "Zatoichi," a twisted remake about the Blind Swordsman, and old time favs "Sonatine" and "Firecracker."

Korean's "Musa (The Warrior)" is a decent period martial arts story based on historical references, and co-featured Zhang Zi Yi.

"Brotherhood of the Wolf" (Le Pacte Des Loups) featuring Mark Dacascos and Monica Bellucci is an entertaining movie of spooks and folklore.

Tsui Hark's "Legend of Zu" is one Hong Kong's many recent techno wizardries about classic Chinese folklore mix with a good dose of fantasy. Featured Ekin Cheng, Cecilia Cheung, and brief appearances by Zhang Zi Yi. "Storm Riders" is another similar one to watch.

The "Infernal Affairs" trilogy (Tony Leung, Andy Lau...) is really good if you enjoy present day good versus evil/Triads versus cops. I loved Cai Qin's (Tsai Chin) featured in the movies. A U.S remake is in the making. "Young and Dangerous" series is another one to watch.

Haven't seen Jackie's latest HK "New Police Story" but heard it took on cues from the popular "Infernal Affairs" series.

Thailand's "The Legend of Suriyothai" is a well-directed historical epic about the Princess. Trying to locate a DVD of "Bang Rajan."

Well my favorite movie that i ever seen is Gladiator with Russell Crowe , all of Bruce Lee movies he is my idol but i really hate movies where there is to much bullshit in it sorry for the bad word movies like Matrix , Kill Bill and so on....

My favorite movies are:

-Lord of the Rings Trilogy
-Star Wars Trilogy
-Clockwork Orange

-Battle royale
-Ong Bak
-fighter in the wind
-New police story

Mine are:

the lord of the rings
