15 Movies You Need to See that People Agree are Absolutely Perfect
By Kirsten Acuna/ Movies/ MSN Entertainment/ in Insider/ msn.com

"We've all been there. It's a Friday night and once again you're scrolling through Netflix or the television guide trying to find a good movie.

That's where movie fans come in to help. A while back, Reddit user VarrickCarter23 asked the /r/movies subredditwhat films they would consider a perfect 10/10 and they received an enormous response.

While some of the films may not shock you - "Toy Story," "There Will Be Blood" - others include great performances you may have overlooked when they were first released in theaters.

The entire list of responses is pretty lengthy, but we've highlighted 15 in here and included the fans' reasonings as to why you should spend time watching these flicks. We encourage you to check out the full list on Reddit here....."

Never heard of some on the "agree" list...just as I am sure that others may have never heard of these that I tend to favor. The test is real simple- which ones will I watch over and over.

THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE
THE WIZARD OF OZ
THE OUTLAW JOSEY WALES
A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT
ABSENCE OF MALICE
LEGENDS OF THE FALL
THE GODFATHER
GODFATHER II
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
ITS A WONDERFUL LIFE
THE HORSE WHISPERER
THE GLADIATOR
THE PASSION OF CHRIST
TOMBSTONE
SAVING PRIVATE RYAN

Favored mini-series
CENTENNIAL
THE THORN BIRDS
LONESOME DOVE

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance was great. I used to love that movie as a kid.

Hi Dixie,

Several Apps will provide the information you want if you list the name of the movie and look through the site for how to rent and or buy or view the movie - it will list your different choices - see "Just Watch"; "IMDb"; "CanIStream.It"

One man's trash is another man's treasure

True of this list and just about all list of "Best" whatever.

Cheers

Agreed. However this discussion is of interest.

What I appreciate about this particular list is that it is a list NOT put forth by media types. I much prefer "word of mouth" recommendations for books and movies and this list by Tugger's has given notice of a few.
