You won't find two more handsome guys in the same film than Paul Newman and Robert Redford for Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. It's the most famous picture of their careers. The finale is brilliant when their characters are surrounded by the Bolivian army and they're ready to come out with their guns blazing.

There are hundreds of them, but Lethal Weapon is the best buddy cop film of all time. The chemistry between Danny Glover and Mel Gibson is terrific. It's what makes the movie. One is pretty good for a detective although he's a big believer in "do as little as possible and, more importantly, stay alive," and the other is a true lethal weapon. The next two sequels are funny as Joe Pesci and Rene Russo are added into the mix.

Benefitting from Frank Darabont's well-written screenplay and powerful direction, Tim Robbins' and Morgan Freeman's performances help lift the film off the ground and let it fly like the human spirit. If anything, it's the Red's voice-over narration that makes The Shawshank Redemption so good. Roger Deakins' cinematography gives the film a special feel as it enters the classic territory.

Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman give the best performances of their careers. They'll be forever remembered for this film. Midnight Cowboy is a study of human nature: the hopes, the broken dreams, the disillusionment, the desperation, the suffering, the loneliness, and the loss of innocence. They're all brilliantly read on Jon Voight's face. The "I'm walkin' here! I'm walkin' here!" scene is priceless.

Nancy Drew... Detective and the following three sequels are charming whodunnit mystery pictures with great lines. Bonita Granville and Frankie Thomas are excellent together and deserve Oscar nominations. It's difficult to beat their chemistry. A lot of the action they generate is just pure old-fashioned fun.

"An astonishing work of art and an overpowering motion picture experience" is how one Los Angeles Times critic described Easy Rider. Dennis Hopper, Peter Fonda, and Jack Nicholson will always be identified with this film. Entering the Deep South, the tragic ending is memorable because of what George Hanson said: "They're scared of what you represent to 'em. What you represent to them is freedom."

In comparison with other children's films, nothing beats The Goonies. Unparalleled are the acting, dialogue, sense of humor, premise, fantasy, creativity, comedy, and action-adventure. Of the child stars, Corey Feldman does an exceptional job. As for the rest of the cast, they're natural. The Goonies has it all that you can possibly want in a children's film.

There's something nostalgic about American Graffiti whether it's the cars, the cruises, the drive-ins, the rock 'n' roll music, the 50-60's feel, the innocence, or the characters. One thing that's undeniable is it's a timeless classic with a great cast of characters who are engaged in random events. Take away any of them, and American Graffiti ceases to be the picture as it is.

Tango & Cash still doesn't get the respect it deserves, featuring one of the most electrifying on-screen chemistry between Kurt Russell and Sylvester Stallone. They're like fire and kerosene. Put these two together, and the screen ignites. The comedy works because of the way they feed off each other so well.

James Caan and Billy Dee Williams...they're unforgettable in Brian's Song which is among the greatest, most powerful movies ever made. It's also one of the saddest, proving a made-for-TV picture with a simple moving story is infinitely better than a pointless violent film with an overblown budget.

The best baseball picture made, Major League wins points when it comes to the cast, characters, comedy, classic moments, one-liners, and direction. The ending is excellent. Who can forget Charlie Sheen, Wesley Snipes, and Tom Berenger as the Wild Thing, Willie Mays Hayes, and Jake Taylor, respectively?

Planes, Trains & Automobiles is an all-time classic that's relatable for everybody, no matter what decade it's viewed in. Scoring high in comedy, it's almost a laugh-a-minute all the way through. There are many funny scenes and one-liners involving John Candy. Both he and Steve Martin have called Planes, Trains & Automobiles their favorite movie they've done. Honestly, there's not a single flaw in it.

Tex is among top three films of Matt Dillon's career. When the two high school girls saw Tex at the mall and walked away, one of them said, "God, he is so cute." It's true. At age 18, there's no question that Matt Dillon was one of the best-looking young actors in Hollywood history. More importantly, he could act. It was all too easy for him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, direct from Hell, Spinal Tap!!" Genius is written all over this film, one of the funniest ever. Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer are brilliant. Many viewers thought the English band was real, and they got fooled big time. That's how convincing these actors were. To think of the movie is to think of the timeless quotes and scenes.

The best way to think of The Wild Bunch is "honor among thieves." If there's a film that represents Sam Peckinpah the most, it's this one. The editing is amazing. There are some scenes that are stirring and passionate. The display of violence is unbelievable and is best described as poetic.

Don't get me wrong: I like The Big Chill and think of it as a classic of the genre. But let's give proper credit where it's due: Return of the Secaucus 7 is the original. There are so many similarities between them that there's no way that Lawrence Kasdan couldn't have seen it.

The Man Who Would Be King is first-rate entertainment at the hands of John Huston. Do not ever expect anything less from him because he always has a great yarn to tell. Michael Caine and Sean Connery deliver some of the best acting of their careers. The ending puts the final stamp on the film's greatness.

Full of brilliant writing and brilliant acting, M*A*S*H is the best and most intelligent comedy film ever made. The ensemble cast is unbelievable, playing unforgettable characters. So are the scenes which are so funny. No wonder why this one spawned a highly successful TV show.

The Monster Squad is one of the all-time great children's films with a delicious mix of horror and comedy. Fascinating is how well it bridges the gap, giving something for everybody: horror fans, comedy fans, children, and adults. The best part is putting together the five most famous movie monsters from Universal Studios in one film: Count Dracula, Wolf Man, Mummy, Frankenstein's Monster, and Creature from the Black Lagoon.

Is the music the reason that makes The Big Chill, or is it the chemistry of the cast? Either way, the movie is unforgettable for many reasons. Sometimes, I hoped for a clear explanation as to why Alex committed suicide, but after getting no answers, I suppose it doesn't matter. What does is the group getting together to remind each other of what's important in life.

"A team is not a team if you don't give a damn about each other." Because of the South Korea national karate team's training montage, Best of the Best is a tremendous rush. Standouts include Eric Roberts, Chris Penn, Simon Rhee, and James Earl Jones. The ultimate match is what the film is about.

There are few films that are as exciting and inspiring as Point Break. I bet if anyone watched the movie just once, he may have entertained some thoughts about changing his entire lifestyle. Bodhi perfectly describes the truth-seeking experience: "Pure adrenaline, right?!? The ultimate rush. Other guys snort for it, jab a vein for it...all you gotta do is jump." Sounds pretty simple, eh? Patrick Swayze did the skydiving stunts and is thus captivating. It's easy to realize it in Johnny Utah's eyes when he saw what Bodhi could do.

Talk about two actors making something out of nothing. Scarecrow mostly reminds me of Midnight Cowboy. Everybody is dumb but has character. First half is dominated by Gene Hackman, and then, Al Pacino takes over during the second half. They both finish the film at a high but somber note. It's about relationships and earning respect. Yes, this one takes a while to get there, but once it does, you'll be hooked.

This one shows everybody why Eric Roberts is among the finest American actors. The Big Chill for homosexuals, It's My Party is a wonderfully directed picture by Randal Kleiser with one of the best collection of performances by an ensemble cast. It presents a perfect case of why there's nothing wrong with suicide so one can die with dignity.

Memphis Belle is excellent which depicts the job that bomber crews went through during World War II. It's a dramatic show because their lives were at stake to serve their country. There's no glamorization at work; it's just a set of straightforward facts of how the job was done. I like the star-studded cast, and there's a nice deal of teamwork. The final hour is very exciting.

The very first film to be released on DVD in the United States, Twister is purely on-the-edge-of-your-seat entertainment and is famous for one scene: the flying cow. It's cool to see that which does happen for real. So are the scenes when tornadoes are happening and trucks are riding alongside them.

The ending is poignant when Casper asked: "Jesus Christ, what happened?" Shocking, edgy, raw, and real, Kids is still a highly relevant picture. The situation depicted may be extreme, but there's a point being made. I love how the characters come to a full circle, beginning with Telly infecting Jennie with AIDS and ending with Casper getting the virus by raping Jennie.

Every Which Way But Loose is a one hundred percent pure cult flick. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's serious, and most of the time, it's just plain old good fun. The best part is the relationship between Clint Eastwood and Clyde the orangutan. The film is littered with many funny scenes, especially the one with Philo dropping a set of fake teeth in a soup before the snobbish college girl discovers it.

Apart from setting the trend of summer blockbuster film releases, Jaws' greatest legacy is making people think of the shark whenever they go for a swim in the ocean. Hence, Steven Spielberg was genius for not showing it for a long while. When the shark finally comes, watch out!

In the vein of And Then There Were None, Predator is one of the best sci-fi horror pictures of all time and is a hell of a ride. This is about muscles, guns, and blowing up things. Arnold Schwarzenegger is unforgettable as Major Dutch. So are his lines: "Get to da choppa!!!" and "If it bleeds, we can kill it."

Welcome back, B movies of the sci-fi genre. Tremors is a big treat. Everything is plain awesome, and the movie is thrilling and scary in the vein of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Unlike many others, it lays down the rules and faithfully follows them to the end. The creativity should be praised.

Thanks to Eddie Murphy, Beverly Hills Cop is great fun. His character Axel Foley from Detroit arrives in Beverly Hills, and all the crazy things start to happen like getting thrown out of the store through the glass window and being busted for disturbing the peace. Hard to forget are the two dudes in Michael Jackson jackets, Axel pretending to be Ramon at the Harrow Club, the banana incident, the stripper club scene, and the super-cop theory. The sequel holds up well, too.

The editing work of the dogfighting scenes is the best in any film. There are many great movie moments: Tom Cruise on his bike while an F-14 Tomcat is taking off, when he arrives at the female instructor's house, the whole volleyball match with Rossovich flexing his muscles, the piano scene at Kansas City Barbeque, and an F-14 Tomcat buzzing the tower. Top Gun makes joining the U.S. Navy to be a fighter pilot a very cool thing to do.

The Sandlot was already a classic baseball picture when it first came out in 1993. The story is creative. All of the child actors are natural, and they can play baseball, too. There are nice random moments from time to time to make the film memorable.

Toy Soldiers is The Goonies meets Die Hard. This time, the boys are more grown up and attend an elite prep high school. The story is great, so is the battle. Sean Astin is once again in the leading role while Andrew Divoff steals the show as Luis Cali who makes for a formidable adversary since Hans Gruber.

The Back to the Future trilogy is a great, fun journey with many zany scenes and superb performances. I love the characters, the stories, and the uniqueness of the incidents and how one specific moment can change history. Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd will always be memorable as Marty McFly (what a cool name) and Doc Brown, respectively.

Brilliant and haunting, The Last Picture Show is a timeless motion picture about individuals growing up in a dying Texas town. Robert Surtees' black-and-white photography has never looked better. Then, there's the ensemble cast: the old-timers and those who'll go on to be famous.

It can't be any more dramatic than the scene when Tre yelled out to Ricky after the sight of the red Hyundai Excel. Simply put, Boyz n the Hood is the game changer of the genre and sets the standard that all black films are forever burdened to match. Of the ensemble cast, Ice Cube is unbeatable as Doughboy.

Riveting and moving, Glory is the top film of 1989 and ranks among the very best of the decade. Without doubt, the most spectacular performance comes from Denzel Washington who clinched the Oscar during the flogging scene. The 54th's assault on Fort Wagner underscores how dramatic the whole thing is. The night before is incredible because these men knew they were going to die and felt prepared about it.

Because of the full range of colors, Bonnie and Clyde is a beautifully photographed film with impeccable acting performances. Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway have chemistry that's impossible to duplicate. Their violent ending is unforgettable as well.
