Favorite movies

My top fivefavorites are in constant flux, but presently:

1. Swingers
2. Ocean's 11
3. The Prestige
4. City of God
5. Children of Men

I always try to make the distinction between "favorite" and "best," because I don't think any of the above movies would qualify necessarily as the greatest films I've seen from an accomplishment standpoint. They aren't pinnacle achievements so far as direction or acting or cinematography, but they're very good movies that I can watch over and over again, so that's they make up my top 5.

2. 8 Women (8 Femmes)
3. The Lady Eve
4. Grand Hotel
5. The Umbrellas of Cherbourg

One of my favorite is ‘Mr and Mrs Smith’ which had me in stitches.
The pace was a bit slow in the beginning but the plot picked up with superb satire and
spoof on marriage life per se. I laughed all the way through the film and there was plenty of action along with incredible stunts.

Other favorites I like:
I Am Legend
The Last Samurai
Ek Hasina Thi
Gangster
300
Shrek

and many many more....
