Your favorite movie suggestions

Hi everyone,

Like many people, my wife and I enjoy watching a variety of movies and TV shows. We’ve explored a lot from the '80s, '90s, and even some from the 2000s. Our main focus is on entertainment, and we prefer content that doesn’t push a particular agenda.

If you have any recommendations for films that fit this criteria, we’d love to hear them! A top five or even a top ten list would be great. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

“Enter the Void” is excellent, but not your standard movie fare, more of an ‘experience’. Not really for the faint hearted.

Not the new twister movie lol. Wife and I were bored today and saw it and it was unintentionally hilarious

The book was better…

(Ok, I’m that guy)

The original isn’t exactly a great example of realism.
But it was fun.

Was this one even more unbelievable?

This was on our list, and based on your description, we might give it a watch. Tonight, we’ve decided to take a chance and go with The Count of Monte Cristo.
