Have only seen Aviator in this group (and loved it to death...watch it about once a year or so). Don't shoot me!

Surprised to see Alexander here, since it was hated by, like, everybody. :P

I'll hopefully be seeing Raging Bull and Ali VERY soon. Like...this month.

Haven't seen enough to form a top ten.

Alexander was extremely ambitious, very entertaining, and not without its series of flaws. But I really did enjoy the movie on many levels. The director's cut is clearly the best version of the film. It's extremely epic, the cinematography is exquisite, and the battle scenes are fucking incredible.

You've GOTTA see Raging Bull. Like...drop what you're doing and get it immediately. It's one of the best movies ever made.

Ali doesn't get enough respect.
