 231  8.8  8.1 Dream-like yet realistic film about a journey to each one's personal paradise. When the paradise brokes down all that is left, is the devastating emptyness of our shallow lifes. Tarkovsky tells us, we should live our lifes enjoying the things that might sometimes seem too obvious. The atmospehere of Stalker is quite impossible to put to words, it just is... out of this world. Tarkovsky's visual eye really pops up in this one as he has made one of the most visually stunning films ever. Stalker makes you think about your life from many different views.
The greatest movie of all time? Propably not, but it sure as hell is the most impressive piece of cinema I've ever witnessed. The Wolf's rating:
 
109 8.6 8.1 Flawless masterpiece by Dreyer. An allegory of Jesus Christ with genius use of close-ups.
The Wolf's rating:
86 8 7.3 Godard's vitty and poignant satire about the money and consumption centered lifes of modern humanbeings. Pure brilliance.
The Wolf's rating:
29 8.8 0 This should be Dekalog as whole, but since it's listed here as TV-series, I can't put it on this list. So, this will replace it.
Kieslowski brings life to cinema with Dekalog in the way no one else has ever brought. It deals with the big guestions of ethics, philosophy and life itself and does it with a delicate touch of symbolism and with his amazing acting-centered way. The Wolf's rating:
282 8.6 8.1 Bergman's impressive psychosexual portrait of two women having more than just a nurse and a patient relationship. Avant-garde cinema at it's finest.
The Wolf's rating:
308 8.4 8.2 A deep story of director's frustration on getting his film made. 8½ has layers more than anyone can ever count.
The Wolf's rating:
52 9.2 8 A Great masterpiece of American silent cinema might just be the seminal American film. Epic.
The Wolf's rating:
664 8.3 8.2 A true American masterpiece. Worthy contestant to Citizen Kane, The Godfather and Raging Bull. A pitch-dark portrait of one man who represents the entire nation's greed for prosperity and fame. Day-Lewis' performance is brilliant and might just be the ultimate performance in the American film industry. When years pass, There Will Be Blood will be remembered as the masterpiece of it's era.
The Wolf's rating:
148 8.5 7.9 No storyline, just collected memories from Tarkovsky's childhood and his father's poems, and of course real visual beauty.
The Wolf's rating:
121 8.2 8.3 Beautifully shot and acted in a genius theatrical way. Cinema at it's purest, I might say.
The Wolf's rating:
242 8.3 8.4 Themes of post-war depression and father-son -relationship wrapped beautifully together in this neorealist classic, which has a very minimalistic skin, but the core of a dozen other masterpieces.
The Wolf's rating:
24 8.2 8.2 Made almost completely without dialogue, Naked Island is one of the most beautiful things on this planet. It has very little actual story and so it gives the visual bombing even more room in the film. The essence of cinema in a nutshell.
The Wolf's rating:
122 6.9 6.1 Masterful satire of fasict government and society in general gone wrong. Those of power will do anything to get even more power and the little one suffers and eats shit and gets fucked up the ass. Literally.
The Wolf's rating:
372 7.2 7.4 Lynch makes depression into art. Gorgeous b/w scenery and a storyline that makes no sense. Can't find any better directorial debut.
The Wolf's rating:
148 8.3 7.7 Godard's beautiful use of scope and colors amazes me every single time. In Pierrot le fou, in my opinion, he did the best visual art he ever made.
The Wolf's rating:
73 8.8 8 Lyric tale about love (and ghosts). One of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen.
The Wolf's rating:
194 8.3 8 A voyage to the heart of darkness in the heart-breaking landscapes of Southern America. Contains one of cinema's all-time greatest performances by Kinski.
The Wolf's rating:
551 8.1 8.4 A portrait of a boxer is more of a study of paranoia that leads to domestic violence. Scorsese does not show LaMotta as an animal, but certainly doesn't glorify him. The portrait is as realistic as it can be. Scorsese's seminal film.
The Wolf's rating:
79 8.4 8.1 The American Dream... Yeah, dream is surely the right word for it after you see Stroszek. Bruno S' performance is simply brilliant.
The Wolf's rating:
35 7.2 7.8 Minimalism at its finest and intensive as hell. Also a great satire about fucked up health care system.
The Wolf's rating:
300 8.5 8.4 Superb study of man's sin for dishonestness. Everyone is a liar. Intensive and thought provoking masterpiece.
The Wolf's rating:
100 8 7.4 Forget the endless bloodstreams, just look at the real surrealistic beauty and atmosphere Jodorowsky has created and be amazed.
The Wolf's rating:
149 7.9 7.9 Beautiful and very different serial killer film. Malick's debut is also his finest hour.
The Wolf's rating:
1747 8.2 8.5 Extremely accurate satire about the dark tomorrow. McDowell's performance is unforgettable.
The Wolf's rating:
1155 7.9 8.4 A big mystery as a story, bigger than life as a film. What the heck is humankind anyway?
The Wolf's rating:
1105 8 8.6 Another masterpiece about the heart of darkness. Propably Coppola's greatest achievment.
The Wolf's rating:
238 8.2 8.4 The true masterpiece of film noir. Welles is hauntingly brilliant in his role.
The Wolf's rating:
26 8.6 8 Heart-warming family saga which perfectly points out the true family values.
The Wolf's rating:
86 8.1 8 Dark, twisted and haunting film about two sisters who are bonded to each other by blood, but are emotionally too distant. There's an incest theme that makes the film in times very disturbing. Filled with symbolism and surreal elements, Tystnaden is one of Bergman's greatest achievments.

Description
Mini-series (TV-movies etc.) aren't listed here (except Dekalog) since they are Tv-titles and so I can't put them on this list. I could always make the list much larger, but it's best to keep it simple. The order is correct and I often make updates for the list. Hope you enjoy!
