1. Batman Begins (2005)
The finest adaptation/origin of a comic super hero ever. Nolan created one of the most interesting and dark (Batman) universes in the cinema industry.

When I think of the first 2 Terminator movies I think of true classics, true gems, true masterpieces that cannot be remade better. Best Sci-Fi/Action movies I've seen.

17. Lethal Weapon (1987)
These series of movies defined a genre for me, the Lethal Weapon genre. It's a genre that can't be outdone in the combo of comedy, action, buddy cop and explosions.

Strongest point: Defined a genre... in the 80's.

45. The Matrix (1999)
Daring and revolutionary considering it's a "modern classic" as I see it. Entertaining and thoughtful, something I really appreciate in a movie. Though it's one of those franchises that spawned not-so-good sequels.

Strongest point: Highly original (although based in previous media), engaging and entertaining.

49. Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977)
I think that even those who don't like Star Wars understand and expect to see the franchise in a list of this kind.
