 4166  7.7  8.6 Biased by nostalgia I put this movie in first place. An achievement in sci-fi, action and overall movie making.

2865 8.1 8.7 My favorite movie ever? No. Best movie ever made? Probably not. The best movie I have ever watched? I might consider it.
One cannot understand this movie with words, it must be seen and rewatched totally focused to understand the masterpiece behind it. The ending is shocking, and don't come saying you already saw it coming from miles away. And we are actually continually being hinted at the "truth", I admit that. Veed's rating:
 
2093 8.3 8.5 WOW! One of the most surprising twists in one of the most well-directed thrillers with one of the most unexpected endings I've ever seen. Simply fantastic movie, among my favorites list.
This movie makes it official, Sir Hitchcock and Jimmy Stewart are now my favorite Director/Actor partnership of all time. Veed's rating:
4167 8.1 8.3 Once again Tarantino's crazy ideas work. Bending comedy with war tragedy, Inglorious Basterds is a masterfully directed movie that makes suspense movies and horror villains look like Sesame Street and the Cookie Monster, respectively.
Veed's rating:
2575 7.8 8.5 Another sequel that raised the bar. Transformed a sweating and suspenseful story into a thrilling and desperate action ride.
Veed's rating:
5203 8.1 8.7 The perfect example of perfect story telling, suspense and brutal crime scenes investigation. Also with outstanding performances.
Veed's rating:
1105 8.6 8.5 With no doubt the greatest Fritz' cinematic masterpiece. A thriller with a very powerful theme and with such a heavy and disturbing atmosphere that will surprise and shock you.
Veed's rating:
4264 7.3 8.1 A true classic, a thrilling fear-inducing experience.
Veed's rating:
3998 7.9 8.4 A great movie with with a very original concept. Two illusionists constantly trying to prove who is the superior one, a fight that will lead to an unhealthy obsession with drastic consequences.

3197 7.7 8 Martin Scorsese explores new ground with his much-well deserved favorite actor of this last decade in another movie that raised the bar of its genre. A psychological thriller disguised as a noir-film shows that Scorsese only knows how to keep getting better while trying new things. Such a great director making better and better movies is remarkable.

2029 8.5 8.7 Superb movie indeed... I can see why it has got so much praise. The simple plot, calm mood and suspenseful development completely pulled me in. The very cool presence of one of the greatest actors ever, also adds a lot more awesome points to this amazing story.
Veed's rating:
1393 8.4 8.5 Crazy funny action spy thriller and a very unique one at that even for Alfred Hitchcock. The characters and the story are pretty solid and together with the movie To Catch a Thief you can clearly see where they went to form the basis for James Bond (based on Cary Grant's very elegant performances)
I can see why this one is also among Hitchcock's most popular. Veed's rating:
3372 6.9 7.7 A super intelligent and brutal movie with a brilliant direction and twists.
Veed's rating:
 
6084 7.5 8.2 The most unexpected ending in the history of cinema and a disturbing perfeclty directed story.
Veed's rating:
4117 8.1 8.6 Hard to watch, complex story, the end will make you dropp your jaw... or should I say the beggining?
Veed's rating:
2284 7.1 7.6 The best performance of Tom Cruise I have seen, a cold movie with a great concept.
Veed's rating:
7491 8.4 8.9 It's not the best movie ever. It's surprisingly good though, the ending is so freaking satisfying.
Veed's rating:
1585 7.3 7.7 Ok no matter what you may think about this movie in the ending, it will leave you thinking until the very last twist. Amazing how David Fincher can make 3 distinct incredibly intelligent and unexpected thrillers one after the other.
Veed's rating:
4709 7.7 8.1 One of the most inventive and crazy psychological thrillers I have seen. Doesn't matter how many times you watch it, you will interpret it in a different way every time and always miss something.
Veed's rating:
2003 6.5 7.1 I loved this movie, the concept is not original, but there's not too many movies out there with this kind of first-person camera work and the effects make this an amazing thrilling view.
Veed's rating:
3152 7.9 8.2 One of the greatest villains in the history of cinema.
Veed's rating:
1135 6.9 7.3 The only truly horror movie I have seen (mind you, I have not seen many). It has all the elements a horror movie should have, excellently done and incredibly realistic: violent, frightening, disturbing, hopeless, no supernatural nonesense.
Veed's rating:
1451 6.9 7.4 The most disturbing psychological thriller I have seen. Unexpected twists. Avoid the sequels at all cost.
Veed's rating:
5237 8.1 8.7 A landmark in the history of serial killers.
Veed's rating:
107 7.8 7.8 Fritz Lang has a special skill for making movies with suspense and obscure characters. This is one of those.
Veed's rating:
1650 7.3 7.7 Very interesting bank robbery movie with great performances.
Veed's rating:
4197 8.2 8.4 Tarantino's first movie, but it feels just like one more Tarantino: Original, unique style, amazing dialogue.
Veed's rating:
564 8 8 One of the most obscure Hitchcock movies I've seen... it's never meant to be a mystery story, but a simple narrative, since the beginning, about how a hideous manipulative man could cheat a so very much lovable family.
Veed's rating:
335 7.3 7.5 One of my favorite performances by Cary Grant in a very entertaining and mysterious story that left me in doubt until the very end. Not a very well-known or high-praised Hitchcock.
Veed's rating:
3089 8.3 8.6 A very good good movie, but just like The Good, The Bad and The Ugly ,it didn't wow me... taking into account both are some of the most acclaimed movies in history, I was a little underwhelmed (most likely due to very high expectations).
Though I can see how it revolutionized and reinvented a genre back then, being a staple for B movies today, that with more nudity and violence still can't reach the status of Psycho. I guess it's not very much my style. Still among Hitchcock's best though, no discussion about that. Veed's rating:
2225 7.4 7.8 Holy crap! This movie was a shock! Having watched a bunch of Hitchcock movies before, I had somewhat medium expectations about this one... and boy did it surprise me!
The most notable things about this movie is the incredible cast, the very gripping (very simplistic) story and the fact that it was one of the very few movies where I could truly feel the terror! Veed's rating:
906 8 8.2 The plan was perfect, but it backfired. Incredibly well-directed thriller with a very good cast. The ending was so satisfying!
Veed's rating:
827 8 8.1 A very experimental movie from what I've heard, and from what it can be seen as well. The story is pretty original and interesting, and the tension can almost be palpable throughout the movie! It's incredible what Sir Hitchcock and Jimmy Stewart could pull-off together back in the days... as well as all the entire great cast in this movie.
Veed's rating:
707 6.8 7.2 A movie I watched many years ago and one of the first movis with Samuel L. Jackson that I never forgot. The suspense in this movie was mind-blowind, it left me on the edge of my sit the whole time and I was somewhat surprised by the twists.
I probably enjoyed this movie so much because at the time it was something new for me, probably one of the first of the genre I watched. Veed's rating:
6620 7.1 8 Ah... I still remember when it first came out. It was so antecipated and hyped, but it sure lived up to them, after all we're talking about real dinosaurs! This movie has great scenes.
Veed's rating:
483 7.8 7.6 It will mess with your mind. Incredible and unexpected twists.
Veed's rating:
3889 7.1 7.7 Another intelligent movie with a very unusual concept. Interesting and unexpected since I've never seen anything like it.
Veed's rating:
3383 8 8.3 Ridley Scott's great story telling in a stunning sci-fi setting.
Veed's rating:
 
3474 6.7 7.1 Another unique movie, and the best performance from Will Smith. Very interesting post-apocalyptic scenario.
Veed's rating:
2161 6 6.5 Brilliant as its predecessor, I just don't think it is as good. More gore-ridden.
Veed's rating:
3350 6.2 6.7 Hardcore suspense hard to find now-a-days. A lesser "Sixth Sense".
