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.

The Godfather (1972)
The definite example of good movie making. Perfect direction, the best performances appearing in a movie, the best the 7th art has to offer.

Strongest point: Simply a masterpiece, the combination of the first 2 parts.

Spider-Man (2002)
I adore your friendly neighbourhood Spider-man as long as I remember and his movies show all his charisma and fun. Excellent adaptations and engaging stories.

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.

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.

You won't easily find a better combination of fluid animation and music than the one presented in the Kara no Kyoukai saga. Pure beauty, engaging story.

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.

I think that even those who don't like Star Wars understand and expect to see the franchise in a list of this kind.

Strongest point: Complex story, great effects.
