1	28 Days Later 2002, R) I enjoyed the style of this movie. Very minimal and yet very full of emotion. There's very little zombies here, so Dawn of the Dead and Dead Rising fans won't think much of this, but I quite liked it.

26	Collateral 2004, R)
27	Die Hard 3: With a Vengeance 1995, R)
28	Disturbia 2007, PG-13) This can be categorized as a teen slasher flick, but I love the way it's 100% in sync with the time in terms of the habits of a typical american teen and his preference in technology. This is a very good movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
29	Dumb and Dumber 1997, PG-13)
30	Face/Off 1997, R)
31	Fight Club 1999, R)
32	Final Destination 2000, R)

45	King Kong 2005, PG-13)
46	Kung Fu Hustle 2004, R)
47	Knocked Up 2007, R) I didn't like the subject matter of the film, but it's just riotously funny at all times. I keep remembering the scenes so many days after I saw the movie - it's been a long time since I saw a movie this good!
48	Liar Liar 1997, PG-13)
49	Legally Blonde 2001, PG-13)
50	Little Miss Sunshine 2006, R)
51	Live Free or Die Hard 2007, PG-13) I haven't had this much fun with an action movie since True Lies and, well, Die Hard with a Vengeance. I thought the technology-based plot might come out cliched and dilute the essence of the series, but it didn't The plot is still quite basic, but it doesn't spoil the movie for you. The F35 vs. truck scene was off the hook! :)
52	Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels 1999, R) I have no idea what to say about this movie other than that I totally enjoyed it!
53	Lord of War 2005, R)
54	Man on Fire 2004, R)

64	Ocean's Eleven 1960, Unrated)
65	Office Space 1999, R)
66	Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl 2003, PG-13) This is, without a doubt, one of the most entertaining and satisfying movies ever made. Everything from the script to the characters to the presentation is a perfect 10 - I have NO complaints whatsoever. This is the best in the Pirates trilogy, which may change with the release of the fourth movie a few days later...

125	The Mummy 1999, PG-13)
126	The Mummy Returns 2001, PG-13)
127	The Prestige 2006, PG-13)
128	The Rock 1996, R)
129	The Shawshank Redemption 1994, R) This movie deserves every bit of the top spot at IMdb's Top 250 list. Fantastic performances by Robbins, Freeman and gang. I'd watch it over and over again. And you should too.
130	The Sixth Sense 1999, PG-13)
131	The Terminator 1984, R)
132	The Transporter 2002, PG-13) Now when I go back to it, I can't see what the big deal behind the movie was. Hasn't anyone complained about how little actual transportation occurs in this movie? The action wasn't even all that interesting, if not downright silly (oil? LOL). Shu Qi provides good eye candy, but even her bad English comes in the way. 'The Transporter' is a package that must be returned to sender.
133	The Truman Show 1998, PG)
134	The Usual Suspects 1995, R)
135	The Village 2004, PG-13)
136	There's Something About Mary 1998, R)
137	Toy Story 1995, G)
138	Training Day 2001, R)
139	Trainspotting 1996, R)
140	Transformers 2007, PG-13) I love bots and mechs and even though I haven't really followed the Transformers universe much, I loved this movie. The sight and sound of giant 50-foot tall metal crushing against another left me jaw-gaping. Watch this!
141	Troy 2004, R)
142	Underworld 2003, R)
143	Van Helsing 2004, PG-13)
144	Wedding Crashers 2005, R)
145	White Chicks 2004, PG-13)
146	Wild Hogs 2007, PG-13) This is a pretty funny, feel good movie that connects with most middle-aged folk. I'd give it a full four stars, but there's a little overdose of gayness in the first half of the movie that's just unnecessary.
147	X-Men 2000, PG-13) A great, first foray into the X-Men movies. You must watch it again after watching X-Men Origins: Wolverine. It's more fun!
148	X2: X-Men United 2003, PG-13) Magnificent! I loved how the good and the bad X-Men have to unite together to battle a bigger baddie - Stryker. Insane effects. I loved Nightcrawler! This is the best X-Men movie ever.
149	X-Men: The Last Stand 2006, PG-13) Lots of crash, boom, bang, lots of effects, lots of interesting mutants (Kitty Pryde FTW!) and an respectably grand ending, but The Last Stand just doesn't have the sharpness or punch of Singer's X2, which remains my favorite X-Men movie of all time.
150	XXX 2002, PG-13)
151	You've Got Mail 1998, PG)
152	Zoolander 2001, PG-13)
153	Eurotrip 2004, R) Eurotrip is, without a doubt, one of the greatest comedies I'll ever see in this lifetime. The locations, the characters, the events, the lingo, the music... EVERY SINGLE THING about this movie is ACE. I want a sixth star to click on for rating this movie, because five is clearly too low for Eurotrip.
154	Taken 2008, PG-13) Breathtaking, fast-paced, AWESOME action and a simple but strong plot. Liam Neeson kicks fucking ass! "I told you I'd find you." Damn, I loved this movie.
155	You Don't Mess with the Zohan 2008, PG-13) You Don't Mess With the Zohan is outrageously funny! I'm not saying it's as good as Stiller's Zoolander, but the very fact that I even put the two in the same sentence says a lot about Zohan. Unmissable!
156	The Dark Knight 2008, PG-13) This isn't the greatest Batman movie ever made. It's simply the greatest movie ever made, in every sense of the term. That obviously doesn't leave a whole lot more to say.
157	Slumdog Millionaire 2008, R) Amazing movie! This is the cityI see everyday, but through the eyes of Boyle, it's still a whole new world for me. Excellent performances by everyone in the film, though I couldn't figure out why Jamal has a UK accent in the movie. He was only a chaiwala at a call centre, not an executive, right? Anyway, special compliments to the beautiful Freida Pinto, who I know personally. This is a debut most actors wouldn't be able to dream of! Congratulations!
158	Pulp Fiction 1994, R)
159	Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi 1983, PG)
160	Tangled 2010, PG) I thoroughly enjoyed this movie from start to the end. I love the animation, the characters (Maximus!) and even the music. Tangled is a lovely, highly entertaining rendition of Rapunzel. I loved it.
161	The Green Hornet 2011, PG-13) I haven't seen the original Green Hornet TV series or heard the radio show or read the comics or whatever, so I approached the Gondry-directed movie with a completely open mind. I seriously enjoyed the movie - it was funny and it had a lot of action. If you don't like this movie, you're probably taking it too seriously!
162	Planet of the Apes 1968, G) There are very few original movies made around this period that the sequels and/or remakes don't do justice to and this 1968 Planet of the Apes is a shining example of that. The philosophy and emotion are the highlight of the movie. This is essential viewing of the 60's - you need to watch it! Tip: Avoid all the sequels.
