Léon (The Professional) 1994,  R)
Léon (The Professional)
One of my favs, inch perfect acting from all corners. Relationship developed on-screen beautifully between Reno and Portman. It has everything action scenes, slick thoughtful music, delicately constructed script flowing nicely over potentially difficult situations and of course one hell of a baddie in Oldman.
2
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back 1980,  PG)
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
The best star Wars film, great new characters, loads of spacefights, the so inviting planet Hoth, an imaginative cloud city. This is just non stop entertainment with new characters and the relationships between the three mains develop well with a great sense of wit and humour between han and leia, an absolute classic
3
The Pink Panther 1963,  Unrated)
The Pink Panther
Sellers in a role he is most comfortable with, a creation of pure genius was his character perfect in so many ways, not the funniest but all good things had to start somewhere, but it opened the book on one of cinemas greatest loveable fools
4
Crash 2005,  R)
Crash
Emotions running wild in this non stop entertainment roller coaster. Some great one off acting from all concerned and deliberately to the point direction, producing a slick Hollywood dusting over social problems that we all encounter in todays world. Very touching
5
The Untouchables 1987,  R)
The Untouchables
Not much a fan but an admirer of this slightly shocking and humerous touch on prohibition, all round solid acting but a little drawn out, still great fun fun with a bottle of jack
6
Time Bandits 1981,  PG)
7
Arlington Road 1999,  R)

29
Hot Fuzz 2006,  R)
30
The Millionairess 1961,  Unrated)
The Millionairess
Peter Sellers quietly does his bit in a fairly reasonable film, Sim is fantastically himself as the lawyer and Sophia Loren is just divine goddess lookalike. Simple plot that stretches nicely over the duration and the cast weave a bit of lighthearted humour. Her fathers mechanical voice and the kippershop are the highlights
