In no particular order here are a few of my vast amount of favourite movies. My two favourite directors by far is Tarantino and Guy Ritchie, only movie i havent seen by Tarantino is hateful 8.
The Warriors
The trailer does it no favours you really just need to watch it. I first seen it when i was about 9 by my grandad he got me on DVD alongside The Warriors PS2 game & GTA SA(Yeah i started young mostly beating up hookers as i didn't get the story) Seen the movie hundreds of time and know it word by word. Wanted nothing more than to be a warrior when i was younger XD
Snatch
Brilliant, funny, good music and it's about gangsters what else do you want in a movie?! Classic film by Ritchie. I prefer this to lock, stock and two smoking barrels i think its a lot funnier although they are both class flicks. Again you just need to watch it to get where i'm coming from. Its on netflix at the moment so give it a watch.
Trainspotting
Scottish film about a group of junkies from Edinburgh. you need to be Scottish to fully get it also it's good to see places you regularly see on the big screen. Funny at times, Serious at times but that's what makes the movie.
Chopper
@Thomas DeSimone
He's effing tops!!
I have a couple of his books now and just think he's a really funny guy. Hes the type of guy you wish you knew irl.
Bronson
True story on a guy who has spent more time in prison than Chopper which is really hard. Proper hard bastard who loves it fight, what makes this movie so good is how it's told.
