Lord of the rings is best movie ever, because of all awards he takes for images, sounds, music, and pictures. Acting also.. so nothing cant compare with LOTR.
OK, how can I explain this without sounding like I'm trying to defend it. The IMDB top 250 list is user generated, so it's film fans and not critics or film scholars making it. All anyone has to do to rate a movie is sign in to the site for a free membership. Also since most of the users are younger, that is why 32 of the top 50 movies were released since 1990.
Imagine how many people who watched certain number of films don't know IMDB exists. Their taste could, but not necessary match this list. Than, how many people are aware IMDB exists but don't bother to register and rate. On the end, how many of them don't find it relevant. I say, IMDB is voice of max 5% of people film related. Not even close for qualifying to rate Best of All Time. Plus, films are made in many countries other than U.S. production-which make 90% of this list. Conclusion: not relevant due to insufficient number of people, who are located in small geographic area which can not be adressed as World.
Out Of Africa, Jaws, Lawrence Of Arabia, Marty, Gone With The Wind and The Best Years Of Our Lives are some of my favorites that did not make the list.
My favourites are 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, Godfather, Dr. Strangelove, LoTR trilogy, Godfather part 2,Taxi driver, Shining, Life of brian and Holy grail, Alien
Mine 1- The Godfather I & II 2- The Shawshank Redemption 3- Goodfellas 4- Braveheart 5- Fight Club 6- Seven 7- Forest Gump 8- The Prestige 9- American Beauty 10- Green Mile 11- scent of a woman 12- Snatch 13- Castaway 14- The Schindler's list 15- Catch me if you can 16- Training day 17- Saving private Ryan 18- Troy 19- Heat 20- The notebook
The godfather movies are known to be better than the books while the Lord of the rings movie especially the second and third deviate too heavily from the books to be considered that
@nathanakpe Sometimes deviation from source is a good thing, or just necessary. I can’t imagine LotR following the books to a T actually making decent cinema. The Godfather leaves a great deal out from the novel too and it flows much better because of it. This said, Puzo was also on the screenplay so yeah
Schindler's list, life is beautiful and Jurassic Park would do it for me. Jurassic park was something else in terms of cinema, sensational and revolutionary.
Sei lá, vcs podem ter gostado, até que gostei, mas não acho esse primor todo. Pra mim não tá nem no top 20, cidade de deus, só pra dar um exemplo, é melhor. Todos que passaram nessa lista acho melhor. Definitivamente um sonho de liberdade ganhou o prêmio de filme mais superestimado da história. Nossa... lista de Schindler, até Titanic é melhor.
Another Movie that should be on this list is "The Passion of the Christ" in terms of: cinematography, direction, acting, screenplay, music, Production Design, Costume Design, etc. It's a masterpiece.
There's some movies that always go to the top of the list whenever you hear about favorite movies. Each one of us have our favorites and it makes a big difference on how old we are and how long we've been watching movies. Myself as far as really great movies I have to showcase; Schindler's list, Ben-Hur, Godfather 1 and 2, Forrest Gump, Space Odyssey, Casablanca, Lord of the Rings trilogy, Lawrence of Arabia, Titanic at the top of my list. So many great movies have been made over the years and I've been fortunate enough to see most of these on the big screen when they were first released.
Guys, if you want your favorite movies to be on IMDB's top, well, go vote for them. You know how it works, right? Also it's a Top 250 originally, so your favorite movie might already be there.
Meu top 20: 01° The Godfather l & ll (1972) 02° Intolerance (1916) 03° The Human Condition l & lll (1959) 04° Citizen Kane (1941) 05° Come and See (1985) 06° 12 Angry Men (1957) 07° The Searchers (1956) 08° Andrei Rublev (1966) 09° Mulholland Drive (2001) 10° The Seventh Seal (1957) 11° Satantango (1994) 12° Un Homme Qui Dort (1974) 13° 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) 14° Stalker (1979) 15° Lawrence of Arabia (1962) 16° Ran (1985) 17° Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter...

Beyond view rating, a movie about nostalgia and childhood,which represent a certain part of all of us,is more precious than a horror movie with a hostile alien...
Shocking list. No Kubrick, Lang, Murneau, Fellini, Bergman, Wells, Hitchcock only 1 Kurasawa. I could go on. Most of the greatest directors and films of all time missing. There’s no account for bad taste.
IMDB will measure the average taste of the average American. It's like the Oscars - phony melodrama and pretentiously clever sci-fi is as far as you'll get.
Great list for anyone who's never seen a movie made before 1970, when some of the best movies ever made were produced. This list is for people who don't realize the world existed before they were teenagers.
There's plenty of films on here that were made before 1970. Probably more than there should be considering if you use logic, the majority of people that will use the IMDB site are most likely under the age of 50 given modern films a more recency bias. These are only the top 50 films from a list of 250 which are listed like this because of users votes. This is list is for people who enjoy films from every era of history and not just whatever you enjoyed as a teenager. Funny how irony works ✌️ Edit: 9/50 films that were made before 1970 with several just a few years shy of that isn't a bad figure at all and proves that the old classics still have relevance to people who love cinema.
The Goonies, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Alien, Aliens, Some Like It Hot, Sunset Boulevard, No Country For Old Men, There Will Be Blood, Casino, Witness, The Blues Brothers, Looper, Raising Arizona, Stand By Me.
Nice list, my list would definitely have North by Northwest, Vertigo, Rear Window and Dial M for Murder in the top 10, alongside A New Hope, Empire Strikes aback and Casablanca.
I have my top 4 movies no one is allowed to hate in front of me: 4) L.A. Confidental 3) Jurassic Park 2) Dune (2021 version) 1) Apollo 13 It's my subjective oppinion, but I think at least Apollo should be on the list
I'm Gen X so its fun to see how many of these i got to see in theatres when i was young (i think 13 of them) and also sad, because i know its harder & more expensive for people to see movies in theatres these days (including myself)
Law Abiding Citizen. I'm pretty sure the rating of 7.4 is only cause of the disappoining ending. Other than that, the movie is a creative masterpiece and deserves a 9
I've always found the difference between the IMDb top films and the Letterboxd top films interesting. With IMDb, the first foreign film comes in at number 21 with Seven Samurai. Within the Letterboxd top 21, there are 12 foreign films; 57% of the top 21 films on Letterboxd are foreign (more than half) compared IMDb's 4%.
That’s one of the big reasons why I prefer Letterboxd, I think it’s way more accurate. Imdb is definitely for mainstream moviegoers, the only reason I use it anymore is for TV shows
Life of Brian 😂 Dumb and Dumber 😁 Rain Man 😁In the name of the father🍀my left foot 🍀 Groundhog Day😂 Breakfast Club🔥The General 🍀 Scarface ❤️ Carlitos Way💎A Bronx Tale💯 Who Framed Roger Rabbit 😆 The Elephant Man 😂 A hard day's night 🎸 Some of my favourites❤️💎🌍
Schindler's List number 1 for me. Marathon Man, Boys From Brazil, Cool Hand Luke, Mississipi Burning, Alien, The Sting, and Misery would be in my top 20.
My top 10: 1. Raiders of the Lost Ark, 2. Star Wars 3 and 4, 5. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, 6. The Green Mile 7. The 10 Commandments 8. The Godfather 9. Black Panther 10. Avitar I will watch any of these movies any time they are on TV; and some I have on DVD
For me 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly' is the best movie of all time I guess I have watched it more than 100 times, and I will watch it again many times If I had only 3 hours to live, I would watch this movie😊
Also this goes off IMDB which is a film database and this video is only depicting the top 50 out of there top 250 list which is based off users ratings. There's loads of films on the list that are not in English such as City of God, Pans Labyrinth and Oldboy.

Missing a whole lot of great movies you youngster need to watch The four feathers 1934,The Good earth 1937,Cabin in the sky 1943,Lawrence of Arabia1962,Dr Zhivago 1965.Been watching movies for 60 years now I find these to be very good movies maybe the best.
@@darkorange5164 just because people like it doesn't make it the best movie objectively. It's just a standard "feel good" movie which main premise is to make people emotional
@@PolishGod1234 no body said nothing about "best movie objectively" it is just the best rated movie on the website. Why are you so hot to prove people wrong? You are boring
@@darkorange5164 you clearly touched the subject that there are objectively no best movies, so don't try to pretend you didn't. For some reason I can't see your first comment now, I can blame RUclips for that
@@maiden5427 I hold the personal belief that a person may only criticise a film if they have watched the whole thing. The ending can sometimes fix everything but that wasn’t the case for the titanic
this is based on user votes, so i can easily see why Clockwork Orange and other more provocative and unorthodox movies aren't there because some people downvoted it for no big reason
What about "The sheltering sky",Crying freedom","Unbearable lightness of beeing","Out of Africa","Dances with wolves","Chinatown","West side story","Amadeus","Eternal beloved","A bridge too far","Swimming pool",trilogy "Tricolore","The Canal","Firemen ball" and mamy,many other movies..?
I knew Shawshank Redemption would be #1 my favorite movie. If your ever in Mandsfield Ohio take a tour of the prison where some of it was filmed very cool
The Ten Commandments, Ben-Hur, ALIEN, Guess Who's Coming To Dinner, Unfaithful, Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein, Galaxy Quest and of course....Mars Attacks!
1979...Alien el octavo pasajero...dió origen al Terror Espacial...y todo lo alienígena creado por el genio loco de GUIGER...una mezcla de seres y elementos, sexo, máquinas y degradación.... Una OBRA DE ARTE
Tout cela est bien subjectif - Autant de classements autant de films différents - " 2001 Odysée de l'Espace" considérait par beaucoup comme l'un des plus grands films de tous les temps, ou bien " Once Upen a Time in America " par exemple, absent de ce classement - Autant de sensibilités différentes et les classements sont totalement différents -
After watching this list, I must say that I am shocked by four films: inception, back to the future, interstellar and most Prestig. I never would have guessed that these films would make the top 50 list. and I must also say that I was very surprised by such a high position of the second part of The Godfather. Very
My top 5 would be 1) Amadeus 2) The Seven Samurai 3) Vertigo 4) Paths of Glory 5) maybe The Godfather In my top 50 might be: Citizen Kane, Casablanca, The Godfather Part 2, Apocalypse Now, Rope, Pulp Fiction, Matrix, Mad Max 2, Empire Strikes Back, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, City of God, Silence of the Lambs, Ran, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Blade Runner, Alien & maybe Saving Private Ryan, Schindler's List, Seven, Fight Club or Forrest Gump. Probably among more Tarantino, Kubrick, Kurosawa & Hitchcock's films, and probably I'm forgetting a lot of magnificent films. Nausicaa & Castle in the Sky are better films than Chihiro, in my opinion. Return of the King is the worst Lord of the Rings movie, in my opinion. Nolan's films in this list would be out of my top 50 (& of my top 100, but Memento is pretty good). Interstellar is a joke, it's boring & stupid, in my opinion. & #1 Shawsank Redeption isn't bad, but don't make it to my top 50...
star wars trilogy will outlive any of these. timeless. superman with christopher gave me the chills as a kid. i watched all the supermans on tv black and white. chris nailed it
Did I miss Glory? Should be on here with Dances With Wolves and Braveheart. Let's throw in No Country for Old Men, The Revenant, and 3:10 to Yuma (Russel Crow version). And my personal favorites get little love because of the violence and brutality, but Tarantino movies like Django Unchained, The Hateful Eight and all the Kill Bills are my all timers.
I don't think that Top Gun would be a rate higher than 8 but is actually a nostalgic movie whose marked generations since released. By the way, Top Gun Maverick is one of the best movies released in the last years since the "streaming" is saturating (or just because is a new era of genre) the Superheroes.
#1 Once Upon a Time in the West #2 Melody #3 The Petrified Forest #4 The Seventh Seal #5 Predestination #6 Coherence #7 Source Code #8 Facing the Giants #9 God's Not Dead 2 #10 Prince Caspian
Who else knew Shawshank Redemption would be on this list......🇿🇦

Princess Bride should honestly be on the list... just give that movie a try; very underrated.

Relying on critics doesn’t help much either. Most lean left, and rate movies from their political lens instead of actual merit.
This is a lie, because the critic can vote on imdb.
Thanks for the clarification on the IMDB, otherwise, how could you justify a list of the best movies without Ben Hur on it.
All lists are based on opinion. There are no objective lists so there is no right or wrong. Please try to understand this very fundamental point.

Alien (1979). I'd like to think it set a standard for Sci-fi/Horror up until the late 90's.
i agree,great sci fi
It hasn’t changed, “Shawshank Redemption” is still comfortably sitting on top. It’s been leading at #1 for a while
A little Overrated.
The good ending saved that film
It's an excellent film. But the best?

Whiplash, The Usual Suspects, and 12 Angry Men are my Top 3 Films of all time.
Life of Brian 😂 Dumb and Dumber 😁 Rain Man 😁In the name of the father🍀my left foot 🍀 Groundhog Day😂 Breakfast Club🔥The General 🍀 Scarface ❤️ Carlitos Way💎A Bronx Tale💯 Who Framed Roger Rabbit 😆 The Elephant Man 😂 A hard day's night 🎸

Oh, yess, breakfast club...
Spaceballs The Movie is such a great comedy! Masterpiece!
Schindler's List number 1 for me. Marathon Man, Boys From Brazil, Cool Hand Luke, Mississipi Burning, Alien, The Sting, and Misery would be in my top 20.
Jaws, Braveheart, Passion of Christ, Master and Commander, Space Odyssey 2001,
seeing saving private ryan and the departed was giving me peace at heart.. best movies and best actors in it ever!
My top 10:
1. Raiders of the Lost Ark,
2. Star Wars 3 and 4,
5. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly,
6. The Green Mile
7. The 10 Commandments
8. The Godfather
9. Black Panther
10. Avitar
I will watch any of these movies any time they are on TV; and some I have on DVD
The Green Mile is peak
For me 'The Good, The Bad and
The Ugly' is the best movie of all
time
I guess I have watched it more
than 100 times, and I will watch
it again many times
If I had only 3 hours to live,
I would watch this movie😊
Your description is wrong. It shoud be Top 50 English Movies.....
Parasite is South Korean
There's plenty of non English speaking films on the list... 🤦
Also this goes off IMDB which is a film database and this video is only depicting the top 50 out of there top 250 list which is based off users ratings. There's loads of films on the list that are not in English such as City of God, Pans Labyrinth and Oldboy.
My top 10
1 godfather part 1 9.7
2 dark knight 9.5
3 pulp fiction 9.2
4 shawshank redep. 9.0
5 Schindler list 8.9
6 gladiator 8.8
7 good the bad and ugly 8.6
8 lord of rings ret. Of king 8.4
9 lord of ring fellow. 8.4
10 interstellar 8.2
Why do you only watch popular movies?
Missing a whole lot of great movies you youngster need to watch The four feathers 1934,The Good earth 1937,Cabin in the sky 1943,Lawrence of Arabia1962,Dr Zhivago 1965.Been watching movies for 60 years now I find these to be very good movies maybe the best.
Old movies are extremely tedious and boring. Youngsters won't like these movies
1 Godfather 2, 2 Shawshank Redemption 3 Godfather 1 4.Forest Gump 5 Casablanca
2001: A Space Odyssey?
A Clockwork Orange?
Dr. Strangelove?
Taxi driver?
The Shining?
Life of Brian?
Citizen Kane?
What a joke of a list
Serious lack of kubrick
all overrated shits
Training day is my best film. Then street kings, then T2, Casino, gangster no1, sexy beast. Road house, top gun. Rocky 4, Rambo 3.💪👍
Shawshank... #1... Yes!!!
It doesn't deserve that place, it's just a good movie
@@PolishGod1234 aperantly it does because it has the highest rating and it is what people love. Are you dumb?
@@darkorange5164 just because people like it doesn't make it the best movie objectively. It's just a standard "feel good" movie which main premise is to make people emotional
@@PolishGod1234 no body said nothing about "best movie objectively" it is just the best rated movie on the website. Why are you so hot to prove people wrong? You are boring
@@darkorange5164 you clearly touched the subject that there are objectively no best movies, so don't try to pretend you didn't. For some reason I can't see your first comment now, I can blame RUclips for that
The shawshank redemption ❤❤❤😢
I would love to know what criteria was used to gauge these films?
I think TITANIC is never want like IMD rating.. 😅 cuz it's already wins everyone heart..😍
terrible movie
@@dementedtimtam😂 lol terrible movie but you sat through the whole 3 hours
@@maiden5427 I hold the personal belief that a person may only criticise a film if they have watched the whole thing. The ending can sometimes fix everything but that wasn’t the case for the titanic
@@dementedtimtam What didn't you like about the movie
I love that music.
My #one will always be Once Upon a Time In the West.
Yes, that is my number 1, best film ever made.
How about the 2024 movie 'After Her Smile'? It's sure to be remembered as one of the all-time greats.
Unforgiven should be in there, same with 2001 A-Space-Odyssey and A Clockwork Orange and many, many more…
It is based on user votes, so there is no "should".
Agree with 2001 and Clockwork Orange. My favourite movies of all time
this is based on user votes, so i can easily see why Clockwork Orange and other more provocative and unorthodox movies aren't there because some people downvoted it for no big reason
What about "The sheltering sky",Crying freedom","Unbearable lightness of beeing","Out of Africa","Dances with wolves","Chinatown","West side story","Amadeus","Eternal beloved","A bridge too far","Swimming pool",trilogy "Tricolore","The Canal","Firemen ball" and mamy,many other movies..?
The Shawshank, o filme mais injustiçado da história
Ci
Como injustiçado? Todo mundo idolatra esse filme, ganhou Oscar e tá no primeiro lugar do imdb
@@andre6563 o Oscar de melhor filme em 95 foi para Forrest Gump
background music name?
Canon in D Major by Kevin Macleod
Citizen Kane, Ben Hur, Dances with Wolves, High Noon, The Searchers. Casablanca should be number 1. Who made this list, a 12 year old?
Personnally I ve highly regretted to watch Citizen Kane. I was really boring. This movie took me 3 hours of my fucking life.
Its a User Rating on the biggest Rating Site in the world my dude
Movies with sad ending like grave of fireflies, parasite, gladiator,the green mile and many more will always be in top lists.
I knew Shawshank Redemption would be #1 my favorite movie. If your ever in Mandsfield Ohio take a tour of the prison where some of it was filmed very cool
I would've put "Mr. Holland's Opus" in there somewhere. A little schmaltzy, but Richard Dreyfuss is mesmerizing.
Dr Stranglove ?
I'm really wonder which movie was top on the list before "The Shawshank Redemption" ?
Probably The Godfather
My top 3:
1. Schindler's List
2. Apocalypto
3. Titanic
The Ten Commandments, Ben-Hur, ALIEN, Guess Who's Coming To Dinner, Unfaithful, Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein, Galaxy Quest and of course....Mars Attacks!
Alien el octavo pasajero es una puta obra maestra cinematográfica. La mejor película de terror de todos los tiempos. Se merece estar en la lista.
1979...Alien el octavo pasajero...dió origen al Terror Espacial...y todo lo alienígena creado por el genio loco de GUIGER...una mezcla de seres y elementos, sexo, máquinas y degradación....
Una OBRA DE ARTE
Interstellar movie ❤
Tout cela est bien subjectif - Autant de classements autant de films différents - " 2001 Odysée de l'Espace" considérait par beaucoup comme l'un des plus grands films de tous les temps, ou bien " Once Upen a Time in America " par exemple, absent de ce classement - Autant de sensibilités différentes et les classements sont totalement différents -
Excalibur definitely belongs on this list.
I wish the Train was included ,Burt Lancaster,also Heat of the night.
Good choices!
Papillon used to be called one of the greatest movies ever made, but has since been forgotten.
I am also surprised that citizen Kane wasn’t listed.
Legal ver que cidade de deus é bem avaliado no imdb
Cidade de Deus é muito mais do que um bom filme nacional, é um clássico do cinema moderno como um todo
Filme bost@ 😂
@@r.t.8559 Esteja ciente de que você é minoria
E mo ruim esse filme
As pessoas que criticam o filme não sabem nem 1% do significado profundo e as críticas sociais desse filme, é uma obra de arte em todos os sentidos
How many of them were made in the last decade?
Interstellar (2014) and a few more.
what about Amadeus ?!!
for me, the best
Love Amadeus. A perfect movie.
Amadeus is so good!
You don't include rocketry the nmbi Narayan effect it has 8.7 IMDb rating
Why is “Gone with the Wind” not on this?
Obviously because it doesn't have a high enough rating. Logic.
8.2 rating
After watching this list, I must say that I am shocked by four films: inception, back to the future, interstellar and most Prestig.
I never would have guessed that these films would make the top 50 list. and I must also say that I was very surprised by such a high position of the second part of The Godfather. Very
My top 5 would be 1) Amadeus 2) The Seven Samurai 3) Vertigo 4) Paths of Glory 5) maybe The Godfather
In my top 50 might be: Citizen Kane, Casablanca, The Godfather Part 2, Apocalypse Now, Rope, Pulp Fiction, Matrix, Mad Max 2, Empire Strikes Back, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, City of God, Silence of the Lambs, Ran, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Blade Runner, Alien & maybe Saving Private Ryan, Schindler's List, Seven, Fight Club or Forrest Gump. Probably among more Tarantino, Kubrick, Kurosawa & Hitchcock's films, and probably I'm forgetting a lot of magnificent films.
Nausicaa & Castle in the Sky are better films than Chihiro, in my opinion.
Return of the King is the worst Lord of the Rings movie, in my opinion.
Nolan's films in this list would be out of my top 50 (& of my top 100, but Memento is pretty good). Interstellar is a joke, it's boring & stupid, in my opinion.
& #1 Shawsank Redeption isn't bad, but don't make it to my top 50...
My top 5 are
1. 2001 A Space Odyssey
2. A Clockwork Orange
3. The Godfather
4. Dr. Strangelove
5. LoTR trilogy
@@PolishGod1234 Dr. Strangelove is magnificent!
@@fernaarn3557 yeah
@@fernaarn3557 Yea you forgot Rear Window.
good picks
Nice video, good luck with the channel!
Where was dumb & dumber 2 though 😂 :)
Where are :
Titanic, Ben Hur and ET ???
Just to mention some.
More importants are The parasite and japanese animes
@@adammozsolics7097parasite was on this…
What about the grand Budapest hotel, great cast and movie!
Lame
star wars trilogy will outlive any of these. timeless. superman with christopher gave me the chills as a kid. i watched all the supermans on tv black and white. chris nailed it
Did I miss Glory? Should be on here with Dances With Wolves and Braveheart. Let's throw in No Country for Old Men, The Revenant, and 3:10 to Yuma (Russel Crow version).
And my personal favorites get little love because of the violence and brutality, but Tarantino movies like Django Unchained, The Hateful Eight and all the Kill Bills are my all timers.
Top Gun, Independence Day, and Raiders of The Lost Ark. Add those on the list and I’m satisfied.
I don't think that Top Gun would be a rate higher than 8 but is actually a nostalgic movie whose marked generations since released. By the way, Top Gun Maverick is one of the best movies released in the last years since the "streaming" is saturating (or just because is a new era of genre) the Superheroes.
Raiders of The Lost Ark is on place 56.
Independence Day?🤣
I love Top Gun, but would it really be as successful without the killer soundtrack?
#1 Once Upon a Time in the West
#2 Melody
#3 The Petrified Forest
#4 The Seventh Seal
#5 Predestination
#6 Coherence
#7 Source Code
#8 Facing the Giants
#9 God's Not Dead 2
#10 Prince Caspian
Happy to see at least one Charlie Chaplin movie...
12 Angry men is an all time favorite of mine such a good film.
Shawshank Redemption 👌 but not commercially
The truth, I have not seen it, but I looked for it and the argument is really good. And being based on a Stephen King novel, that's a good sign.
@@karlasanguineti9328 you should see it, nice polite movie unlike Quentin's movie
Came out same year as Forrest Gump and Pulp Fiction.
