            Caveat: these are just movies I've seen. I acknowledge and accept that certain movies I haven't seen blow any and all of these out of the water.

            In no particular order:

            Monty Python's Life of Brian
            American Beauty
            L.A. Confidential
            Raiders of the Lost Ark
            The Empire Strikes Back
            The Silence of the Lambs
            Hamlet (Kenneth Branaugh version)
            Braveheart
            The Sixth Sense
            The Usual Suspects

            (Those first five sprang immediately to mind... if you asked me again tomorrow, I'd probably name a different second five... in fact, I just changed it now.)
