My favorite movie would be The Terminal starring Tom Hanks. I loved its story, casting, and it's just a heartwarming movie.

ROAD WARRIOR is THE film/movie of all time! It very artistically represents supply and demand, honor, power, trust, individuality, strength, and heart. It is a kaleidoscope of all things real. It is a representation of every scenario in minds eye. The movie illustrates the future based on the past. The characters are strong and memorable. This film was very well written, directed and acted out.
It is an epic film
Bravo!

Well just like books i have my own share of favourite movies in each genre and categories. Well one of my favourites is Once which is a Irish English movie which goes through the story of a musician who's recently spilt with his wife and trying to make a album of his own and finding love in other places. Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
Smile, for better days are yet to come :D

My favorite movie is "Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas". It is real, colorful, exciting, and unbelievable. It reels you in leaving you intrigued to find out more and see just how far down this man and his "attourny"go...and will they come back from all this crazy psychedelic day tripping. Hunter S Thompson really paints a picture of where his head was and how it made him feel. He set the scene and painted some fascinating pictures through the movie and In the book.

I actually don't have one. But as long as it is action I gravitate towards it like a magnet. 😂😂

For me it's The Secret Life of Walter Mitty with Ben Stiller. I love the music they used, and the beautiful scenery.

The English Patient is my favourite movie. Titanic was my favourite before I watched the English patient.

It directly spoke to my heart and left a life long memory. I still feel sad when I remember it

Mine would vary depending on the different genres. My all-time favorite movie, however, is Love & Basketball. It combines two of my favorite things; romance and basketball (players;))

Definitely Moulin Rouge, ever since I first saw it which I cant even remember because I was so young. It was the beginning of my celeb crush on Ewan Mcgregor.

I can never answer this question. There are so many struggling for the top one but I cant decide one, ever. After series is good, but Indian romance movies compete a lot. Titanic is very good and then the new Work It does it for me. I can provide a whole list where each movie is assigned to number one. The more classified way I use would be to classify them in genres.
