Movies I like most

I am a movie buff. But that does not mean I watch every movie I came across with. When it comes comes to movie, like everybody, I also have a taste. I don’t stick to any specific genres of movie. I like the movie which has a captivating story, well portrayed characters and some awesome dialogues. Whenever I like some movie, I add them to my will-watch-it-again list. I watch them a lot when I am alone and really want to have a good time. I just enjoy them. With each time I like them more. My list of favorite movies keeps changing. Following are 10 Hollywood movies which are currently at the top of my list. Let me tell you why.

1. The Matrix: – Hats off to Wachowski brothers. It is truly master piece of art. To be honest when I first watch Matrix, I couldn’t understand the story and the concept seems very esoteric. But later when I understood it, I just loved it. It is quite different from traditional save-the-earth sci-fi movies. To many people it is just another high definition action movie but when you go deeper and understand it, you will get its philosophical flavor blended with the concept of reality.
2. The Cinderella Man: – This is a story about human endurance and love. This is a story about courage and integrity. This is the story about a champion boxer, James J. Braddock, badly affected in great depression of 1930 and his struggle to support his family.
3. The Shaw shank Redemption: – This is the story of two murder convicted prisoners, Andy and Red (played by Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman) and their stay in Shaw shank prison. Andy, innocent but convicted for murdering his wife, never gives up hope. At times Life seems irrational and ruthless but still we can’t lose hope. Hope is a good thing, maybe best of things. Hope can set you free.
4. The Godfather: – The Godfather offers a deal you can’t refuse. It is a ware house of business wit and wisdom.  It is a trend setter and undoubtedly best gangster movie ever made. Marlon Brando immortalizes the role of Don Vito Corleone.
5. The pursuit of Happyness: – It’s not “H-A-P-P-Y-N-E-S-S”. Happiness is spelled with an “I” instead of a “Y”. ‘Don’t ever let someone tell you, you can’t do something. Not even me. You got a dream, you got to protect it. People can’t do something themselves, they want to tell you can’t do it. You want something, go get it. Period. All right? ‘This is my favorite dialogue from the movie. Dream is what this movie is all about. If you have a dream, it is you who have to achieve that.
6. Forest Gump: – ‘Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you are going to get.’ Life didn’t give Forest Gump high IQ and that makes him unique. Because of his low IQ he doesn’t understand the world fully and doesn’t try to change himself to be like others. He sees the world through his childish innocence and honesty. He does what his heart says and does that like maniac. Tom hanks brilliantly portray the character of Gump.
7. Brave heart: – This is an epic adventure and story about William Wallace. He fought for his freedom and his love. He fought with passion and lead by example. Though there was controversy about movie having historical errors but still I like the screenplay of movie.
8. As good as it gets: – A different love story. Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholson) is a successful novelist but a sarcastic and unpleasant person. He was suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder. He locks the door five times, washes the hand with fresh soap every time, does not walk the on the lines in side walk  or in short, he literally has problem with everything. Nobody likes him. He also strongly dislikes peoples and dogs or he expresses so. Carol Connelly (Helen Hunt) is the only waitress who tolerates his behavior in the restaurant. He falls for her.
9. The Bourne trilogy: – It is the only series where the sequels are better than its previous parts. It is fast paced action-cum-thriller about Bourne, a CIA agent suffering from amnesia, and his quest for his identity.
10. The terminal: – Viktor Navorski (Tom Hanks) is denied entry into US and can’t return to his own country due to war and trapped in JFK international airport. The terminal becomes his home for undefined period of time. He doesn’t know English well and doesn’t have any money. Instead of getting frustrated, Navorski start living there. He starts making friends and finds himself a job. It is cool comedy movie with a simple message that life can be enjoyed.
