Interesting Jurassic Park trivia: Dinosaurs appear onscreen for only 14 minutes, of which only 6 minutes are CGI!

Superb film, watched it in bed with the missus and don't think a single word was uttered between us the whole movie.

The Game, Michael Douglas is the one that captivated me the most but you can only watch it the once i think.
Absolutely loved this film the first time I saw it, was a fantastically gripping dark thriller.

It's a tough choice to make, but for me Space Jam just edges it.

Always been Aliens for me, I remember watching it as a child and thinking it was the most awesome film ever, I always watch it now if it's on. They just don't seem to be able to make films like that anymore, the 80's was great for gritty action/sci-fi films.

The Third Man. Among other reasons, it is probably worth it just for the long closing shot, over a minute long and taken from a locked off camera, where the girl walks down the middle cemetery road and past the camera. So evocative of a time and place. Also available in 4K thanks to the amazing quality of the lenses and film, despite it being from 1948. The definitive film noir.

Running a close second is The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Another great cemetery scene, this time with Ennio Morricone and a mad warbling woman!
