• 10. Dances with Wolves
  A very impressive and ambitious historical epic. It's too bad Kevin Kostner hasn't done anything close to it since.
• 9. Unforgiven
  The western came roaring back thanks to one of it's most famous disciples. Finally gave Clint Eastwood the recognition he deserved.
• 8. Silence of the Lambs
  Introduced the world to Hannibal Lecter. Red Dragon is great too, but it's hard to top the original for scares and thrills.
• 7. Scent of a Woman
  Al Pacino's performance as Frank Slade. Need I say more?
• 6. Forrest Gump
  Some people love to bash this film, and I never understood it. Forrest Gump is a unique and joyous celebration of the human spirit and the power of determination in any individual. It gets better every time I see it.
• 5. Pulp Fiction
  Comes in at #1 on many lists. I can't say anything that hasn't already been said. Travolta can still dance!
• 4. The Shawshank Redemption
  My favorite from 1994, the gretest year for films in the 90s in all aspects. I really, really love this movie. Shawshank is a wonderful, satisfying experience that can renew your faith in life.
• 3. Schindler's List
  Same as Saving Private Ryan, but on a greater, more devastating scale. No other film I've ever seen packs quite the emotional whallop as this one does.
• 2. Saving Private Ryan
  Squeaks past Schindler's List for me. A truly engrossing, unforgettable war epic. And as for the opening battle scene, fuhgettaboutit.
• 1. Goodfellas
  My all-time favorite film of any decade. Breathtaking, exhilirating, exhausting, and captivating all at once with unbelievable performances all-around. Martin Scorsese has got to be the greatest filmmaker alive.
Honorable mentions (there's too many to list them all) -Heat (Pacino and DeNiro finally share the screen) -American Beauty -The Crying Game -Quiz Show -Fight Club -L.A. Confidential -Braveheart -Casino -Dumb and Dumber (probably the funniest movie of the decade)

  If I hear so much as a mouse fart in here I swear by God and sonny Jesus you will all visit the infirmary. Every last motherf**ker in here.

  Orphanage Headmistress: Now tell me what happened to you. Mathilda: OK. My family they got shot down by D.E.A. officers because of a drug problem. I left with the greatest guy on earth. He was a hitman, the best in town, but he died this morning. And if you don't help me, I'll be dead by tonight.

• 10. Interview with the vampire
  Admittedly mixed performances, but impeccable set design and production values and good performances from Cruise and Banderas make this a winner.
• 9. Lola Rennt (Run Lola Run)
  Breathtakingly kinetic thriller with the subliminal theme that love can do anything.
• 8. The opposite of Sex
  "You'll laugh, You'll cry, You'll be offended" Just hilarious
• 7. Cyrano De Bergerac
  Exuberant and witty take on the classic story, great performances all round and stunning visual style.
• 6. American Beauty
  Funny, shocking and poignant deconstruction of the pitfalls risked in aspiring to the American dream.
• 5. Four Weddings and a Funeral
  Proved British movie could be both brilliant and commercial, hilariously funny and surprisingly subtle.
• 4. The Last Seduction
  The 'noir' genre revamped with Linda Fiorentino as the most brilliant of Femme Fatales, always entertains and surprises.
• 3. Three Colours: Red
  I haven't seen 'blue' or 'white' but they'll have to be quite something to equal this.
• 2. The English Patient
  Powerful drama of doomed love around the time of world war 2. Haunting, poignant and hugely successful (partculairly commercially...)
• 1. The Crying Game
  Thought Provoking, superbly acted and directed, deserving of its six oscar nominations and so much more than just a plot twist.
