Having movies at your finger tips on platforms like Netflix or Max is great but you aren't actually buying anything and it can be taken away from you in an instant. That's why I still like to buy my stuff on physical media and keep it for rewatch. Le...

My Top 3
These are the movies I will always return to watch a few times a year.
Possibly the greatest trilogy ever
The Lord of The Rings Trilogy
I love this movie.
Alien
Possibly my all time favourite movie. Just love it all. As long as you have hope you have a reason to live.
The Shawshank Redemption
Asian
In no particular order, some of these I love more than others but you really can't go past a good Asian action movie. I love Japanese anime in general and Studio Ghibli have done their craft so well for many years that it is hard for me to choose a f...
Love this movie, great action and story.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Great visuals and fights.
House Of Flying Daggers
Great cast and story.
Curse of the Golden Flower
One of my favourite action film for the fights and the striking visuals. Watch!
Hero
If you haven't seen this movie, I am not sure why and we can't be friends
Oldboy
Kung Fu and comedy is the perfect mix.
Kung Fu Hustle
Brutal movie, love it.
Battle Royale
Such a good movie, only the Japanese really know how to make a good Godzilla movie.
Godzilla Minus One
Do yourself a favour and check these movies out. Some enjoyable films in the bunch.
Shaw Brothers Classics
A classic among classics
Spirited Away
Absolutely love this movie, dub casting is a masterclass of stars.
I could list all the Studio Ghibli films here or I could just link to a box set. Go buy it all!
Studio Ghibli's Hayao Miyazaki Complete
I really enjoyed what they created here, a little different but still had fun.
Sukiyaki Western Django
Just try to live a good life otherwise you may get what's coming.
I Saw the Devil
I enjoyed this one.
The Good The Bad and The Weird
Really good movie.
The Host
I need to watch this one again but I do remember it being very good.
A Bittersweet Life
About as Iconic as you can get in Anime or movies in general.
Akira
Hollywood
We have been inundated with American movies forever, so It's only natural for me to have a long list of liked films. I like most genres really and try not to have any bias going into watching.
Top down a stellar cast, story is wild and repeat viewings always has you discovering something.
Fight Club
A great performance by all.
The Green Mile
What a world that was fully realised in this movie. Great cast too.
The Fifth Element
A movie I argue with myself about whether it is better than the original. I still favour Alien.
Aliens
Prime Arnie at his best with a great cast.
True Lies
Was totally blown away the first time I watched this but surprisingly still rewatchable on repeat viewings.
The Sixth Sense
Prime Arnie at his action best. I love this movie and the quippy one liners they were dropping.
The Running Man
Great movie.
The Terminator
Sorry but Tobey is MY Spider-man, enough said. I think #2 holds up and still might be the best of the 9 now.
Spider-Man 1-3
Love the story and great use of time. I really don't think Tom ever gives a bad performance.
Edge of Tomorrow
Great cast and so funny. Tom Cruise was great too.
Tropic Thunder
If I could have surfed, this movie would have made me want to learn.
Point Break
Get to the choppa, so you can watch this classic.
Predator
Great cast and great story, give it a watch.
The Prestige
Not the type of movie you expect Tom to make but so glad he did as this is one of my favourites of his. Great story and cast.
Collateral
Gave us Big Brother years ahead of its time. Jim is great.
The Truman Show
Ledger stole this movie from Bale and I don't think anyone begrudges him. Such a great character.
The Dark Knight
An oldie but a goodie, give it a watch.
The Warriors
Arguably not a great movie but I still like it.
Event Horizon
As a Star Trek or fan of Sci Fi in general, I love the love it gives to all it was parodying from.
GALAXY QUEST
Such a great movie, i hope they never make a sequel
Wall-E
I'd probably recommend just watching the first movie and leaving it there but if you must watch the others, I can't stop you.
The Ultimate Matrix Collection
Denzel Freaking Washington! Just watch it!
Training Day
Let's hope we never experience another one of these for real. Such a great movie and great cast.
Saving Private Ryan
Simple story executed very well.
Pitch Black
Probably only recommend the first one of the three but Brandon was good in all.
The Mummy Trilogy
Don't laugh at me! I love the characters and story.
Megamind
They did the multiverse concept better than Marvel
Everything Everywhere All At Once
Such a great trilogy with a lot of heart
How To Train Your Dragon: 3-Movie Collection
Surprisingly good movie with a lot of heart, did not expect this.

Enemy Mine

Europe

Untouchable
I absolutely love the performances in this film, so powerful and tragic for the people caught up in the madness.
