21. Clerks
Two blokes working in a convenience store who spend all day annoying customers, discussing movies and playing hockey on the roof. Typical guy stuff. I thought I’d hate this film, but it turns out that I really liked it.
Best line in the movie: “Clerk: 37! My girlfriend’s sucked 37 dicks!” Customer: “In a row?”
22. Highlander
When you watch a film about immortal beings who can only die if someone chops their head off with a sword – you’re going to be entertained. Back in the day, this film was awesome. Today, well…..it’s still awesome!
Best line in the movie: “You can’t drown, you fool, you’re immortal!”
23. Braveheart
Exhibitionist Mel Gibson flashes his tackle to his enemies on the battlefield and leads rampant Jocks’ to glory. Well, almost. Brilliant and entertaining film.
Best line in the movie: “FREEEEE-DOMMMMMM.”
24. Se7en
I used to have a neighbour that weighed a ton, literally. I’m beginning to think that maybe Kevin Spacey had something to do with it. You don’t wanna miss the gruesome ending to this movie, folks!
Best line in the movie: “Yeah, a landlord’s dream: a paralyzed tenant with no tongue.”
25. Saving Private Ryan
Let’s face it, Steven Spielberg knows how to make a movie and this war drama starring Tom Hanks is no exception. A gritty, true to life and emotional portrayal of being behind enemy lines.
Best line in the movie: “It’s like finding a needle in a stack of needles.”
26. Wild Things
If you’d like to see Neve Campbell and Denise Richards make out, then watch this movie. If you’d like to see Denise Richards get champagne poured over her bare breasts, then watch this movie. If neither of these facts have convinced you to watch Wild Things, Matt Dillon is in it – maybe he’s your ‘kind of thing’.
Best line in the movie: “Jesus! Where did she get the shoes? “Whores for less”?”
27. Naked Gun
Legendary cop Frank Drebin has to foil a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth II with hilarious consequences! This is a laugh out loud film – Leslie Nielsen is god!
Best line in the movie: “Wilma, I promise you; whatever scum did this, not one man on this force will rest one minute until he’s behind bars. Now, let’s grab a bite to eat.”
28. A Few Good Men
Short-arse Cruise stars as a military lawyer defending U.S. Marines accused of murder. Once Jack Nicholson gets into the box – the shit really hits the fan!
Best line in the movie: “You can’t handle the truth.”
29. Predator
I think I’d fancy Schwarzenegger (in his prime) to take on the Predator and win in real life. He’s badass! Here, he leads a team of commandos into a jungle, only to encounter an extra-terrestrial warrior!
Best line in the movie: “If it bleeds, we can kill it.”
30. Beverly Hills Cop
Eddie’s laugh is reason enough for this movie to be in the list in addition to 48 Hours. Axel Foley will have you crying with laughter and this movie will have you on the edge of your seat too!
Best line in the movie: “Get the fuck out of here!”

31. Ocean’s Eleven
George Clooney and the gang plot to rob three Las Vegas casinos simultaneously. Slick, smart and funny movie with a great ending.
Best line in the movie: “Ten oughta do it, don’t you think? You think we need one more? You think we need one more. All right, we’ll get one more.”
32. Porky’s
Classic 80’s comedy about a bunch of high school kids looking to get laid for the first time! The movie is packed with practical jokes and eccentric characters, like Pee Wee with the short dick (which he measures every morning) who met up for sex with the school “mattress” Wendy already wearing a rubber, or the fat teaching bitch Beulah Balbricker who is determined on making life a living hell for the boys.
Best line in the movie: “This has gotta be the biggest beaver shoot in the history of Florida.”
33. American Pie
Another classic comedy in a similar vein to Porky’s. Now, call me crazy, but I’ve never once had the urge to stick my wang in an apple pie! To each their own, I guess.
Best line in the movie: “I never did it with baked goods, but you know your uncle Mort, he pets the one-eyed snake 5-6 times a day.”
34. Dog Day Afternoon
The robbery should have taken 10 minutes. 4 hours later, the bank was like a circus sideshow. 8 hours later, it was the hottest thing on live T.V. 12 hours later, it was all history. Pacino’s best work, short of Scarface and Godfather Part II.
Best line in the movie: “They keep sayin’ TWO homosexuals. I am not a homosexual. I want you to stop them saying that. Stop.”
35. Swordfish
Travolta owns in this film. The opening speech is just brilliant and sets the mood for the rest of the movie. Extremely predictable twist, but you do get to see Halle Berry’s breasts in all their glory.
Best line in the movie: “You know what the problem with Hollywood is? They make shit.”
36. Ferris Buellers Day Off
This movie practically shaped my teenage years. Faking illness to get out of school became an art form for millions after Ferris Bueller taught us the way. Also, the film inspired a bunch of no-hopers to create a new rock band, called Save Ferris. They are quite successful. More recently, people have hilariously started to point out the huge number of laws that Ferris and friends broke in the movie.
Best line in the movie: “Incredible! One of the worst performances of my career and they never doubted it for a second. “
37. Ronin
Robert “Are You Talkin’ To Me?” De Niro stars in this action packed movie about a group of outcast specialists whose services are available to everyone – for a price. So, are you talking to me?
Best line in the movie: “You got the gun. I’m unarmed. Do something. Go ahead. Do something. DO SOMETHING.”
38. Taxi
Whenever I get a taxi, they always seem to take friggin’ ages to get me where I need to go because I’m on the meter! Not pizza delivery boy Daniel, though. If cruising around in a souped up Peugeot 406 taxi is your cup of tea, this movie has what you need. Who knew the French could make a decent film, eh?
Best line in the movie: “Let me ask you a question: Do your interrogations always end up like this, or are you just trying to impress me?”
39. Taxi Driver
A mentally unstable war vet with an urge to violently lash out works as a night time taxi driver attempting to save a teenage prostitute in the process!
Best line in the movie: “You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me?”
40. Wayne’s World
Wayne and Garth are two slackers with their own TV show which results in hilarious consequences. Oh, and Cassandra is hot too. Party time. Excellent!
Best line in the movie: “All I have to say about that is ‘asphinctersayswhat’?”
