61. Barb Wire (the opening sequence only)
This movie is on the list for one reason and one reason only (okay, you got me, there are two big reasons). Pamela Anderson’s breasts. Watch the opening sequence with intensity and then watch something else. The film is terrible. Her breasts are not.
Best line in the movie: “Don’t call me babe.”
62. Road House
Awesome movie starring Swayze as a bouncer hired to sort out a rough bar. Things get heated with the local bad guy and you can guess the rest. The kicker for me was when Swayze ripped a guys throat out. Literally.
Best line in the movie: “I want you to be nice until it’s time to not be nice.”
63. Cocktail
In a nutshell, this film is about Tom Cruise flinging bottles of vodka and stuff up in the air and catching it. Don’t try it at home though, it’s not as easy as it looks. After getting through $200 worth of Smirnoff bottles, I should know!
Best line in the movie: “You wait till you’ve given them crabs. Then you’ll really know hatred.”
64. Outlaw
If you’re from England you’ll understand the pure hatred of the chav culture and how these vultures of society literally get away with murder. This movie is about a bunch of blokes who decide to take the law into their own hands – something I wish I could do almost daily.
Best line in the movie: “I’m talking about legitimate targets. I’m talking about people that hurt you. I’m talking about fucking violence.”
65. Shaun Of The Dead
A rom-zom-com from the inspired mind of Simon Pegg. This is a story of a man who decided to change his life by winning back his ex, sorting out his relationship with his mum and step-dad and trying to deal with a community of living dead zombies!
Best line in the movie: “Who died and made you fucking king of the zombies? “
66. Hot Fuzz
Another fantastic Pegg/Frost double team which sees two cops trying to make sense out of a series of suspicious accidents in a tiny village in the middle of nowhere!
Best line in the movie: “Is it true that there’s a point on a man’s head where if you shoot it, it will blow up?”
67. Bad Boys (1 and 2)
What can you say about Bad Boys? Action-packed with slices of comedy genius! Proper manly movie with plenty to keep you entertained from start to finish.
Best line in the movie: “We ride together, we die together. Bad boys for life.”
68. Ali
Will Smith packed on the pounds to play Cassius Clay aka Muhammad Ali in this biography about the boxing legend. Motormouth Smith is the perfect guy, in my opinion, to play the outspoken sportsman!
Best line in the movie: “Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. His hands can’t hit what his eyes can’t see.”
69. Hackers
Another movie for the geeks out there! Jonny Lee Miller makes being a hacker quite cool. Remember all those e-mail addresses and screen names back when this movie came out? Zero Cool and Crash Override etc. This movie is worth it for the simple fact that Angelina Jolie whips her kit off!
Best line in the movie: “God gave men brains larger than dogs’ so they wouldn’t hump women’s legs at cocktail parties.”
70. Commando
Retired elite commando Big Arnie has to find and rescue his daughter from an exiled dictator in only a few hours! Sound thrilling? It is. One of my all-time favourite movies, bar none.
Best line in the movie: “Let off some steam, Bennett.”
71. Cliffhanger
A mid-air heist goes wrong, leaving suitcases full of money scattered over the Rocky Mountains. Former rescue climber Gabe Walker attempts a rescue on the mountain, not knowing that the people he’s helping are actually the very criminals who stole the money!
Best line in the movie: “I must say, you’re a real piece of shit.”
72. Under Siege
Former Navy Seal Steven Seagal stars as the chef on a US Navy battleship which is taken over by some very bad people. Obviously, in true Seagal style, he proceeds to eliminate them in an attempt to save the day. Worthy of note is the stripper with the large jugs who helps him out.
Best line in the movie: “I’m just a cook.”
73. Old School
Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell are three middle-aged men looking to recapture their youth by starting their own fraternity. As the movie strapline says; all the fun of college, none of the education.
Best line in the movie: “You tell anyone about this and I’ll fucking kill you. I’m kidding, I’m kidding, we’ll have him home by midnight.”
74. Unforgiven
A retired gunslinger from the Old West takes on one last job when a bounty is put on a gang of cowboys who murdered a prostitute. An amazing portrayal of the fine line between being a hero and being a villain. The fact this film won 4 Oscars proves it’s worth the watch!
Best line in the movie: “It’s a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he’s got and all he’s ever gonna have.”
75. Young Guns
A group of young gunmen lead by Billy the Kid become deputies to avenge the murder of the rancher who became their benefactor. But when Billy takes their authority too far, they become the hunted.
Best line in the movie: “You know, Sir, I do admire you, and I sure would like to touch the gun that’s gonna kill Billy the Kid.”
76. Con Air
A recently released ex-con and former US Ranger gets himself trapped in a prisoner transport plane when the other criminals seize control.
Best line in the movie: “Put… the bunny… back… in the box. “
77. 51st State
A kilt-wearing Yank turns up in England to finalise a drug deal with some very bad men. A great film with some brilliant performances from Big Samuel L. Jackson and Robert Carlyle.
Best line in the movie: “You can still go to France, mate, it’s not too far, it’s full of pricks and they hate fucking yanks as well! “
78. American History X
A neo-Nazi is sent to prison for murdering two black guys – and once inside he befriends a black man who makes him realise the error of his ways. Will he be able to save his young brother from following the same path before it’s too late?
Best line in the movie: “I said: Put your mouth on the curb!”
79. Unleashed
Jet Li is raised into behaving like a dog. When the collar comes off, he is unleashed and destroys anyone who gets in his way! When he eventually gets free of fatty Bob Hoskins and his gang, they come looking for their secret weapon.
Best line in the movie: “Like my saint of a mum used to say: Get ‘em young enough and the possibilities are endless.”
80. Face/Off
I love Travolta playing the bad guy – he does it so well! Good and evil swap faces in this flick with both Travolta and Cage delivering sterling performances. Keep your eyes peeled for a young Dominique Swain before she..err..matured!
Best line in the movie: “Well, I’ve gotta go. I’ve got a government job to abuse, and a lonely wife to fuck.”

the dark knight
January 7th, 2010 at 2:21 am
Full metal jacket for sure, It has a special place in my heart because it was filmed at my old army training camp ‘ATR Bassingbourne’ The block where you see the infamous scene where SGT Hartman rips into the recruits isn’t there anymore, it’s all new and modernised now.
January 8th, 2010 at 7:53 am
How could you leave off Boondock Saints???!!
January 12th, 2010 at 12:20 pm
Ok…I’m a girl I’ve seen almost all of these…heck, I don’t even think my boyfriend has seen as many manly movies as I have! Hooligan should be in here…Not all of us girls are into crap like hair and nails
January 14th, 2010 at 10:30 pm

Where is we were soliders one of the best war films ever but yes die hard is great i would say better than 3rd
January 19th, 2010 at 8:28 pm
Congrats on that intro. You managed to completely stereotype men as dumb, primitive animals lacking the cognition to understand or appreciate anything beyond sex and violence. Good job.
January 21st, 2010 at 9:08 pm
I agree with most. Need to add Casablanca, 12 Angry Men, 12 Monkeys, Stripes, Caddyshack, Big Lebowski, Serenity, Deathproof (2nd half of Grindhouse), Blues Brothers, Office Space, Tombstone, just off the top of my head. I might consider Hunt for Red October, and perhaps Good Will Hunting. BTW, in this list the movie listed as “51st State” was released in the US as “Formula 51.” All in all, though, a generally good list for enjoying the good fortune of a Y chromosome.
January 25th, 2010 at 3:58 am
Boondock Saints is one of my favorite movies… it should’ve been on the TOP of this list along with The Replacement Killers ! And c’mon, VanDamme movies??? ugh.
January 25th, 2010 at 9:12 am
Some good ones, but a lot fail on this list. There’s more on here that do not belong than do.
Lazy list, imo.
January 25th, 2010 at 8:25 pm
A few more: The Departed, Pumping Iron, Rudy, Reservoir Dogs, Top Gun, Risky Business, Rounders, Thankyou For Smoking, Boiler Room, and finally the most important one:
Glengarry Glenross, it is by far the manliest movie ever made. What line is memorable? All of it.
Hell just look at the cast:
Al Pacino, Jack Lemmon, Ed Harris, Kevin Spacey, Alec Baldwin, Alan Arkin
January 26th, 2010 at 3:19 am
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, A Fistfull of dollors, Meckennas Gold, Young Guns II, Guns of Navarone, The Dirty Dozon, The Great Escape, Where Eagels dare – just to name a few
January 29th, 2010 at 10:20 pm
I agree, Glengarry GlenRoss is def a must see. – And just in case these other titles have not been given their honorable mention check out – The Usual Suspects, Boiler Room, The Departed, Goodfellas, Donnie Brasco, Casino, Fallen, Hero, Fearless, House of Flying Daggers, and V for Vendetta.
January 30th, 2010 at 4:24 pm
Yea you missed out on a bunch of man movies bro.

February 7th, 2010 at 1:05 pm
Why don?t you be a nice person and get the REAL one?
February 8th, 2010 at 6:18 am
Carlito’s Way, The Usual Suspects, The Motorcycle Diaries, The Basketball Diaries, The Beach, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Momento, The Last King of Scotland, Zeitgeist the documentary… some of you may have other quality movies in mind to add to this list, do so.
February 8th, 2010 at 8:52 am
TO “K” saying: “Congrats on that intro. You managed to completely stereotype men as dumb, primitive animals lacking the cognition to understand or appreciate anything beyond sex and violence. Good job.”
Come on … This all topic is just fun, and your girlfriend will probably never check it out so… No need to pretend! Take a big breath, look at the movie list and enjoy you boring moralist prick.
And believe it or not, you can be fan of Leaving las Vegas and Predator, cry for Wall -e , watch Felon, Le mepris and the dark night… All at the same time.
February 8th, 2010 at 10:54 am

At Viv: “Ok…I’m a girl I’ve seen almost all of these…heck, I don’t even think my boyfriend has seen as many manly movies as I have! Hooligan should be in here…Not all of us girls are into crap like hair and nails”
I so agree with you… nOt every girl is into hair, nail and other stylish stuff… BTW, is the Fast and Furious, Too Fast Too Furious, Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift, The Fast and The Furious on the list? How about the Behind Enemy Lines, Enemy at the Gates, and yeah the We were Soldiers.

February 21st, 2010 at 12:14 pm

February 25th, 2010 at 7:32 am
these are old films and they suck(not all actually), like 74% of the listed movies are annoying to watch
February 26th, 2010 at 12:59 pm
Many other movie should have been in the list. But how could you have missed Glengary Glenross. BTW American Psycho is definitely top 5 guy movie of all times.
February 27th, 2010 at 9:58 pm
Great list. I have seen many and agree. Also must check out several more of these. Thank you for sharing this movie list.
