Few films are as perfectly crafted as Goodfellas . Martin Scorsese nailed the film with his devoted direction. The actors couldn’t have done a better job. No other film is more re-watchable than this masterpiece, which paints the lives of a bunch of retro gangsters.

I have never watched another film that is a better political satire than this Sathyan Anthikkad flim. It details the drawbacks and intricacies of Indian politics, while indulging us with its innocent humour. Sandesham is Malayalam cinema at its best and is a must watch.
Pranchiyettan And The Saint
The film follows the witty tale of a businessman, who tries to buy fame and respect. With a cleverly fabricated protagonist, Pranchiyettan, played by Mammootty, director Ranjith takes us on an entertaining ride that shows us the silly and evil sides of human deeds.
Inglourious Basterds
This film is Quentin Tarantino’s masterpiece. Even though there are just four or five scenes in this movie, with 30-minute-long dialogues, this film won’t bore viewers. It has a well-written screenplay and brilliantly different characters.
The Shining
A unique horror film like no other. The Shining sends chills down my spine every time I watch it. Jack Nicholson is downright creepy as Jack Torrance. His acting will haunt any braveheart. This film, by master mind Stanley Kubrick, is a textbook for aspiring filmmakers.
