I'm not a huge movie fan, but I want to broaden my horizons a bit. I'll offer my list (that I've rewatched so many times I'm a bit tired of them):

  • Young Poisoner's Handbook

  • Full Metal Jacket

  • Life of Brian

  • Holy Grail

  • Sunset Boulevard

  • Curse of the Golden Flower

  • The Nightingale

  • Downfall

  • Amadeus

  • Once Were Warriors

  • Dusk to Dawn

City of God - movie about the struggles of growing up in a tough spot in Rio de Janeiro, it's just great

Gattaca - my favourite sci fi film, it's just a simple concept ... what if we could tell who you were going to grow up to be, just from your blood

Gattaca is immense, still underrated imo.

Dark City and (the probably obvious) Arrival are my picks

My friends and I do a once a month movie night and every month someone different picks the movie. This month's was originally picked to be Gattaca, but they changed their mind. I'm going to let them know this was on someone's must watch list!
