MY 50 FAVOURITE MOVIES

Like’em or Hate’em.

As promised, here is the list of fifty of my favourite movies. Although some of these movies were made before I was even born, I had the utter most pleasure watching them when I was old enough to understand them. If you have noticed I purposefully avoided the word all time because I know I am going to have more favourite movies in the years ahead.

Well with that being said, on to today's agenda. The following movies listed are my favourites not because they have won numerous awards but because each movie has a unique charm to itself. What I deem a good film might contradict with your own perception of a good film. Nonetheless, everyone has favourites and the following movies are the ones that have caught my attention.

Some of you might not agree with the list I have and will be agitated to see your favourite movies not being listed. Rest assured this list has no particular value expect maybe to show you the genres I like to watch.

Please be aware, I do have a certain degree of bias opinions on these movies, but than again who doesn’t. Another interesting point you should be aware of is that I opted not to put animated films, foreign films, and Tamil films in my list. I simply didn’t want to confuse you the reader with too many genres spanning across different mediums and several languages.

So enjoy reading the list. In the end, its either you like the movie or you didn’t like the movie.
