Favourite film and why

Personally I have to go with Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. Jim Carrey is an absolute comedy legend in my opinion, his physical comedy is second to none, he's one of my favouite actors of all time.

I've loved this film ever since I was a wee nipper and pretty much know every line off by heart. It's one of them that just never gets old, I'm in tears every time I watch it because I forget JUST how funny it is!

From a critics point of view the film is dogshite, the narrative is very one dimensional as are the characters. Each joke is more irrelevant and childish than the last.

I was a film student at college btw so I feel I have to give my "expert" opinion and show both sides lol.

But basically I have the humour of a child at times and I just love this movie, it's bloody hilarious!

What's everyone else's favourite film(s)?

i dont know if i havent a fav film....but one i think is fuckin awesome is...RAGING BULL...just a cracking film....if you havent seen this then check it out...

robert de niro as a boxer, i had to study parts of that film lol. has joe pesci in aswell doesn't it? not seen it all like

ur gona hate me for this but id herd all the hype about the godfather n borrowed it off a mate in college. i got through about an hour n i was bored shitless, i got only about 10 mins past the horses head int bead bit n turned it off.

same happened wi lord of the rings, got bored after an hour so turned it off

My fave films, well there's lots of movies I like, but some I can watch anytime and never get tired of would be The Princess Bride, Sam Rami's Evil Dead trilogy, and Serenity.

Princess Bride because of all the great lines. The swordfight on top of the cliffs of insanity, best fight scene ever.

Evil Dead 1 &2 and Army of Darkness, because of all the cheap effects and the overacting of Bruce Campbell. If those films had any other person as their star they'd be just typical second-rate horror flicks, but Campbell elevates 'em through his fine art of being so great at pulling off the hammy bad overacting.

Serenity, well I'm a Firefly-fangirl. For those of you who are unfamiliar, think of it as a group of space pirates who won't loose sleep over salvaging anything useful or of monatary value off wrecks that have been left dead in space, but are also quick to help out the little guy. Especally if helping the little guy means they get to stick it to the large central goverment known as 'The Alliance'.

It was done so well though, I loved the scene where Mal goes to the companion home to rescue Inarra, and he has his first run-in with the Operative.

Operative: "I've come here to talk, I'm unarmed..."
Mal: "Good." *draws gun and shoots the Operative*
Operative: "I am of course wearing full body armor, I am not an idiot!"

That was great, finally someone does the smart thing in a film and shoots his enemy while their unarmed, and the enemy wasn't stupid enough to go into the confrontation without armor. I didn't need to yell about how dumb they were at the screen, because finally someone acted like most of us would act in such a situation. Just one example of how well written Joss Whedon allows his characters to be, they act like normal people in a world that's anything but.

i know what u mean about the godfather films, there not everyone's cup of tea......one film i think everyone like's and is a personal fav of mine is.....SCARFACE....awesome

"say hello to my liddle friend"

"you fuck with me, you fuckin wif the best"
