For me it's Interstellar, it never fails to make me ugly cry at least twice during each viewing

Interstellar or Pacific Rim

Interstellar for the story
Pacific Rim for the action and pacing.

Amelie. It is by far my favorite movie that isn't animated.

How to train your dragon (1, 2, and 3). These are my favorite American animated films.

My Neighbor Totoro. Favorite Japanese animated film.

The Fountain. I was just in the right place in the right time in my life when I first saw it, left an unforgottable memory.

Sneakers had got to be one of my all-time favorite movies. Definitely still relevant.

The Matrix (1999). The one existential movie for all. Then, it's probably "Serenity" (2005). Then, probably Galaxy Quest (1999).

Ace ventura 2.
Hardly needs recommending but i would be lying if i said it wasnt my favorite.

A Knights Tale would be a close second.

Oh my god, I must have watched Ace Ventura 2 hundreds of times as a kid. The rhinoceros scene is a freaking classic.

Adding another. Children of Men. Brilliantly made, disturbing premise, very plausible sci-fi. Quite violent, though.

Mon Oncle. Making fun of modern impracticalities always makes me laugh.
