So instead of a review I thought to do a list of my top films I have seen, what are your top films let me know in the comments. So let’s get started with number five.

5) Boyhood



Now I loved this movie, if you don’t know what this is you have been living under a rock as this has been the most talked about film, it follows a boy called mason who we see age for 12 years. The reason I liked this film is because of how it was filmed (I mean for 12 years that’s something) also the soundtrack is pretty damn awesome, from Coldplay to Arcade Fire. The reason it’s at number five is the fact that it dragged out near the end but nonetheless it was a very good nostalgic trip with this one.

4) GoodFellas 



Now I love a good gangster flick and goodfellas is one of my personal favourites, the story follows true life gangster Henry Hill as he rises the the ranks of being a gangster, with an all star cast including Ray Liotta and Robert De Niro, this is a really good film, plus it’s a Martin Scorsese flick (one of my favourite directors) if you love a good gangster flick definitely check this one out.

3) Mad Max



Now normally it takes a lot to get me interested in an 80s action flick, one time on a day off from college I stumbled upon this film, so I decided to download it (and cue one of the best action films of the 80s) so we follow a guy called you guessed correctly Max, he is a highway cop and family man (aww) well after his family is murdered (in a really really gruesome way) by ruthless bikers he goes on a revenge fuelled mission to take down the bikers who slayed his family. I really enjoyed this film, but it does take a long time for the family die (they die like ten minutes near the end of the film) but I really enjoyed it.

2) Gone Girl



Gone Girl… Oh boy what a film (David Fincher is a master at crime dramas) what can I say about this, tense yes, twist filled oh boy yes, so the film follows Nick Dunne whose wife goes missing and he tries to find her, but his behaviour sparks trouble with the police who think he might have something to do with it. The wife (played fantastically by Rosamund Pike) is a nutter and I mean an absolute nutter, I won’t say anymore because your gonna have to see for yourself, but nonetheless it is a very good crime drama.

And finally.

Number 1! Shutter Island



You know I said that Scorsese is one of my favourite directors, well this film is probably one of my favourites by him (this plus Goodfellas and Wolf of Wall Street) so we follow a detective who goes to a mental hospital to find a missing person (that’s all I’m gonna say as the film takes a very very good twist) this film is number one because my heart was racing and pounding throughout the whole film, storyline wise it’s very good, acting very very good (Ben Kingsley as the head of the institute is fantastic)

And those are my top five favourite movies, let me know what you think comment your opinion and let me know what your top five films are, until next time catch you later.
