Ben-Hur was written in 1880 and four movies were produced. The first two were silent movies, one was produced in 1959 starring Charleton Heston, and recently a 2016 version came out.
The 2016 Ben-Hur movie is the best one.
If you have a favorite movie please tell us and give some information about it and what year it came out!
Reading the movies on this list are enjoyable because you get to recall old memories.
I'm surprised Groundhog Day was not mentioned. (or did I miss it?)
This is a movie that starred Bill Murray. It's basically about a day that keeps repeating
itself over and over. I sometimes think life is like that.
I would think nearly everyone has seen that movie. If you haven't, you should.
The Internship (2013)- Two aging Gen-Xers lose their sales jobs and become interns at Google -- hilarity ensues.
It is an underrated comedy that has a nice story arc (not just a series of jokes).

Groundhog Day is definitely one of the best movies ever made...really is a movie that mirrors life. They made a musical based loosely on the movie. It was fantastic. Sucks it closed early really due to bad marketing.
The Naked Prey (1965): The best running movie, and best movie, ever.
2001, 1968.
Back to the Future, 1985
Blues Brothers, 1980
Swingers, 1996
Rocky, 1976
A Night at the Opera, 1935 (Probably the best Marx Bros film)
Black panther (2018)
