Not the best, but very good ones are the Princess Bride and Whiplash
I'm going through this thread and watching all the movies I haven't seen yet.
Whiplash was absolutely incredible. 10 thumbs up.

Love the Coen brothers. But this was not one of my favorites. I don't understand how it won Best Picture. I guess it was a weak year?
Meatballs. A great running film. Good lesson on how to run on "Pure Hate" by Rudy the rabbit. It just doesn't matter!!!
Hoosiers
Ground Hog Day
God's Not Dead
God's Not Dead2
Not necessarily in that order
Team America
I second the Ip Man Suggestion up above - one of the best martial arts movies ever made - and that includes all your classics.
But I also agree - the 2014 Oscar noms had some of my favorite films ever - Birdman, Whiplash, Grand Budapest - all fantastic films.
Scent of a Woman
Shawshank and Field of Dreams are the two best movies.
