My criteria for ranking the Top 25?


Very simple.  I rated them by how entertaining I found them.  To hell with worrying about lighting, cinematography, etc.  The single most important thing is whether a movie is entertaining.  I have seen some big budget films with all the expensive technology that were boring as hell.  And, we have all seen some B-movies that kick ass.


All of the movies in the list below are the originals unless otherwise noted.
