Shawshank Redemption.

I've been thinking about seeing it a 100 times but then I see the stills of a nicely groomed Freeman and some other lad sitting around talking in a fake rough environment and I just can't be arsed.

The first two, the Chris Columbus ones, I found quite fun and whimsical. By the 6th-7th it’s all taking itself a bit too seriously for my liking

I've always thought Harry Potter was too far fetched. I mean whose heard of a Ginger kid with two mates!

Everyone seems to rave about The Princess Bride, but I've never got round to it.

It will happen sooner rather than later. No movie expert, but its one of the few "everyone have seen this"-movie that I haven't seen.

Prepared to be bored shirtless by 2 hours plus of dated, hackneyed sentimental claptrap. Tedious in the extreme, but you're not allowed to say that.

I've definitely never seen Star Wars - does that count for the thread title?

Never seen Reservoir Dogs, for whatever reason never got round to it, or bizarrely, given my love of Boxing, Raging Bull.

This is probably the wrong thread to lob this in as it's not the Best Film, and I've seen it now, but has anyone else seen El Topo? I watched it last night and it's got to be the weirdest film ever made. Proper, proper weird.

Never seen it, nor had any desire to. Marks out of 10?

Both are great films but I fully understand your comment and that’s why I never watched The Boy In Striped Pyjamas for such a long time, however I gave in when my son, then about 12 wanted to watch it, I wasn’t going to refuse him.
