[Film] Best films with one word titles.

[thejackal]

Not the 2008 film, it was called just ‘Rambo’.

Yes but that was utter dross. This thread is about the best films with one word titles, not any films with one word titles

Restrepo

I would encourage anyone who hasn't seen this to give it a watch. Oscar nominated, easily the gnarliest war movie I've ever seen because it's all real.

 

[Guy Fawkes]

Kajaki

Based on a true story
Currently available on Amazon prime and well worth a watch imo

 

[Iron Butterfly]

Metropolis
If
Up
Convoy
Philomena
Jabberwocky
Fargo

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Brick
Dumbo (both)
Stardust

 

[The Clamp]

Raw
(the French film, not the Eddie Murphy concert). Superb film.

Chocolat.
Charming film, a bit soppy but I liked it.

Spectre.
A controversial choice but my favourite Craig era Bond film. I urge a revisit, it’s got it all and races along at a good lick.

 

[El Presidente]

Cumbath

 

[Sid and the Sharknados]

It's certainly more fun than the mopathons (mopeathon? mope-a-thon?) either side of it.
On the other hand, it's a good thing that it bombs along so quickly, because people get over chlamydia in less time than that film lasts.
I also struggle to take it seriously ever since hearing the action scenes described as "like playing Goldeneye on the N64 on Agent difficulty".
In case you can't tell, I like it.

Jaws
Unfaithful (Richard Gere, Diane Lane)
Poltergeist

I guess that is a matter of opinion, i might be a bit odd but I loved all of the Rambo films, so it was good enough for me to include in the list.

Slightly off topic I know, but a few years ago I worked with a guy who genuinely bore a strong resemblance to Buzz Lightyear. We arrived in the office one morning and someone had left a plastic model of BL on his desk which was quite funny. What wasn't funny was that the same individual had left a model of Shrek on my desk (I'm follically challenged and did once receive a Mr potato head toy in a secret santa).

M?


Come on people the games gone.

Why the query on M? It's a superb film, far more worthy of mention than many on here/
While we're on single letter answers - Z is also worthy of recognition

And one that (surprisingly) hasn't been mentioned yet that would certainly be high in my top films list is Weekend

I agree, it is utterly fantastic. I didn't say anything because I was hoping it was just about it being repeated a few times in the thread, rather than questioning the quality.

Because M is a singular letter and not a word, there's no place for it here - be gone with this silliness.

I don't make the rules I just abide by them.

Fair play. My list of best films isn't very long but First Blood is definitely on it.
