2) The Usual Suspects
3) Star Wars
4) The American President (I don't know why I like this)

Forgot all about that Milo!
That was one of the funniest movies around. Definitely made Cage as far as Hollywood was concerned.

Some great movies here.....
Thought I would contribute 5 that haven't been mentioned, that I like..(There is no way I will be able to come up with five favorites...too many genres, too many great movies).......
[list]
The Snake Pit (Great old movie, Olivia de Haviland is great in this)
Unforgiven(Toss in the rest of his westerns to make it complete)
Wierd Science(I have seen this a hundred times, just hilarious, even if it isn't a cinematic materpiece:)
It's a Wonderful Life(Sappy, I know, but still a great movie)
Clerks (And all other Kevin Smith movies, I'm a huge fan)
You said only five, and I'm not a cheater like Luvtowin and Coop :D
There are just so many...
Just like the other "list posts"...These are great, make you think of music, movies etc. that you might have not seen or heard in a while......
