#13.5 = Casablanca.
#16.5 = 12 Angry Men.
Your total = 32 films.
...
#8, 14, 20, 21 ????
I'm guessing you gleened most of your list from someone else's best movies list.
You seem to like popular Hollywood films --- with the cruelty, depravity and conflict.
...
You liked #21 and #25, westerns.
See The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962, B&W), Seven Men From Now (1957, color), Babarosa (1982) and McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971).
...
You liked #5,Taxi Driver. ADULTS ONLY!! See Chopper (2000, Australia) and Dead Man's Shoes (2004, UK).
"You were supposed to be a monster, now I'm the monster."
...
Casablanca, 12 Angry Men, and Rear Window do not fit with the others.

Watch any Kubrick, Leone, Coppola, etc that looks appealing.

you have momento, inception, and lalala land but you dont have the dark knight rises or revenge of the sith?

Id add force awakens, Masters of the Universe, All of the Conan films with red sonya too, My favorite untartino film dusk till dawn might as well add his best i think kill bill both volumes, the abyss, all of clint eastwood films that include dirty harry plus other ones he did that were similar but werent harry including gran torino, and ill this end list with death wish. Disgusting you dont have any Charles Bronson. Not a good top 30.
