Good list, misses my top movie...

12 Angry Men (1957) - Henry Fonda. A 64 year old movie that still pulls the curtain aside to reveal prejudice and middle-class assumption for me.

If you're into privacy and security, watch "Enemy of the State" - 1998, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, with Will Smith and Gene Hackman.

Two random recommendations for extremely clever films - "One Cut of the Dead" - unbelievably original Japanese zombie story, and "Timecrimes" - superb Spanish time travel movie

Zodiac is great - it's a serial killer film that isn't really about the serial killer at all

It's a Wonderful Life, 1946. This movie didn't change my life but It got me out of depression.
