Pride & Prejudice - 2005 [DVD]
1.  Pride & Prejudice - 2005 [DVD] DVD ~ Keira Knightly
The list author says:
  "If you are a purist, don't bother.  If you have an open mind and honestly appreciate a decent cinematic experience, go for it.  The score composed by Dario Marianelli is a particular highlight."
£4.76   Used & New from: £0.01

A Little Princess [DVD] [1995]
2.  A Little Princess [DVD] [1995] DVD ~ Liesel Matthews
The list author says:
  "The ultimate childhood film for girls.  The score by Patrick Doyle is breath taking.  Directed by genius Alfonso Cuarón, this film finds it difficult to have any flaws."
£3.12   Used & New from: £0.90
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (41 customer reviews)

Love Actually [DVD] [2003]
3.  Love Actually [DVD] [2003] DVD ~ Rowan Atkinson
The list author says:
  "Romantic Comedies tend to be really irritating, but this attempt is quite refreshing, honestly touching and has some very funny moments.  You'll never find such a great variety of actors in one film."
£3.64   Used & New from: £0.01
3.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (214 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Beauty And The Beast (Special Edition) [1992] [DVD]
4.  Beauty And The Beast (Special Edition) [1992] [DVD] DVD ~ Paige O'Hara
The list author says:
  "If you ever wonder what film you should grab from the Disney Vault, this is the only one you'll ever need.  Easily enjoyed by both children and adults."
Used & New from: £8.77

Spirited Away [DVD]
5.  Spirited Away [DVD] DVD ~ Hayao Miyazaki
The list author says:
  "I guess I love anything that Hayao Miyazaki does, but still, this film is definitely the best of his. I need not go into world records that it broke, it's just essential viewing"
£5.99   Used & New from: £4.25
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (205 customer reviews) | 5 customer discussions

Princess Mononoke (Special Edition) [DVD]
6.  Princess Mononoke (Special Edition) [DVD] DVD ~ Hayou Miyazaki
The list author says:
  "This was the first Hayao Miyazaki film I saw and it took my breath away. This film is not as far out or as imaginitive as the wondrous 'Spirited Away' but it still worth watching on its own merit."
£8.67   Used & New from: £7.10
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (105 customer reviews) | 4 customer discussions

Lost In Translation [DVD] [2004]
7.  Lost In Translation [DVD] [2004] DVD ~ Bill Murray
The list author says:
  "A subtle, moving film about alienation that is set in Japan.  This is not your every day 'romance' and should not be judged until it's seen. I pity those that fail to understand this film."
£3.39   Used & New from: £0.01
3.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (269 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Aliens - Definitive Edition [DVD] [1986]
8.  Aliens - Definitive Edition [DVD] [1986] DVD ~ Sigourney Weaver
The list author says:
  "Far outstrips the original and its sequels.  Expert directing, but it's the aliens that steal the film - they look brilliant and shows movie makers today that not everything has to be done with CGI!"
£9.77   Used & New from: £1.67
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (15 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

The Fifth Element [DVD] [1997]
9.  The Fifth Element [DVD] [1997] DVD ~ Bruce Willis
The list author says:
  "The sets are made out of foil and the most irritating actor of all time has a place in this film (Chris Tucker). None of it detracts from the genius of this relatively simple plotted sci-fi flick! <3"
£6.59   Used & New from: £0.49
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (81 customer reviews) | 4 customer discussions

Schindler's List [DVD] [1994]
10.  Schindler's List [DVD] [1994] DVD ~ Liam Neeson
The list author says:
  "Every human being on the planet needs to watch this film.  Do not expect to be entertained or experience easy viewing, expect to be inspired and educated."
Used & New from: £5.24

Atonement [DVD]
11.  Atonement [DVD] DVD ~ Keira Knightley
The list author says:
  "Dario Marianelli's score!  Breath-taking!  With the same director (Joe Wright) as Pride & Prejudice, the aesthetic element to it is superb.  It's quite an "arty" film - not one to watch for plot!"
£6.85   Used & New from: £0.19
3.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (243 customer reviews) | 4 customer discussions

Amazing Grace [DVD]
12.  Amazing Grace [DVD] DVD ~ Ioan Gruffudd
The list author says:
  "The brave and inspirational story of William Wilberforce is rarely told.  Lucky for us, this film which far surpasses adequacy exists to fill us in.  Ioan Gruffudd at his best."
£8.00   Used & New from: £2.02

American History X [DVD] [1999]
13.  American History X [DVD] [1999] DVD ~ Edward Norton
The list author says:
  "Violent and gritty, this film tells a moving and honest story dealing with racism and repentence."
£8.99   Used & New from: £0.51
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (101 customer reviews) | 2 customer discussions

Gladiator [DVD]
14.  Gladiator [DVD] DVD ~ Russell Crowe
The list author says:
  "Epic and beautiful.  Well drawn out characters, particularly the villain, and extremely well acted.  Not to mention one of the best scores ever composed."
£4.20   Used & New from: £0.19
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (501 customer reviews) | 15 customer discussions

Kingdom Of Heaven - Definitive Edition [DVD]
15.  Kingdom Of Heaven - Definitive Edition [DVD] DVD ~ Orlando Bloom
The list author says:
  "It is unfortunate that Orlando Bloom was cast as the lead, but he performs adequately enough that the film does not suffer.  Worth watching just for Edward Norton's haunting performance."
Used & New from: £3.73

16.  Amadeus -- Director's Cut 2-Disc Special Edition [DVD] [1985] DVD ~ F. Murray Abraham
The list author says:
  "A clever film that tells the story of Mozart through the eyes of a fellow jealous composer.  Insightful and engaging."
Used & New from: £2.98
