"Silverado" - Kasdan nails his culmination of every western you've ever seen from the first scene to the last. Blockbuster cast. My father and I used to watch that one and a friend of mine was always ready to watch it. My fondest memories are of that movie and those that have gone before me.
"To Have and Have Not" - Hemmingway, Hawks, Bogart, Bacall... can't go wrong, but my all time favorite:
"The Big Sleep" - Seen it at least 500 times and if I don't think about it too much I can't remember 'who did it'.

The man without a past (This one is Finnish. I think you gents haven't seen it)
Life of Brian (comedy)
Big Fish (weird)
Shining (horror)
Blue Velvet (weird)
The Commitments (music)
Manhattan / Woody Allen (drama)
Cool hand Luke (drama)
Steam of Life (documentary)

I think the OP referred to movie gents. Not the plural, movies... no matter how difficult
For me, at this point, on this morning. The Godfather Part II.

Those are some great ones. I'll have to revisit some on the list it'd been so long since I'd seen them I'd forgotten. And by all means list as many as you please.

Some that haven't been mentioned, The Maltese Falcon (Bogart), Rashoman, Hirakiri (Seppuku), The Third Man, Pickup On South Street, White Heat, Elmer Gantry and I could go on and on too. If you haven't seen any of these check 'em out.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
