The Last of the Mohicans (1992)
Best Adventure movie ever made
The last of the Mohicans is for me an epic movie, the best adventure film ever made. Its a masterpiece in all: Great cast, great battles, great photography but the best of this movie is the masterful soundtrack, its truly the best soundtrack of any film ever and is unforgettable. The opening scene is epic. I love the movies, which their opening scenes has great music. Daniel Day-Lewis do a memorable performance, its impressive how he act, he has good vocabulary and his quotes are awesome. Michael Mann does a great job mixing romance and action. The most important thing about this movie is the final scene that is considered for me an epic and powerful scene, I can't describe what I feel when I hear the soundtrack at this scene, its simply epic. This movie was the first great job that Mann did, but Heat is his best movie. The movie won an academy award for best sound, but it didn't get the academy award for best soundtrack and is truly not fair, its unforgiven. An all-time classic that I watch three times each year.
Jaws (1975)
Best Thriller Ever Made
Jaws was the first frightening film I saw when I was a kid, at that age, it gave me a lot of nightmares. Is an important and very special movie for me, it contains the best scariest speech in cinematic history: The story of U.SS Indianapolis that is related by Quint (Robert Shaw), this scene is an instant classic, is one of my favorite scenes of all time, but the truth is that after seen the movie, I made a presentation of various shipwrecks and one of theme was the Indianapolis, I related the story of the Indianapolis and I spoke like Robert Shaw, in a moment I thought that I was him, an iconic character for me and, of course an iconic and symbolic scene. Jaws have also memorable scary scenes, Sheyder and Dreyfuss do a great job but the hero for me is Shaw, probably his best role. Another important thing is the soundtrack, the main theme is considered an absolute classic by all. It the was the first time that a soundtrack caused so many fear and panic to people of getting in the water, that means that Spielberg did his job. Jaws is a masterpiece that you can't get tired of see it.
Apocalypto (2006)
In a few years it will be a classic, at the moment it remains in a masterpiece
Apocalypto was a big surprise for me, because I thought that would be a boring film like 10,000 BC, probably the worst movie ever made and I finished cheering and enjoyed so much this movie. This movie has the perfect elements of the genre of action and adventure and also is one of the most violent movies that I've seen it. Apocalypto contains the best and long extended foot-chase in cinema history, fifty minutes of pure action. What Mel Gibson has directed here is like an ultra violent yet very entertaining action/adventure film. Curiously though the movie has not known actors, the movie can be awesome. Apocalypto is the first movie that show how the Mayans were marvelous, is more tan a movie, is an experience. A truly classic.
Gladiator (2000)
A modern epic classic
Great acting, great soundtrack, great directing, great action. This movie has it all. Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix offer us stunning and masterful performances. Russell is brilliant in his role, no question about it, but the one who really did a great job was Joaquin Phoenix. The battles in the Colyseum are awesome, especially the Cartago battle.The whole movie is a rush! Hans Zimmer provides the absolute perfect score to capture the different moods in the movie. Ridley Scott sets the perfect tone with his artistic and creative directing. I would recommend it to anyone who can stomach intensity and enjoy an epic story for the ages. An epic movie.
3:10 to Yuma (2007)
Best Western Ever Made
It is a great movie. It is the best western movie that I have ever seen. It is marvellously the performances of Russell Crowe and Christian Bale, but the best character is Charlie Prince, interpreted by Ben Foster, a truly villain. It is the best western movie ever made. This movie takes me in tension until the end after several times having seen it.It has very good shootouts, it has great action. This great director offers us a great an spectacular movie of action and entertainment. It is an indispensable movie. It entertains through, I recommend it for those that they like westerns. Seriously, this movie is pure cinema and you won't be tired of see this movie. A modern classic.
Saving Private Ryan (1998)
Best War Movie Ever Made
Saving Private Ryan is considered by many the best war movie ever made and I admit that is true. This movie is an absolutely breathtaking and affect all the people that see this film, it affected me so much. This movie grab your neck and doesn't let you go and makes you to stay in your seat. You feel the pain of John Miller and his men. Spielberg did an unbelievable job of putting realism into this movie with the camera-work and everything else. Everything is great about this movie, great actors, great battle sequences and a good ending. Simply awesome. An all time classic movie. I think the main purpose of the film is to honor those who fought and died in the struggle against the Nazis in WW2.
Heat (1995)
Best Action movie of all time
We have a great masterpiece. Mann I am charmed with Michael, he make movies that are excellent.Heat and The last of the Mohican's are the best works that Michael Mann has done. Infected with striking and unforgettable scenes like the scene of the shootout in the Street, the best action scene in cinema history, or the face-to-face one between Pacino and Of Niro. This movie is completely loaded of action through, supports his plaster to the sofa and does not leave you to go until the end. You cannot leave her, it is necessary to see her until the end and the ending is awesome. A timeless classic action movie and of course it is my fourth favorite film of all time.
Reservoir Dogs (1992)
My third favorite movie of all time
Tarantino is considered by many one of the best directors of the American cinema by the originality of his films that are inventive. Reservoir dogs is one thousand better than the mythical Pulp Fiction. This movie is one of the best classics of the cinema history. Quentin created a new way of make cinema and created a cult film. It is necessary to emphasize many things of this great movie: the excellent distribution headed by Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Steve Buscemi and Michael Madsen, this one is captivating in his chilling paper of sadistic thief; the great and unforgettable soundtrack; a very well constructed and developed script and the memorable scenes: the cut of the ear to the policeman and the initial scene, I can't describe this scene but the word that I would say would be perfect. An unforgettable classic that all the lovers of the good cinema must see. A truly masterpiece.
Training Day (2001)
My second favorite movie of all time
Training Day is my second favorite movie of all time and only are few films that can compete with her: Reservoir Dogs, Heat, Gladiator, Saving private Ryan, Full metal jacket and The last of the Mohicans, etc. This movie it has everything, a very elaborated plot, a sonorous unforgettable soundtrack and a few big actions (Denzel Washington, what a great performance) and Ethan Hawke also is notable. Antoine Fuqua is a genius of the action. In addition, the movie has memorable scenes, as the scene of the racketeers, a scene summit of maximum suspense.The scene of the racketeers is really terrifying and scary as hell, it paralyzed me, I've never seen equal ever. Alonzo Harris is a sadistic, disagreeable and unforgettable villain. A truly police classic that you can watch again, again and again. You won't be disappointed.
Predator (1987)
My favorite movie of all-time
I have seen many movies and many I liked. But if I had to remain with one, undoubtedly it would be Predator. A movie has never been done as this one and never will be. Predator is a legendary movie that marked a generation and that has not lost an apex of his value. I have seen this movie several times and I don't get tired of seeing it, you see it more times and continue love it. It entertains through, supports me in tension until the end and does not bore. It has very good photography, a brilliant soundtrack, the special effects are brilliant, also it has very good scenes of action. When I saw it for the first time I finished with a great smile, the end is epic. Predator is going to be always for me the best science fiction movie ever made. A perfect movie, a classic. Predator is a masterpiece, is a movie impossible to forget. It is my favorite movie of all time, is the best movie I've ever seen in my life.
