Yeah I agree @Supes. I didn't enjoy some of these but they are the movies that have left me thinking about what/when/if and so on. @Babyhhh, yeah Phone Booth was decent and I would like to think that I would be able to stand there and take that like Farrell did, but I would probably crack lol.

Nice list. Some of these are very 'meh' to me, but I can see where they'd leave you thoughtful.

One that really made me think was Phone Booth. I joke, but that movie really did change the way I looked at myself.
