Hard to define "best of all time" but it is certainly a good movie and one of my all time favorites, so much emotion

Not everyone thinks highly of The Godfather, I've never been a fan of it.

To each his own. And her own.
Shawshank is a great movie, top 25 in my thinking.

But this list is absurd, (and based on member voting).

Casablanca isn't even in the top 20.
It's easily top 10, 5, or 1 in my book.

And Citizen Kane is currently at 45.
Another film considered to be one of the best of all time by film critics.

I won't even go into the unworthy films that are listed above these two films.

Shawshank is a great movie. But best of all time? I wouldn't go that far. but certainly in my top 25. Schindlers list is also way up there. But Titanic is my #1.

Schindlers list is a good movie i remember watching it in my 11th grade class years ago it felt realistic with the whole black and white setting and you felt sorry for the characters in the film.
