This is obviously a spin off of the last terrible movie you've seen thread...
Now for this thread, when I say great, I don't just mean a good movie, but something great, almost perfect in all areas; something I feel is as rare to find as a truly awful movie.

My most recent great movie experiences:

Matchstick Men: Loved the direction(couldn't believe it was Ridley Scott) and was really invested in the relationship b/w Cage and Lohman. Also has one of the most unexpected and cruel twists I've seen in quite a while.

Black Swan: Horrifying, powerful and completely captivating.

A Serious Man: The acting and writing is top notch. Simultaneously depressing and hilarious.

Pi: Probably one of the best Sci fi movies I've ever seen.
