    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.

    I just recently had a PTA marathon when my friend came in town who had never seen ANY of his films. So I'd say:

    Hard Eight(Sydney)
    Boogie Nights
    Magnolia
    Punch Drunk Love
    There Will Be Blood
    The Master
