Quentin Tarantino lists his Top 20 favorite movies made since he directed his first movie in 1992. You can’t argue with these, he’s not saying they are the best, he’s just saying they were his favorites. Fair enough. I’ve seen 12 of the 20. And many of them are very good. “Battle Royale” and “Shaun of the Dead” are two of my personal favorites as well.
1. Battle Royale – Kinji Fukasaku
2. Anything Else – Woody Allen
3. Audition – Takashi Miike
4. The Blade – Hark Tsui
5. Boogie Nights – Paul Thomas Anderson
6. Dazed & Confused – Richard Linklater
7. Dogville – Lars von Trier
8. Fight Club – David Fincher
9. Friday – F. Gary Gray
10. The Host – Joon-ho Bong
11. The Insider – Michael Mann
12. Joint Security Area – Chan-wook Park
13. Lost In Translation – Sofia Coppola
14. The Matrix – Larry and Andy Wachowski

To this day I still find “Lost in Translation” insufferable. A narcisistic vanity project with no dramatic conflict whatsover. This movie could have been 20 minutes long and would hve been the exact same thing. That would have spared me an hour and a half of my life because I can only glide on mood and tone for so long.
But I’m glad he mentioned “The Insider.” “heat is still the top Michael Mann film for me but I’m glad this one is getting some mention.
