Forget all those top 10 movie lists--this top 10 movie list goes to 11. And if you recognize that reference (This Is Spinal Tap, #269) this is the book for you. In fact it goes right through 11 all the way to 4,336. The author, Taylor Carmichael (a filmmaker in his own right) has ranked every movie he has seen in his life, from first (Casablanca, #1) to worst (Irreversible, #4336). He crisscrosses all genres, ranking high art (Sansho the Bailiff, #3915) and B movie schlock (The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, #553). He grades both the avant-garde (Meshes of the Afternoon, #748) and children's programming (Teletubbies, #4335). He rates American musicals (Shall We Dance, #11) and Japanese samurai flicks (Sanjuro, #18). He ranks the most suspenseful Hitchcock (Notorious, #8) and the worst Star Wars (The Star Wars Holiday Special, #4331). And he defends the artistry of Adam Sandler again (50 First Dates #63), and again (Happy Gilmore #93), and again (The Wedding Singer (#112). It's all here. Westerns (Fort Apache, #102), documentaries (Bowling for Columbine #3677), monster movies from Japan (Green Slime, #1122) and rom-coms from Hong Kong (Needing You #124). Very long movies (Lawrence of Arabia, #1269) are ranked, and very short ones, too (The Dentist, #166). Over 4000 movies are ranked. Every one of those rankings is an opinion. Many of them are wrong, no doubt, but the juxtapositions are funny and stimulating. And the book is filled with commentary on over 1200 films, including humorous rants on some of the worst movies ever made. Read this book and join in the fun
