Princess Mononoke
Memento
Equilibrium or The Fountain
I don’t see these enough
Fully believe Equilibrium would be our Matrix if the Matrix didn’t exist
Hunt for the Wildepeople
Krull is one that stays in all my libraries. It’s so obscure yet has names like Liam Neeson, Robbie Coltrane, and David Battley. It was my dad’s favorite movie.
Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgement Day
*The Terminator […]
They dropped, for whatever reason, the The after the first movie.
Because there’s always more than one after that haha
He’s no longer The Terminator, just A Terminator
Thanks :) The The: also a good band, btw.
You’re twice the the he ever was!
American History X and The Green Mile
No particular order. Also, it’s movies that I watched, can’t speak on essentials that I might be missing.
It’s kinda hard to make a list on essentials tho. Because your personal taste obviously plays a big role. I can’t see my girlfriend liking more than 10 percent of those…
Schindlers List
Gladiator
No country for old men
The grand Budapest hotel
The big Lebowski
The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers
Star Wars (the original one)
Requiem for a dream
Pulp fiction
The good, the bad, the ugly
The lives of others
La vita é Bella
All quiet on the western front (1930 version)
The dark knight
The Truman Show
2001: Space odyssey
Alien
7 Samurai
Princess Mononoke
Trainspotting
Boyz N the Hood
Scarface
The Godfather 1, 2
The Matrix
Clockwork Orange
Shutter Island
Kingdom of Heaven

Honorable mentions because they are popular and everybody always talks about them (I like a lot of them, too. Don’t consider them essentials tho):
Inception
Interstellar
Fight Club
Harry Potter
Return of the King
Rest of Star Wars (whatever people consider the good ones at last)
Saving Private Ryan
Django Unchained
Toy Story
The Lion King
Listing a bunch of decaprio movies and not adding Romeo and Juliet feels wrong. Everyone should experience it at least once.

- Hot Fuzz
- Mad Max: Fury Road
- Spirited Away
- Taxi Driver
- The Matrix
- Unforgiven
- Nosferatu
- Suspiria ('77)
- 12 Angry Men
- Psycho
- The Wizard of Oz
Secretary (2002)
Think what you want, this movie has layers of depth to it. Every time I watch it I feel like I learn something new about a character and why they are the way they are.
