Good choice, but I'd have to go with Citizen Kane or Casablanca.

I would agree...Part II is close to perfect as well.

Perfect? No. I don't think so.

I always have troube deciding between Part 1 and 2. Recently watched Part 1 again and leaning toward that now. I think if Part 1 including the DeNiro flashback scenes like in the book it be perfect but to long. But I'll say its perfect

Problem with all 3 Godfather's is they're too romantic, too glitzy, they paint the Mob as something deserving of respect, which it most certainly is not. Otherwise a friggin amazing set of films:D

The Godfather (part 1)

would you agree?

Part II is much better. Thus, it is more perfect.

Good choice, but I'd have to go with Citizen Kane or Casablanca.

Casablanca gets my vote.

Screenplay = Perfect
Direction = Perfect
Performances = Perfect
Cinematography = Perfect
Timing = Perfect

Greatest movie ever made.

Kane and the first Godfather are right up there, but Casablanca tops 'em both, imo.

Assablanca was a bit of a let down.

Godfather 1 and 2 were fantastic. But let's not forget The Wizard of Oz.

Citizen Kane, if you have sat and actually watched this movie and studied it... you see SOOO many things that are just astonishing... Perfect.

Yes The Godfather (and Part II) are perfect in every way

Pulp Fiction gets my vote as well

Unforgiven
Gladiator
LA Confidential
Open Range

to me, these are pretty close to being perfect films.

Oh shit. Lawrence of Arabia was amazing as well. Along with The Ten Commandments.
Champion of Europa

The Good The Bad and The Ugly

That's got my vote. It takes time to build it's story, and each scene acheives exactly what it is going for.

Dr. Strangelove is pretty solid as well....so is One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest

It's not perfect seeing as there was visible errors in the movie, but 1 and 2 are definatly the best movies ever.

John la Rock

See No Evil.

Yes, I am kidding.

I think The Elephant Man deserves mentioning here. It has the top spot for my favorite movie of all time.
