Good Movies

Everyone has a different opinion when it comes to the top 100 movies ever made. Some lean towards older films, while others only include recent hits at the box office. But whatever the case may be, looking at lists of the top 100 movies can be a great way to expand your knowledge of film and get ideas for the next time you invite friends over.


The American Film Institute (AFI) originally released their list entitled “100 Years…100 Movies” in 1998. The top 100 movies were selected by culling the list down to 400 and then distributing ballots to 1,500 various critics, actors, directors, historians and screenwriters. Here’s the 1998 list:
