How was the devil formed?

Fr. Oscar Lukefahr said Everything God creates is good.  He created all the angels in Heaven as good. However, as any good father would do, he allowed his angels the right to choose. One fallen angel chose to become evil, and he became a fallen angel, later to be named Satin, Lucifer or the Devil.

He said that while God created all good, he allowed the Devil to do is evil.  So the Devil did. However, because God was the creator of everything, including the Devil, the Devil could not defeat God nor destroy the kingdom of Christ.

The Devil chose to reject God and His good, and he chose to tempt the first man and woman to walk away from God and toward sin.  Adam and Eve were also given the right to choose, because what fun would it be to live in a world where you had no way to make it better.  So the Devil decided that he would tempt them.

He said:

Genisis said that God told the first humans not to eat from the tree of knowledge, and this was his way of saying that they must accept God's laws which tell us what is good and what is evil.  But the first human beings disobeyed God's command.  Seduced by the devil, they preferred themselves to God, thinking they could thereby be like God.

Instead, their sin brought tragic consequences.  Satan gave them a false image of God as one who was jealous to keep power from them.  They became afraid of God.  They lost the soul's control over their body, the accord between man and woman, harmony from creation, and freedom from death.

Sin flooded the world and has affected all of history.  It has affected us, for we are drawn toward what is wrong and trapped by evils which cannot come from God.  This can be unerstood only in connection with the sin of our first parents.  

Because of their sin, our first parents transmitted a human nature deprived of holiness and justice, a state known as original sin.  Original sin does not wholly corrupt human nature.  But id does deprive us of original holiness and weakens our natural powers.  It subjects us to ignorance, suffering, and death.  It gives us an inclination toward sin called concupiscence.  As a result, we must struggle with sin.  We are tempted by Satan and negatively influenced by sinful sinful situations in society.

So while everything God created was good, including angels and humans, he gave us the right to accept or reject his laws. Yet when one angel rejected God, he became the devil and created sin and hell.  Hell is one of the biggest deterrents for those who believe in God's laws from sinning.

Are atheists given a guardian angel?

An interesting question that occurred to me as I was studying angels was this: if a person is an atheist, will that person still be given a personal angel?

The authors of The New Theological Movement addressed this issue. And while the answer they gave was to another question, I think it would also answer mine.  They wrote:

Will the anti-Christ have an angel guardian? If he is a human being, he will have an angel guardian. Even though he will be a great enemy of God, the Lord will still love him – the expression of this love is the gift of a guardian angel.

I imagine that answers my question.

Best guy movies ever

American Sniper

Now that we have defined what qualifies as a guy movie, here is a list of what many movie experts consider to be the best guy movies ever. All the movies listed here are on one best guy movie list or another.

While many of the movies here are high grossing, award-winning films (like The Godfather and Fargo), some are box office flops that have become guy movie classics (such as Shawshank Redemption and Blade Runner).

While I attempt a ranking here, any such ranking is merely subjective and suited only the taste of the author.  I tend to prefer movies with substance, so this should explain why movies like The Godfather and Thief are ranked higher than Kill Bill or Tommy Boy. Still, all the movies listed here are must watch movies for any guy.

So keep in mind that while I make a feeble attempt at a ranking here, any such ranking is merely subjective, and generally change from one author to another. Also keep in mind here that I have a list of over 200 guy movies I have yet tod watch (or have watched too long ago to rank at this moment).

So, here is my ranking of the movies that I have watched up to this date. 

1. Dirty Harry (1971):  
   
   Clint Eastwood stars as a tough guy cop by the name of Dirty Harry Callahan. Most guy lists have this one at number one and, yeah, we feature it high here too.  Dirty Harry is a good guy cop who uses bad guy tactics to get what he wants. The movie was so successful that most subsequent cop films have copied the Dirty Harry genre. The American Film Institute ranked it as the 41st best movie of all time. The film is directed by John Siegel.
2. The Godfather (1972):
   
   A classic Martin Scorsese film includes a well-spun story of a mafia family and their quest to protect their empire from rival families.  It stars Marlin Brando as Don Corleone, also known as the Godfather, and a cast of actors who became famous because of their roles in this movie, including Al Pacino, James Caan, Robert Duvall, John Cazale, and Richard Castellano. The scene where Jack Woltz (John Marley) wakes up with blood all over himself, and the head of his $600,000 horse next to him, might just be the best scene in any guy movie ever. This was his punishment for refusing to accept what the godfather said was "an offer you can't refuse." The movie won Academy awards for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor in a Lead Role (Brando), best actor in supporting role (Duvall, Caan, Pacino), and much more. Adjusted for inflation, the film was the top grossing film of all time for many years. Of course, it also has one of the best guy movie theme songs.
3. American Beauty (1999):  Kevin Spacey plays a married guy going through a midlife crisis. He buys the red Camaro all guys yearn for, falls in love with his daughter's best friend, and... a twist at the end makes this one a killer movie. The film was a very successful box office hit, grossing over $350 million. It won Academy awards for best actor, best director, best picture, best original screenplay, and best cinematography. It also won many other awards. 
4. The American Sniper (2014): Glenn Beck describes this movie best: "This movie left me a bit shell-shocked. All the stuff actual movie critics will talk about is true. Bradley Cooper is Oscar worthy. You completely forget it is him. Director Clint Eastwood is a genius. The opening scene is one of the most powerfuld on film. I would say it is the psycho shower scene if we were still in the age of innocence. But we are not, and that is what I took from the movie...Hard to watch. Harsh in every way. A true vision of war and hatred. A true depiction of American heroes. Brilliantly done all around." The movie did not win an Oscar, although it made over $420 million to Oscar-winning Birdman's $76.5 million. 
5. Hacksaw Ridge (2016): This Mel Gibson film depicts the true story of Desmond T. Doss (Andrew Garfield), a Seventh-Day Adventist Christian who joins the military during WWII despite vowing never to touch a weapon. He became the first conscientious objector, and the only person to never shoot a gun, to be awarded the Medal of Honor. The film also stars Vince Vaughn, Sam Worthington, and Luke Bracey.
6. Band of Brothers (2001): This was a made for TV series, lasting one season for 10 episodes. The series is produced by Stephen Spielberg and Tom Hanks and follows the East Company of the U.S. Army's 101st Division on each of their missions during WWII. 
7. The Godfather II (1974): I actually thought this Martin Scorsese film was better than the original Godfather, but I cannot seem to rank it higher than the original. In fact, it begins as the prequel and turns into the sequel. The plot is good, the unapologetic killing is awesome, and the ending will leave you yearning for more.  This time, Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) is the godfather who has to protect his family after an attempt on his life.  The movie also features flashbacks to how Don Corleone (Robert De Niro) becomes the godfather. The movie also features Robert Duvall as Tom Hagan.  The move made greater than $54 million worldwide on a $13 million budget, and, like the original, is listed in TV Guides top 50 movies of all time. 
8. The Dark Knight (2008):  
   
   This was the second in a trilogy of Dark Knight movies that created a more sinister, dark, and realistic Gotham.  You know Kieth Ledger does an impeccable job as the ultimate villain -- the Joker -- when it is he, and not Batman (Christian Bale) who is featured on posters and advertisements. "Why so serious?" says an unsympathetic, nonapologetic, vengeful, relentless, antagonist. This one is definitely not meant for kids. Gary Oldman likewise plays a very good Lt. James Gordon. Michael Caine plays Alfred Pennyworth, Morgan Freeman as Lucius Fox, and Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent/  Face. Ledger was a posthumous winner of an Academy Award for best supporting actor.  This is by far the best of all the movies based on comic book characters. 
9. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016): A direct prequel to the original Star Wars, Rogue One involves a group of rebels who try to steal the plans to the Death Star. 
10. Cinderella Man (2005): James Braddock (Russel Crowe) is a boxer who runs into hard times during the Great Depression. With the help of his trainer (Paul Giamatti) and wife (Renee Zellweger), he is given a second chance that he fully takes advantage of, earning him the nickname: "Cinderella Man." 
11. Casino (1995): A Martin Scorcese-directed film follows the story of Ace (Robert De Niro) who his hired by a mob operative to manage a casino. He falls in love with a former prostitute (Sharon Stone), although tensions soon erupt. Sharon becomes entangled in a web of deceit between her former boyfriend and Ace's longtime friend, Nicky (Joe Pesci). The film also stars Frank Vincent, Kevin Pollak, and Don Rickles. The film was criticized for its violence and profanity, although that's exactly what we want in a guy movie. Still, it received mostly positive review. Sharon Stone won an Academy Award for best performance by an actress. 
12. The Searchers (1956): This is a John Ford western starring John Wayne as a Civil War veteran who spends years searching for his niece who was kidnapped by Indians.  This is often considered as the best western of all time.  The movie also stars Wayne's son Patrick Wayne.
13. Sands of Iwo Jima (1949): Sgt. Stryker (John Wayne) said, "You gotta learn right and you gotta learn fast. And any man that doesn't want to cooperate, I'll make him wish he had never been born." This is a drama/ war film that follows a group of Marines from training into the Battle of Iwo Jima during WWII. 
14. For A Few Dollars More (1965): This is the third in a series of three spaghetti westerns directed by Sergio Leon. This one once again features "the man with no name" -- Manco (Clint Eastwood), and this time he is a bounty hunter who joins forces with "the man in black --Colonel Douglas Mortimer (Lee Van Cleef) -- to hunt down El Indio (Gian Maria Volonte), one of the most wanted outlaws in the West.   
15. Ben Hur (1959):  
    
    In A.D. 26, Judah Ben-Hur (Charlton Heston) is a Jewish prince who is betrayed and sent into slavery.  After regaining his freedom, he returns for revenge.  The movie is best known for its chariot sequence.  It was the highest grossing film of 1959 and the second highest grossing film (up to that point) of all time behind Gone with the Wind.  The movie grossed about $30 million by 1970 and is generally credited with saving MGM studies. It was nominated for 12 Academy Awards, winning an unprecedented 11 (only Titanic in 1998 and Lord of the Rings: Return of the Kings in 2004 would match this feat).  I remember watching this movie with my dad when I was a kid, and him telling me it was his favorite movie.  
16. Lawrence of Arabia (1962): T.E. Lawrence (Peter O'Toole) is a flamboyant British lieutenant sent on an epic mission in Arabia. Generally categorized as one of the best movies of all time, it currently receives a 99% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.  It also won seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Score.  It's based on a true story. 
17. Bridge over the River Kwai (1957):  Starring William Holden, this movie went on to win seven Academy awards and is considered by many as one of the best films of all time. It is work of fiction, although based on actual events occurring in WWII. This is another movie I remember watching with my dad. 
18. Once Upon a Time in the Old West (1968): Directed by Sergio Leone and starring Henry Fonda as Frank, the heartless villain, Charles Bronson as his arch nemesis, Jason Robards as Bandit, and Claudia Cardinale as the broad.  It was originally released as a Sergio Leon spaghetti western (meaning it was made cheaply in Europe) and was two hours and 40 minutes long.  It was an instant success.  When released in the U.S. they cut the movie down to less than two hours, and it bombed. In its original cut, it is now considered a classic and is listed as one of the top 100 movies ever. The movie also has a great soundtrack. 
19. The Fast And The Furious (2001): Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) is a member of a street racing gang suspected of stealing electronic equipment by hijacking moving trucks. Police Officer Brian O'Connor (Paul Walker) goes undercover to break up the gang, although befriends Dominic and falls in love with his sister.  He has to choose between his loyalty to his job and his new friendship and love. 
20. Goodfellas (1990):  A Martin Scorsese classic.  Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, and Ray Liotta star in this epic mafia film about three men who work their way up through the Mafia hierarchy.  Joe Pesci's performance as a guy who kills anyone who mouths off won him an Oscar for Best Actor in a Supporting Role. The role made him a household name.
21. Gangs of New York. (2002): 
22. Schindler's List (1993): Despite all his classics, this was the first movie Stephen Spielberg won an Academy Award for.  The movie is based on the life of Oskar Schindler, a German businessman who saves the lives of Polish-Jewish refugees who were sent to death camps he was in control of. Along with Spielberg's, the movie won seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Original Score. It is often considered one of the best movies of all time.
23. License to Kill (1989): Many Bond fans say Timothy Dalton does a bad James Bond.  Others say he does the best James Bond in that he is closest to the Bond in the books.  This movie is definitely Bond at his best.  My apologies to the original Bond actor, but this Bond flick is by far the best of the franchise. The movie also features Robert Brown as M and Desmond Llewelyn as Q. 
24. Goldfinger (1964):  This is quintessential Sean Connery as Bond and by far the best 007 movies. From his classic one-liners, to his ability to use his cunning to win over Bond women, to the supped up car. it's simply the best in this franchise.  This is saying a lot since all but one movie in this franchise has earned a spot on this list*.  The movie features Bernard Lee as M and Desmond Llewelyn as Q.
25. The Unforgiven (1992):  Clint Eastwood (also the director) plays a retired gunslinger named William Munny who is reluctantly pulled back into action.   Also starring Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman, and Richard Harris. 
26. Taxi Driver (1976):  Another Martin Scorsese classic. It's the first movie starring Robert De Niro, earning him an Oscar and immortality as a stud guy actor, perhaps the best of all time. Yes, you heard that right!  While Clint Eastwood and John Wayne may have more recognizable names, De Niro appears on this list more often than anyone else.  The film also features Jodi Foster. 
27. Raging Bull (1980):  Like I said, among the most common names to appear on this list is Robert De Niro, who stars in this epic Martin Scorsese boxing flick. It might just be the best boxing movie of all time, topping, maybe, even Rocky. It's generally regarded as the best film of the 1980s. 
28. Rocky (1976): A story about how an amateur boxer named Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) falls in love and gets a chance to fight for a championship. The movie was made for just over a $1 million and grossed over $225 million. It won three Oscars, including best picture. Oh, and by the way, the movie turned Sylvester Stallone into an instant mega hit guy stud actor.  The movie also stars Burgess Meredith as Rocky's trainer and Burt Young as Rocky's brother-in-law.  Oh, and by the way, the Rocky Theme Song is one of the best guy theme songs.
29. Creed (2015):  Adonis Johnson (Michael B. Jordan) is the son of former heavyweight fighter Apollo Creed. He chooses his father's best friend Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) to be his manager. 
30. The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976): After Union Soldiers burn his home and murder his family, Josey Wales (Clint Eastwood) joins a Confederate Guerrilla unit. After the war ends he is hunted down like an outlaw by the same Union Soldiers who murdered his family.  Josey meets up with an elderly Indian.  Josey says to him, "I get to liking someone, they ain't around long."  The Indian said, "I notice when you get to disliking someone, they ain't around long neither." Oh, and by the way, this movie was directed by Clint Eastwood.
31. Back to the Future (1985): How could you not include this movie on any list.  This is actually my personal best movie ever.  Marty Mcfly (Michael J. Fox) jumps into a Delorian souped up by Dr. Emmet Brown (Christopher Loyd) and travels back to 1952.  Once there, he must convince the Doc to help him get back to the future. It has one of the best theme songs ever.  Back to the Future II and III are also good, but not nearly as good as the original. 
32. The Deer Hunter (1978):  Michael (Robert De Niro), Stan (John Cazale) Steven (John Savage), and Nick (Christopher Walken) and Linda (Meryl Streep) live in a small town that becomes impacted by the Vietnam War. The movie flashes back and forth between living in the town and life on the battlefront. 
33. A Bronx Tale (1993): A dad (Robert De Niro) is concerned about his son (Francis Capra) becoming friends with a mob boss (Chazz Palminteri).  A really nice plot involving a relationship by the boy with a black girl.  It also features a guest appearance by Joe Pesci. 
34. Hoosiers (1986): This is an inspirational movie about a coach (Gene Hackman) who aids a team of unknown basketball players to the Indiana State Championship game.  Dennis Hopper plays the dad of one of the players, and he earns an Emmy nomination for his efforts. This movie often gets recognition as the best sports movie of all time (although I rank Rocky higher). 
35. Rocky II (1979): An impressive sequel starring Sylvester Stallone as Rocky Balboa who once again plays the little-known boxer who gets a second chance to become a champion. Burgess Meredith once again plays Rocky's trainer. 
36. Rocky III (1982): Rocky (Sylvester Stallone) returns as the champion.  This time he has to face Thunderlips (Hulk Hogan) in a charity bout, and Clubber Lang (Mr. T).  When his coach (Buirgess Meredith) dies, he turns to the man he fought in Rockey I, and defeated in Rockey II, to become his new coach -- Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers). 
37. The Shawshank Redemption (1994):  Based on a Stephen King novelette that takes place in a 1946 prison.  Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) is a banker who is accused of a crime he says he didn't commit and ends up in the Shawshank State Prison.  The story spun is one that could only come from the mind of Mr. King. 
38. Cool Hand Luke (1967):  Luke (Paul Newman) refuses to conform.  He ends up in a prison camp, and a member of a chain gang and he becomes the hero of the other gang members. Also starring George Kennedy as one of the gang members.  Kennedy wins a Global Award for his performance. Also featuring Dennis Hopper.  
39. Star Wars, Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith (2005):  Near the end of the clone wars, Darth Sidious reveals himself, and unleashes the final part of his plan to rule the galaxy, which begins by convincing Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen), already upset with the Jedi Knights for precluding him from becoming a Jedi, to become his apprentice as Darth Vader.  This is by far the best of all the Star Wars movies, although you must watch all the others in order of release (4,5,6,1 and 2) in order to make it work.  Featuring Christopher Lee as Count Dooku/ Darth Tyranus and Samuel L. Jackson as Mace Windu.
40. Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980): Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) trains under the Jedi Master Yoda. Darth Vader Lures Skywalker into a deathtrap in order to lure him to the dark side. In the quest that ensues, Skywalker learns a deplorable truth. The film also stars Harrison Ford as Han Solo. 
41. Terminator (1984) Arnold Schwarzenegger plays a killer robot from the future that has one mission: kill Sarah Conner.   Best quote: "I'll be back!"
42. Bullitt:  Walter Chalmers (Robert Vaughn) holds Frank Bullitt (Steve McQueen) responsible when a man he was protecting is shot dead.  Bullitt sets off on a mission to determine who the true killers are. The movie features McQueen in the first real San Francisco chase ever seen on the big screen, and what some consider the best movie car chase ever. Robert Duvall makes an appearance as a cab driver. 
43. The French Connection (1971): Jimmy "Popeye" Doyle (Gene Hackman) and Budy "Cloudy" Russo (Roy Scheider) are police detectives are after narcotics dealers -- particularly Alain Charnier (Fernando Rey) -- who smuggled $32 million worth of heroin into the New York from France.  The movie features one of the best good guy-bad guy car-train chases ever. The film won five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Adapted Screen Play, and Best Editing. It's listed as one of the best movies of all time. Also of significance is that this movie spawned an era of cop movies.
44. Thief (1981): Frank (James Caan) is an experienced jewel thief who has things pretty figured out.  All he has to do now is create a family with Jessie (Tuesday Weld).  When his associate (James Belushi) makes a pickup, he discovers $185,000 of Franks money was lifted.  Frank learns it was a high-level crime boss named Leo (Robert Prosky), who offers Frank a job that will set him up for life.  To convince Frank of his power, he helps Frank obtain a baby on the black market that he named after his mentor nicknamed Okra (Willie Nelson).  The film earned high praise from critics and currently holds a 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
45. Boys Town (1938): Father Edward J. Flanagan (Spencer Tracy) believes there is no such thing as a bad boy, and so he takes in a group of delinquent boys into a home he called "Boys Town."

46. Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol (2011): Tom Cruise reprises his role as IMF agent Ethan Hunt, who is assisted by fellow IMF agents William Brandt (Jeremy Renner) and Benji Dunn (Simon Pegg).  When a Kremlin building is blown up, the IMF is blamed.  The president initiates Ghost Protocol, which shuts down the IMF.  So Hunt and a new team of IMF agents must work on their own to clear the IMF and to prove the U.S. was not responsible.  This was the highest grossing Tom Cruise movie ever. It is the best of the Mission: Impossible movies. 
47. Reservoir Dogs (1992): A film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino about six men --Mr. Blonde (Michael Madsen), Mr. Blue (Edward Bunker), Mr. Brown (QT), Mr. Orange (Tim Roth), Mr. Pink (Steve Buscemi) and Mr. White (Harvey Keitel)-- who performed a heist, but it did not go as planned. The movie revolves around Mr. Orange, who is dying in a pool of blood in an abandoned warehouse.  The six begin to suspect one of them is an undercover cop. Some view it as the best independent film ever made.
48. From Russia with love (1963):  This is another classic Bond (Sean Connery) flick that includes an excellent plot line and a fight on a moving train that became a legendary battle.  It also stars an iconic white cat stroking antagonist whose face is not revealed until a later Bond film called "You only live twice" in 1967. Also featuring Bernard Lee as M.
49. Dr. No (1962):  This original 007 stars Sean Connery as James Bond, and it the only one that holds true to simplistic themes of the books, as opposed to one based on scientific gadgets and action scenes of Hollywood. Famous line: "It's a Smith and Wesson, and you've had your six."  The movie also features Joseph Wiseman as Dr. No and Bernard Lee as M. The James Bond movies all feature one of the best theme songs ever.
50. Patton (1970):  Patton (George C. Scott) said:  No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country." Also starring Karl Malden as General Omar M. Bradley.
51. The Hustler (1961): Fast Eddie (Paul Newman), with the help of his manager Bert Gordon (George C. Scott), is on a mission to beat the best pool player in the world, Minnesota Flats (Jackie Gleason). Yet accomplishing this goal comes at a high cost to himself. It was an immediate success, becoming an instant classic. 
52. The Seven-Ups (1973):  A tough detective named Buddy Manucci (Roy Scheider) is the leader of the Seven-Ups, a group of plainclothes detectives who use unorthodox tactics to make sure criminals they catch get prison sentences of seven years and up. While searching for the person who killed his partner, he uncovers a plot to kidnap mobsters for money. 
53. The Untouchables (1987):  This Brian De Palma film is based on a book of the same name.  Al Capone (Robert De Niro), a gangster during prohibition, is hunted down by Elliot Ness (Kevin Cosner) and a beat cop named Jimmy Malone (Sean Connery).  The best line comes from Connery: "Isn't that just like a wop... brings a knife to a gun fight." It was nominated for four Academy awards, of which Sean Connery won for best-supporting actor. 
54. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966): Blondie (Clint Eastwood) joins an unlikely partner named Tuco (Eli Wallach) in a hunt to find a fortune in gold buried in a remote cemetery before the bad guys get it, one of whom is an Angel Eyes (Lee Van Cleef), an unfeeling, sociopathic mercenary. Among the final scenes is one of the most classic scenes in any western flick. The movie also comes with one of the best movie theme songs, along with James Bond, the Godfather, and Beverly Hills Cop. This is often considered the best of a series of westerns directed by Sergio Leone
55. Psycho (1960):  This is an Alfred Hitchcock adaptation of a horror novel of the same name by Robert Bloch. Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins) is a taxidermist who runs a motel.  When a young secretary named Marion Crane goes into hiding after embezzling money from her boss, she ends up at the Bates Motel, where she was last seen.  Her sister and boyfriend go looking for her, and when they meet the taxidermist they ultimately discover a horrifying truth. The movie was made on a low budget, was black and white, and originally had mixed reviews.  However, in the end, it had outstanding box office returns which lead to four Academy Award nominations. 
56. The Silence of the Lambs (1991): This is actually the second movie to feature Dr. Hannibal Lecter (the other is Manhunter, which also makes this list), a brilliant psychiatrist and cannibalistic killer (Anthony Hopkins). Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) is a young FBI trainee who uses his help to get into the minds of a serial killer called "Buffalo Bill." This was the best horror/ crime movie I have ever watched, and obviously, I'm not the only one to think this way as the film grossed $272.2 million worldwide after having only an $18 million budget. It was only the third film to win an Academy Award in all five categories: best picture, best actor, best actress, best director, and best adapted screenplay (the others being One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest and It Happened One Night). The movie was adapted from the 1988 Thomas Harris novel of the same name.  It was also the first horror movie to win the best picture. 
57. Star Wars (1978): Luke Skywalker (Mark Hammel) joins forces with a Jedi Knight named Obi-Wan Kenobi (Alec Guinness) and a smuggler named Han Solo (Harrison Ford) to save the Galaxy from the evil dark lord Darth Vader (voiced by James Earl Jones). Vader is easily one of the best villains of all time.  It also features one of the best movie theme songs. 
58. Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi (1983): Luke Skywalker (Mark Hammel), with the assistance of Han Solo (Harrison Ford), learns the true identity of Darth Vader.
59. Expendables:  (2010):  An instant classic with a star-studded cast of Sylvester Stallone, Jason Stratham, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Steve Austin, and Mickey Rourke, with guest appearances by Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger. 
60. Fargo (1996): Jerry Lundgaard (William H. Macy) is a struggling car salesman desperate for money, so he hires two men (Steve Buscemi, Peter Stormare) to kidnap his wife for ransom. Things get out of hand right off the bat when the kidnappers are pulled over, and this leads to a series of killings. Marge Gunderson (Francis McDormand) is a pregnant police chief who investigates these murders. The movie was highly praised, won some prestigious awards, and is on many lists of top 100 movies of all time. It was written, directed, and produced by the Coen Brothers. 
61. No Country for Old Men (2007): In West Texas in 1980, Llewellyn Moss (Josh Brolin) comes across a drug deal gone wrong, where dead bodies are askew, and many wounded are still alive and begging for water. He finds a case with $2 million and he takes it. This chance encounter, along with his own greed, entangles him in a neat misadventure not too much unlike Fargo. Also starring Tommy Lee Jones as the Sherrif and Woody Harrelson as a bounty hunter. The movie received positive reviews and won four Academy awards: Best Picture, Best performance by a male actor in a supporting role (Javier Bardem) and Best Director (Coen Brothers). 
62. The Usual Suspects (1995): A cripple by the name of Roger Kint (Kevin Spacey) tells the story of how five criminals got together and became entwined in a series of events that lead to a tumultuous gun battle.  Also starring Gabriel Byrne as Dean Keaton and Stephen Baldwin as Michael McManus. 
63. Deliverance (1972): Ed (John Voight), Lewis (Burt Reynolds), Bobby (Ned Beatty), and Drew (Ronny Cox) set of on a canoe trip down a river. The trip is all fun until they come upon a couple Hillbillies who terrorize them. While the movie got great reviews and was well received, the movie might be best known for it's "Dueling Banjos" scene near the beginning, where Drew performs the song with a strange boy at a gas station. 
64. Mad Max: Road Fury (2015): Furiosa (Charlize Theron) rebels against a tyrannical ruler in a futuristic world where gas and water are scarce.  She escapes in a fast moving truck carrying both water and gas and picks up Mad Max (Tom Hardy), who helps her in her quest for freedom. I normally don't care for apocalyptic movies, yet this one was excellent. It was a very good guy movie, and it received excellent reviews all around. It grossed $378 million worldwide and won six Academy Awards. 
65. Duck You Sucker (1971): Sergio Leone's last film. Juan Miranda (Rod Steiger) is a Mexican outlaw. John Mallory (James Coburn) was an Irish revolutionary who had to flee Italy. Together they get caught up in the Mexican revolution. The movie was a bust when it was released, but has since become a classic, garnishing 90% on rotten tomatoes. It's often considered the most overlooked spaghetti western.

Still, it's in the top 100 best guy movies all time.

95. Swinger (1996):  Trent (Vince Vaughn) and Mike (Jon Favreau) are two aspiring actors heading in different directions.  Mike yearns to get back together with his girlfriend of six years, and Trent doesn't seem to want to grow up.  It's sort of a coming of age movie for adults.

109. Once Upon A Time In America (1984): 
110. Fletch (1985):  Fletch (Chevy Chase) is an investigative news reporter who dons many disguises on his quest to solve a mystery. The movie was a box office success and has now become a cult following, especially among young guys.  Chase described the appeal of the character is "the cheekiness of the guy. . . everybody at that age would like to be as quick-witted as Fletch, and as uncaring about what others think."
111. The Spy Who Loved Me (1977):  James Bond (Roger Moore) participates the best ever ski chases  to begin this one.  He becomes involved in plans to thwart the efforts of a villian whose goal is to nuke the planet.  Bond is constantly thwarted in his plans by a bad guy with steel jaws, amply named Jaws (Richard Kiel). Of course the head villain is Sigmung Stromberg (Curd Jurgens), who has a hideout set underwater and is surrounded by killer sharks, and if you meet his ire, the floor may open where you are standing, and...  His ultimate goal is to create a new civilization underwater.  The fact that Bond has a car that can drive under water is a bonus. The plot is a bit over the top, although still pretty neat. This is one more memorable Bond flicks. The movie features Bernard Lee as M and Desmond Llewelyn as Q. 
112. The Magnificent Seven (1960):  Chris Adams (Yul Brynner) gets seven men together in an attempt to help the residents of an oppressed Mexican village defend their homes against a group of marauding native bandits lead by Calvera (Eli Wallach).  Calvera is one of the best bad guys of all time, perhaps for his "spiny" personality.  The cast of characters also includes Steve McQueen, Robert Vaughn, Charles Bronson, and James Coburn. McQueen was just a relative unknown, and managed to steel scenes from the well known Yul Brynner. This movie is the number 2 most watched movie in TV history, behind only the Wizard of Oz.  It was also so great that its plot has been copied more frequently than any other movie in history (see Three Amigos). Actually, the movie itself was a remake of the Japanese movie Seven Samurai (1954), which is, I am told, also worth watching. It's a Sergio Leon spaghetti Western.
113. Pulp Fiction (1994): Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules Winfield (Samuel L. Jackson) are caught up in a plot that mixes humor with violence while working for drug lord Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames).  Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis) crosses Marsellus, forcing him to go on the run with his girlfriend.  Also starring Uma Thurman as the wife of Marsellus.  This movie landed seven Oscar nominations and best screenplay, and revitalized the career of Travolta. It's one of those movies that forces you to keep thinking about long after the credits are done rolling. This is a Quentin Tarantino classic.
114. One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest (1975):  Jack Nicholson, Danny Devito and Christopher Lloyd turned this #1 best selling novel into an epic film. This was one of those movies that was so great that it gave rise to many elite acting careers (The Magnificent Seven was another).
115. The Professionals (1966): Dynamiter Bill Dolworth (Burt Lancaster), horse specialist Hans Ehrengard (Robert Ryan), and longbow expert Jake Sharp are set on a mission to rescue a kidnapped a beautiful mistress (Claudia Cardinale) from the leader of Mexican rebels lead by Raza (Jack Panance). A neat twist at the end makes this big budget, thriller western one of the best.  It's a Sergio Leon spaghetti Western.
116. The Red Badge of Courage (1951): Based on a novel by Stephen Crane. Henry Fleming (Audie Murphy) is a Civil War private who has never fought before. He fears the upcoming fight and flees from the first fight. He feels guilty when he returns to his troop because he is alone does not have a red badge of courage. He lies about what happened to him while he was gone. However, as the story unfolds, he realizes that the other soldiers feel the same way about war as he does.  
117. From Here to Eternity (1953): It's a WWII movie that  delves into the lives of three soldiers (Montgomery Clift, Burt Lancaster, and Frank Sinatra) and takes Place in Pearl Harbor just prior to the attack.

118. The Last Detail (1973): Two Navy men (Jack Nicholson and Otis Young) are commissioned to take a young man (Randy Quaid) to prison for some dopey charge, and they decided to show him one last good time on the way. There really is no plot other than that, the movie just follows these men as they venture across the country and partake in a bunch of drunken antics. 
119. Smokey and the Bandit (1977): Bandit (Bert Reynolds) is hired to run a trailer full of Coor's beer (at the time considered among the finest beers in America, and it was only sold east of the Mississippi River) from Texas to Atlanta in 28 hours. While his friend Snowman drives the truck, the Bandit drives a Trans Am to divert attention from the haul. In the meantime, the Bandit picks up a bride (Sally Field). Her "to be" father in law, Sheriff Buford T. Justice (Jackie Gleason) is pent on a mission to capture the Bandit, and foil his plans. 
120. Three Amigos (1986):  A plot similar to The Magnificent Seven, this time starring Chevy Chase, Martin Short, and Steve Martin.  This time the plot has a humorous twist, although the bad guy is equally as "spiney" as the one in the movie whose plot it copies. One of the better guy comedies of all time.
121. The Crow (1994) Eric Draven (Brendon Bruce Lee) is killed, and his girlfriend raped and killed. Draven is buried, and then comes back as The Crow. His mission now is to get his revenge and set things right. Brendon was killed in this movie, and it has become a cult classic.

Stand By Me (1986): Gordie (Wil Wheaton), Chris (River Phoenix), Teddy (Corey Feldman) and Vern (Jerry O'Connell) set off on an adventure through the woods, and across a railroad track, to find the body of a dead teen.  They are challenged by a group of bullies lead by Ace (Kiefer Sutherland).

The movie was nominated for various awards, although did not win any that I am aware of. 
123. The Breakfast Club (1985): This star studded movie consists of five misfit high school students (Emilio Estevez, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy) who are trapped in detention.  But they find a way to break some rules, smoke some pot, and learn that they actually have a lot in common.

The Blues Brothers (1980): Jake (John Belushi) and Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) successfully bring this Saturday Night Live skit to the big screen.  Jake and Elwood are fresh out of prison, and are on a quest to get their old band back together.  This is the only musical to make the list, and it's totally worth watching. 
126. National Lampoons European Vacation (1985):  Yet another Chevy Chase movie on this list. The key scene in this is when he is dreaming about that other woman in the pool. Classic!!!
127. Rambo: First Blood (1982):  Vietnam Veteran Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) uses his combat skills to save himself from the lawmen of a small town who abuse him. This inspired Rambo dress days in high school, where kids would come to school dressed in Rambo gear, including knives and guns. Imagine that happening in today's liberal America where words hurt more than knives, and guns kill and people don't. 
128. Lethal Weapon (1987): Mel Gibson makes this list quite a few times as well.  Parts II and III and IV are also worthwhile. 
129. A History of Violence (2006): A crime movie directed by David Cronenberg and based on a novel by John Wagner. Tom Stall (Viggo Mortensen) is the owner of a diner. When two criminals attempt to rob his diner, Stall saves the day by using skills you wouldn't expect a bar owner to have.

130. True Grit (1969): U.S. Marshal Rooster Cogburn (John Wayne) is paid $100 by Mattie Ross to hunt down her father's killer and bring him back for a trial and hanging.  Best scene is when Rooster kills Moon (Dennis Hopper) and says to him, "Well, there's nothing I can do for you now."  Directed by John Ford, and also starring Robert Duvall. Wayne did a stellar job as Rooster Cogburn, winning an Academy award for his effort. This was by far Wayn'es best performance.
131. X-Men (2000): Wolverine/ Logan (Hugh Jackman) is a mutant who discovers an underground mutant school lead by Charles Xavier/ Professor X (Patrick Stewart). Mutants who attend the school call themselves X-Men.

The movie won 7 Saturn awards, including Best Actor and Best Director (Bryan Singer). The movie also features James Marsden as Cyclops, Halle Berry as Storm, and Brian Cox as Col. William Stryker. 
132. Superman (1978): Daily Planet Reporter Clark Kent/ Superman (Christopher Reeve) falls in love with Lois Lane (Margot Kidder) and battles the evil Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman) and his henchman (Ned Beatty).

Adjusted for inflation, it's the 3rd highest rated R rated movie of all time behind Godfather and Exorcist. It was nominated for many awards, winning a Grammy for best soundtrack album (rightly so as it includes one of the best theme songs ever), and people's choice award for favorite motion picture. Best Quote comes from Axel: "I ain't on duty, so my dick can be hard." 
134. Mission: Impossible (1996): Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) is on a mission to uncover the mole who framed him for murder.

The movie includes one of the best theme songs ever.
135. Star Wars: Episode 1 (1999): Qui-Gonn-Jin (Liam Neeson) is the Jedi Master of Obi-Wan-Kenobi (Ewan McGregor). They meet up with a young Anakin Skywalker (Jake Lloyd) before he became a Jedi.  The boy is a skilled pilot who dreams of becoming a Jedi.

138. Bloodsport (1988): Frank W. Dux (Jean Claude Van Damme) trained most of his life to participate in Kumite, the ultimate martial arts tournament, where many participants are seriously injured and killed.  To become champion he has to go through Chong Li.  Van Damme shows off his skills in this movie, sealing his fate as a guy movie actor stud.

Dick Jones (Ronny Cox) and his fellow human police officers despise the idea of having a robot doing their job.  The movie was one of the best films in 1987, and inspired a franchise that resulted in comic books, video games, a cartoon series, a sequel, and a remake in 2014.

144. Batman (1989): This was the first Batman movie since the 1966 adaptation of the 1960s television show "Batman and Robin."  This one, however, was directed by Tim Burton, who made sure the Dark Knight's War on crime in Gotham City held true to the comic book. In this one, Batman (Michael Keaton) begins his crime spree against the notorious Joker (Jack Nicholson). Viki Vale (Kim Basinger) plays Batman's fling, and the theme music is created by the masterful Prince.  Best line was from the Joker:  "Tell me something, my friend. Ever dance with the devil under the pale moon light... I always ask that of all my prey.  I just... like the sound of it." 
145. The Shining (1980): Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) takes a job at the Overlook Hotel so he can write in peace, but peace is not what he gets.   Surely this movie didn't accurately reflect Stephen Kings best selling novel, although it works on the big screen

Chance (Wayne) is assisted by a cripple (Walter Brennan), a drunk (Dean Martin) and a young gunfighter (Ricky Nelson).  Best quote was by Sheriff Chance:  "A man gets shot there's room for reasonable doubt.  A man gets shot that hasn't got a gun, what would you call it?"
156. Wallstreet (1987):  A movie directed by Oliver Stone. Bud Fox (Charlies Sheen) is a young stockbroker willing to do anything to get on top, even taking advantage of insider information provided by his dad (Martin Sheen).  He becomes involved with Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas), who is portrayed as a greedy business tycoon who would do anything to make money at the expense of anyone.  The movie is famous for the Gekko line, "Greed is good."  The movie is a liberal portrayal of how capitalism leads to some people making more money than they deserve. Despite the anti-capitalistic liberal theme, it's a well-spun movie with excellent acting.

Also starring Martin Sheen as Uncle Ben, Sally Field as Aunt May, and Dennis Leary as Captain Stacy.

187. The Simpsons Movie (2007):  It is a fact that any sitcom that garnishes a male audience will last as long as the actors want it to last.  It's for this reason that Homer has lasted on TV since 1987, and why this movie was such a success. You could say the same for Married with Children, which never even made it to the top ten in the TV ratings, but lasted for 11 seasons. In case your wondering, most TV shows are tailored toward women.  This is a fact I learned while in the process of earning that BS in Advertising that I don't use (perhaps because I was too busy watching guy movies when I should have been studying).  The movie is the same type of mindless comedy as the TV series "The Simpsons."
188. The Hunt for Red October (1990): Starring Sean Connery and featuring a Tom Clancy novel.  Did you know that Tom Clancy wrote this New York Time's Bestseller having never even stepped foot in a submarine before?  The best experts said he did a stellar job of describing it.  Clancy's books are elite but long.  The movie is just right. It stars Jack Ryan (Alec Baldwin), a character created by Tom Clancy, and is the best of the Jack Ryan movies.

It should have won one for Best Actor. It was a fast paced movie with action around every corner. 
197. At Close Range  (1986): It's an epic crime thriller based on a true story.

229. The Living Daylights (1987):  James Bond is portrayed by Timothy Dalton in this one, and, while some say Dalton plays a terrible Bond, he actually plays a bond similar to the one in the books.  Likewise, the plot of this one is exceptional, particularly when Bond is being chased by thugs while riding on a cello with a Bond Lady (Kelly Tyler).

A View to a Kill (1985):  James Bond (Roger Moore) uncovers a plot by Max Zoran (Christopher Walken) while investigating a horse racing scam, to create a worldwide microchip monopoly by destroying silicon valley and the West's microchip industry.  This movie begins with a classic scene whereby James Bond is being chased on skis. Zorin was the result of a genetic experiment by the Nazi's with steroids to create a perfect human. I think this was one of the better Bond flicks, with him actually being a spy and all. Plus the Duran Duran theme song is one of the best of all the Bond flicks. The movie features Robert Brown as M and Desmond Llewelyn as Q. 
234. Risky Business (1983):  Joel Goodson (Tom Cruise) is a son of a wealthy businessman who is left home alone after his parents go away on a trip.

237. The Man With The Golden Gun (1974): Scaramanga (Christopher Lee) is the perfect villain for James Bond (Roger Moore). The movie moves along quite well, although the ending is quite disappointing. Scaramanga's mistress (Maud Adams) and Bond's assistant (Britt Ekland) are the Bond girls, with Ekland playing what I think is the best Bond girl of them all. The movie features Bernard Lee as M and Desmond Llewelyn as Q. 
238. You only live twice (1967):  An American spacecraft is hijacked and James Bond (Sean Connery) travels to Japan to investigate a lead. He goes undercover as a Japanese husband and finds the secret hide out of Mr. Osata.

239. Full Metal Jacket (1987):  A U.S. soldier, Private Joker Davis (Matthew Modine) learns the dehumanizing effects of the Vietnam war from boot camp to the battle front.  One of the top ten best war flicks of all time.  
240. Ronin (1998): Sam (Robert De Niro) is a former CIA strategist is hired with his friend (and hitman) Vincent (Jean Reno) and others to retrieve a mysterious briefcase.  A neat twist results in things not working as planned.  Most experts say that this movie moves along similar to a James Bond film. 
241. Delta Force (1986):  A 707 aircraft jetliner is hijacked by Lebanese terrorists.  Major McCoy (Chuck Norris) and Colonel Alexander (Lee Marvin) lead a force to stop the terrorists.  Also starring George Kennedy as Father O'Malley and Robert Vaughn as General Woodbridge.  As I watched this movie I couldn't help but think that this was a warning that 2011 was going to happen if we continued to ignore the terrorists, which we ultimately did.  
242. Predator (1987):  An extraterrestrial warrior tries to heads down a team of commandos headed by Dutch (Arnold Schwarzenegger).  Also starring Carl Weathers and Jessie Ventura.

244. Jaws (1975): Brody (Roy Scheider), Quint (Robert Shaw), and Hooper (Richard Dreyfus) are three men sent on a quest to kill a great white shark that has become a menace to the small community of Amity.  The sequels are also pretty good, but there's nothing like an original.

Major League  (1989): Charlie Sheen stars as an aging pitcher on defunct Cleveland Indians team.  He learns that the owner purposefully put together a losing team in order to sell the team.  However, when they uncover her plan, they purposefully win to spite her.  One of the top ten sports movies of all time.

A film was written by Quentin Tarantino.

258. Mad Max: The Road Warrior: (1981)  Part 2 in the Mad Max series, again starring Mel Gibson as Mad Max, is thought by many to be the best in the series.   
259. 300: Rise of an Empire (2014):  After the death of her husband, King Leonidas, Artemesia seeks the help of Athenian general Themistokles to lead the charge against invading Persian forces lead by Xerxes.

270. The Invention of Lying (2009): Mark Bellison (Ricky Gervais) lives in a world where lying hasn't been discovered yet.  It's a liberal movie that makes fun of God, so if that offends you don't watch this movie.  Still, it's a pretty amusing movie.

It was such a box office success that it was the highest grossing film of 1998, even surpassing Saving Private Ryan.

The movie creates a Gotham City that is less comic book-like and more dark and realistic.  It was a financial success, grossing $274 million worldwide.

310. Star Trek (1979): Due to the success of the original TV series in syndication, efforts were made to create a Star Trek film.  When a cloud comes toward Earth destroying everything in its path, Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner) assumes command of the recently retired USS Enterprise to save the planet.  The old crew of Spock (Leonard Nimoy), DeForest Kelly or Bones (Leonard McCoy) are recruited to be at his side. The film did just well enough to earn a sequel. 
311. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982): Khan Noonien Singh (Ricardo Montalban) first appeared in a 1967 episode of the TV series.  The character is revitalized in this motion film, as he escapes from a 15-year exile to exact revenge on Kirk.  The crew (again played by the original cast) of the Enterprise must stop him from acquiring a powerful device named Genesis.

312. A Knights Tale (2001): Heath Ledger is a young squire who finds a way to pass himself off as a knight, and goes on to compete in jousting championships while courting a young lady. Yes, it's a comedy, and it's quite goofy, although rather entertaining.
313. Showgirls (1995): A young stripper named Naomi (played by former Saved by the Bell star Elizabeth Berkley) is a stripper who tries to become a showgirl in Las Vegas.  There was a lot of criticism regarding the amount of sex and nudity in this big budget film, although most guys won't mind. However, due to the criticism, the movie that costs $45 million to make grossed only $38 million, and was, therefore, a theatrical bomb.  So, while some say it was one of the worse movies ever made, it has become a cult classic.  This is something I find to be normal, where movie bombs only to become iconic, especially when a movie seems to be ahead of its time (see Manhunter above).  Personally, looking above and beyond the nudity, this is a really good movie.
314. Conan the Barbarian (1982): Conan (Arnold Schwarzenegger) sets off to avenge his parents who were slain by an evil sorcerer named Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones). The movie takes place in a pre-historic, magical world. The movie grossed more than $100 million, making, setting the stage for a sequel, and also setting up a great career for Arnold.

318. Rear Window  (1954): An Alfred Hitchcock classic that follows the antics of L.B. Jeffries (James Steward), a photographer who broke his leg and is now forced to sit by his window with nothing else to do but watch his neighbors.  With the assistance of love interest Lisa Freemont (Grace Kelly), Lars Thorwald (Raymond Burr), and Detective Thomas Doyle (Wendell Corey), the plot envelops into one of the best Hitchcock suspense thrillers of all time, if not the best.  It received four Academy Award nominations, and i ranked #41 on the American Film Institute's (AFI) list of top 100 movies of all time. 
319. Under Siege (1992): Casey Ryback (Steven Seagal) is a former S.E.A.L and now cook aboard a ship that comes under siege by mercenaries, and he is the only one who can stop them. Also starring Tommy Lee Jones and Gary Busey as villains.  The move was a box office success, grossing over $156 million worldwide.  However, while it was nominated for awards and ranking on the 100 best movies of all time, it accomplished neither.  Regardless, it is still one of the best guy movies of all time, and worthy of a spot on this list. 
320. Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (1995): It's the sequel to the 1991 movie "Under Siege," only this time takes place aboard a train, and again staring Steven Seagal. Eric Brogasian plays Travis Dane, a computer genius turned terrorist.  The film was only a mild success, although the evilnes

Universal Soldier (1992): Luc Deveraux (Jean Claude Van Damme) and Andrew Scott (Dolph Lundgren) are reanimated as perfected soldiers that take part in a secret army plot.  It was only a mild success, and many critics viewed it as a Terminator copy cat movie. Regardless, it's still a good movie as far as we guys are concerned, earning it a ranking here. 
322. Wayne's World (1992): Based on the Saturday Night Live sketch that starred Wayne Campbell (Mike Myers) and Garth Alger (Dana Carvey). These slacker friends try to promote their show during the course of the movie that also features Rob Lowe, Chris Farley, Meat Loaf, Alice Cooper, and a variety of other current and former stars, although mainly as cameo appearances.  Grossing $121.6 million worldwide, it still reigns as the highest grossing movie based on a Saturday Night Live skit. 
323. The French Connection II (1975): Popey Doyle (Gene Hackman ) travels to Marsielles, France, and tries to capture the elusive evil drug Lord Alain Charnier (Fernando Rey), the one who escaped in the first movie.  The movie has one of the worse medical scenes ever, although is rated 76% on Rotten Tomatoes because it is a very good movie other than that.
324. Wayne's World 2 (1993):Wayne Campbell (Mike Myers) and Garth Alger (Dana Carvey) return, only this time they try to organize a rock concert. Also starring in this one is Christopher Walken, Chris Farley, Kim Basinger, Kevin Pollak, Larry Sellers and Ed O'Neal The movie also features a ton of cameos, including Drew Barrymore, Charlton Heston, Jay Leno, Joe Perry, etc. The movie is equally entertaining as the original, although didn't fare nearly as well. 
325. The Bourne Identity (2002): As usual, the movie wasn't nearly as good as the book, yet it was still pretty good.  Matt Damon plays Jason Bourne, a man who is rescued by a fisherman bullet riddled and suffering from amnesia. While eluding assassins, he races to discover his secret past. 
326. The Conversation (1974).  Henry Caul (Gene Hackman) makes a recording of a conversation between a man and a woman.  He then faces a moral dilemma when he realizes that if he sells this information it may lead to a murder.  Some consider this movie a prequel to the 1998 Gene Hackman film "Enemy of the State." 
327. Black Hawke Down (2001): The movie chronicles the events that occurred during the 1993 raid of Modadishu by the U.S. military. The main criticism of this movie is it's difficult to attach to any of the characters.
328. Rounders (1998): Michael McDermott (Matt Damon) and Lester "Worm" Murphy (Edward Norton) are two young poker players in the underground world.  The story focuses around their efforts to make quick cash to pay off a large debt. It has become a poker cult film.

331. Runaway Train (1985): Oscar Manheim (Voight) is a ruthless bank robber who has escaped from prison before.  This time he escapes with the help of Buck (Eric Roberts), and together they end up getting away on a train. Unfortunately the wrong train was chosen.

Also starring Denver Pyle as Amos Caaruthers and Woody Strode as Pompey. If you only watch one western in your life, this should be it.
335. Kill Bill: Volume 2 (2004): A pregnant bride (Uma Thurman) continues her quest to kill bill, who is now identified as her former boss and lover.  I thought this one was actually better than the first.  The movie features cameos by Lucy Liu, Julie Dreyfus, and Samuel L.

Batman Returns  (1992): This time the Penguin (Danny Devito) causes havoc for the city of Gotham, and Batman (Michael Keaton) once again has to save the day.  Also starring Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman, and Christopher Walken as Max Shreck. The movie was a box office success, although not as financially lucrative as the 1989 Batman. The main reason it didn't do as well is thought to be because of its dark overtures, something guys tend to enjoy. 
348. Naked Gun 2 1/2: The Smell of Fear (1991): Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielson) and his friends Ed Hocken (George Kennedy) and Nordberg (O.J.

Snatch (2000): In the London criminal underworld, a boxing promoter named Turkish (Jason Strathom) finds himself under the thumb of a ruthless gangster who forces him to recruit a gypsy boxer named Mickey O'Neil.  This plot is intertwined with another plot involving a search for a stolen diamond.  The two plots come together in the end for a stunning conclusion.

365. Tora! Tora! Tora! (1970):  A dramatization of the events that lead up to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The movie ends with stunning action scenes, along with the famous for the Isoroku Yamamoto quote: "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."  However, this relatively low ranking comes because the move is quite dramatic, and some guys might take offense to that and lose patience.  
366. Avengers (2012): Tony Stark/ Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Steve Rodgers/ Captain America (Chris Evans), Bruce Banner (The Hulk), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Natasha Romanoff/ Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Clint Barton/ Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), and Nick Fury (Samuel L.

369. Never Say Never Again (1983): This is a remake of 1965 movie Thunderball, and this one also stars Sean Connery.  It was the only Bond film not produced by Eon Productions.  It was met with good reviews and was a box office success, but many critics list it as the worse Bond film. But it's still a good flick, and a good guy flick. A neat scene is when Bond is pretending to be a masseuse and is giving a girl a back massage, and she says, "Can you go a little lower?" He smiles and says, "Lower?"
370. The Family (2013): The head of the Manzoni family (Robert De Niro) gives up his $20 million mobster lifestyle and takes his family into hiding in Normandy, France. Yet old habits are hard to break, and the past winds up catching up to him.  Also starring Tommy Lee Jones.

374. Barbarella (1968):  A futuristic science fiction movie starring a very sexy Jane Fonda. The movie is a little odd (well, a lot odd), but it's still considered a cult classic (mainly because of Jane Fonda, and probably because she shows off her body). 
375. Zoolander (2001): I thought this movie was dumber than dumb and dumber. However, Owen Wilson, Ben Stiller and Will Farrell take part in this classic cult movie.  
376. Another 48 Hours (1990): Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) has 48 hours to clear his name from a potential manslaughter charge.  He once again seeks the help of Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy), Cate's friend who is now a newly released convict.

Jackson) and Hawkey (Jeremy Renner).

Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation (2015): The IMF is broken up, and the agents told to come out from undercover.  Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) remains on the run, convinced he can stop a syndicate from terrorizing any more people.  He is aided by William Brandt (Jeremy Renner), Luthar Stickell (Ving Rhames) and Benji Dunn (Simon Pegg). Alan Hunley (Alec Baldwin) is the CIA director responsible for shutting down IMF, and who puts out an order to take Hunt dead or alive.

Jackson as Nick Fury, and Robert Redford as the bad guy. 
382. Grudge Match (2013): Any comedy directed by Peter Segal, and starring Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro has to be good.  The little bit at the end with Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield was a bonus.

391. Fast And Furious (2009): Han (Sung Kang) is now a membmer of Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel)'s crew. After a hijacking of a fuel tanker, the police are after him and so he disbands the crew and leaves town.  After his girlfriend is murdered, Dominic returns to Los Angeles on a quest to find out who was responsible for her death. By coincidence, Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) is undercover and after the same group of thugs. Dom is admiring a car.  His girl asks, "Something interest you in this car?"  He says, "Just admiring the body work."  She says, "Are you one of those boys who prefers cars to women?"

392. Fast Five (2011): Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) and Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) are now on the same team and plan to steal $100 million from a corrupt businessman while being pursued by Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson). The movie is full of fast action, women, good guy lines, and speed. However, it seems to get off the beaten path of reality. It's still a great guy movie, however.
393. Fast and Furious 6 (2013): Dominique Toretto (Vin Diesel) and the gang are seemingly retired after a successful heist. However, Luke Hobbs recruits him to help capture a criminal, promising to eliminate their criminal records if they succeed.

They make a deal with a drug lord to steal 48 cars. When all but a 1973 Ford Mustang are in the bag, Pace steels it. What he doesn't know is that his boss has tipped off police. This leads to one of the best and longest high speed chases in movie history. It also results in plenty of car crashes worthy of watching. 
395. Furious 7 2015). Decker Shaw (Jason Stathom) seeks revenge on Dom (Vin Diesel).  The film stars the usual crew of Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Tyrese Gibson, along with Kurt Russell. The movie was very fast action, almost to the point of exaggeration. The movie was the highest grossing in the franchise, although this was probably due to the tribute to Walker, who had died during production of the movie. 
396. Ted 2 (2015):  John Bennett (Mark Wahlburg) and Ted (Seth MacFarlane) find a lawyer and go to court in order to fight for Ted's civil rights. Featuring Morgan Freeman, Tom Brady, Jay Leno, Liam Neeson and Patrick Stewart as the narrator.

The trail leads to a wealthy businessman who is a member of Quantam organization, who is plotting to seize Bolivia to take over the country's water supply. The movie has a really neat opera sequence. While the plot sounds good, it's kind of boring. Featuring Judy Dench as M. 
399. Octopussy (1983): Roger Moore once again plays 007 Agent James Bond. I love the airplane sequence at the beginning. It's also pretty cool when he releases the money in a chase sequence in India and says, "Easy come, easy go." Nice train sequence at the end of the movie as well. Other than that, many criticize this as one of the most pathetic Bond movies, especially as Bond dresses as a circus clown to save the day and escapes in a submarine disguised as a crocodile. The movie is the first Bond movie to feature Robert Brown as M. It also feature Desmond Llewellyn as M.  
400. Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983):
401. Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002): Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) is forbidden from having a relationship with his girlfriend, although he cannot resist doing so.

Featuring Christopher Lee as Count Dooku/ Darth Tyranus, Ian Mcdiarmid as Chancellor Palpatine/ Darth Sidius, and Samuel L. Jackson as Mace Windu. This is the most dramatic of all the Star Wars films. Directed by George Lucas.

He explained his actions by saying, "I always say the law was meant to be interpreted in a lenient manner." Bannon represents the progressive persona and how it wishes to disregard tradition in order to push forth their agenda. The movie shows that there are consequences to such actions and behaviors. 
404. The Last of the Mohicans (1992): Great historical war film with great action lines and a great ending. 
405. Armaggedon (1998): After discovering an asteroid the size of Texas is on it's way toward earth, a team of roughneck oil drillers (Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck, Billy Bob Thornton, Owen Wilson, Steve Buscemi) are recruited by the government to destroy it.

When David is killed by a werewolf, and David is bitten by and turned into one... the result is a good story with blood and boobs and whatever else guys yearn for in a movie.
418. American Psycho (2000):  Christian Bail plays an unemotional psychopath. If you remain confused by the ending, cinamablend.com attempts an explanation.  
419. The Verdict (1982):  (Paul Newman)  watched
420. Tootsie (1982): Dustin Hoffman
421. National Treasure (2004):

434. White Men Can't Jump (1992): Woody Harrelson
435. Die Another Day (2002): After killing a rogue North Korean colonel, James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) is held captive for 14 months. While I recommend all Bond movies on this list, the sequence where he is held captive is long and drawn out and quite boring, to say the least. This is, by far, my least favorite Bond movie. Still, if you're going to watch all the Bond flicks, you have to suffer through this one. 
436. Blade Runner (1982): It's a futuristic movie starring Harrison Ford, and was a flop at the box office only only to end up becoming a cult classic.  It's a bit overly dramatic for me, hence the low ranking. Still, many guys love it, and would rank it much higher.
437. Terminator Genisys (2015). John Conner (Jason Clarke) sends Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) back to 1984 to protect his mother, Sarah Conner (Emilia Clarke), from the Terminator. What he finds is a world in which a Terminator guardian (Arnold Schwarzenegger) has been protecting Sarah Conner for years, and has educated her already about what is going to happen.

439. Captain America: Civil War (2016): As the heroes chase after Chase "Bucky" Barnes/ a brainwashed Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan), civilian casualties occur.
