Squids these days...
Network (1976). Quite possibly the best movie ever made.

Grave of the fireflies.
Definitely watch it.
Definitely donโt rewatch it. Once is enough for a lifetime.
Saw it, thought it was a great movie, and like you will never watch it again
Saving Private Ryan
โEarn it.โ
What a movie.
Green Street hooligans
Escape From L.A. 1996 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o6SWofbYD90&pp=ygURRXNjYXBlIEZyb20gTC5BLi4%3D No Escape 1994 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dCeAks---3A&pp=ygUOTm8gRXNjYXBlIDE5OTQ%3D
my personal favorite is Kiki's Delivery Service, as it's a film that doesn't have common Disney/Western tropes of trauma or horrible things happening. the main character has a loving family, she is strong willed, sticks to her convictions and is honest/empathetic/kind. there's action and conflict in a non violent way and the characters are sane. while I don't have kids, it's also appropriate for children and has lessons that are valuable for all ages.
the animation is beautiful to boot and the story is fun. I honestly think it's an example of a perfect film.

Fish Story. Weird movie about an obscure punk song that saves the world.
Glad you put a link. For some reason my brain thought of the film "shark tale" and I was like "hol up.."
Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, World's End.
For me - Hot Fuzz particularly. We periodically watch it with friends and play a drinking game (e.g. drink every time someone says "The Greater Good", every time you see a swan, every time the do an action thing that Nick Frost has earlier asked "did you ever...").
Aliens: Special Edition

For comedies โRat Raceโ and โWhite chicksโ always make me laugh.
i've only seen reservoir dogs once but i feel like i need to rewatch it just to gain greater understanding of the whole situation. those are my favourite type of rewatch experiences.
Well, I never refuse watching Pitch Perfect and The Dictator (by Sasha Baron Cohen). I'm sorry to lower the standard ๐
Don't be sorry. Love what you love.
A Bronx Tale
A father becomes worried when a local gangster befriends his son in the Bronx in the 1960s. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106489/
Any that you enjoy the first time.
Many Studio Ghibli movies, Fight Club, Tropic Thunder. Used to watch the first and second Godfather movies but good lord they're long.
