11. "Notting Hill" does it for me.

The cast, the story, the music - it is perfection.

And I hate freakin' happy movies!

[demmiblue]

14. A few more:

On a Clear Day
Blow Dry
Waking Ned Devine
Kinky Boots
The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill But Came Down a Mountain

[TexasBushwhacker]

7. The last movie I saw that I really super enjoyed was Hell or High Water

I made a point to see it in the theater because there are just not enough movies for grown ups. A movie with a great story and solid acting just makes my heart sing. That's a "feel good" movie to me.

I felt the same way about "Get Out". I just walked out THRILLED it was so good.

BTW, the guy who wrote and directed Hell or High Water has a new movie out called Wind River starring Jeremy Renner and Elizabeth Olsen.

[gratuitous]

8. The Sting

And another one with Paul Newman called "Nobody's Fool." Underrated little gem.

[WinkyDink]

9. I couldn't stop laughing during and after "The Full Monty"! Ditto "National Lampoon's European

Vacation"!

"Dirty Rotten Scoundrels".

Tyrone Power's "Zorro" and Errol Flynn's "Robin Hood".

"HOOSIERS"!!!

[Stuart G]

10. Holly Molly...my goodness gracious...............I forgot...."HOOSIERS"

a terrific movie that really fits the bill....Thank You Winky...I really appreciate you posting that..

Hoosiers is a wonderful film..for those who have not seen it, you will really enjoy it.

[JimGinPA]

12. Avatar & 50/50

Are the last couple of movies that moved me.

Avatar was the first movie I saw in 3D at an Imax & I liked just about everything about it. I bought a BluRay extended version with a bunch special features that made me enjoy it even more.

50/50 was just a great movie that was a roller coaster of humor & drama. Anyone who hasn't seen it should look for it.

[Cirque du So-What]

13. Thanks for the spoiler

You've just ruined Mr. Smith Goes to Washington for me. I've been waiting my entire life to watch that movie...and now I find out the good guys win? Ruined!

[rurallib]

15. This year's "The Big Sick" was a big boost for me in the time of Trump

Over the years-
"Young Frankenstein"
"M*A*S*H"
"Doubt"

[sakabatou]

16. Guardians of the Galaxy

[Beaverhausen]

17. Trading Places, Spinal Tap and Bull Durham

three of my faves

[yellowdogintexas]

18. Victor, Victoria definitely

also The Great Race
The Princess Bride
Goonies
Moonstruck

Two I have only seen on video: "Undercover Blues" with Kathleen Turner and Dennis Quaid (and an outrageous turn by Stanley Tucci who steals absolutely every scene he is in)
This movie is just a lot of fun. Moreover, because of this movie, Mr YD and I will watch anything with Stanley Tucci!!!

"The Grand Seduction" in which a small Canadian fishing town goes to great lengths and subterfuge to both convince a factory to locate there and a young doctor to stay there. See, they need the factory folks to believe they actually have a doctor.......

[sarge43]

19. A few of mine

Young Frankenstein
Singing in the Rain
Babe
The Martian
Galaxy Quest
The Lady Eve
Superman (1978)
S.O.B.
Star Trek: First Contact & Voyage Home
Beauty and the Beast (animated)
Hobson's Choice

[catbyte]

20. This probably says a lot about the level of sophistication I have, but...

Animal House
Caddyshack
Ghostbusters
National Lampoon's Vacation & European Vacation

But I did love The Hot Rock & The Sting when they first came out. I was in high school & they were so awesome. I still love it when the antiheroes stick it to The Man.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

21. Just watched "O Brother Where Art Thou?" again, during the middle of the hurricane.

Just an absolutely beautifully shot and wonderfully done movie with some terrific music.

Every time I watch it I suddenly remember how beautiful a movie it is.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

22. And while it might seem like a downer on the surface....

...The Shawshank Redemption has arguably the most satisfying, feel good ending of any movie I can remember off the top of my head.

It pays off very well in the end.
