What is the nearest example you've seen to a perfect movie?

Sorry Harmonica.......I got to stay here.
Of course there's tons and tons of others, but these are just a few that I think absolutely nail it (which is as close to "perfect" as I think you can get)

Die Hard
The Matrix
Back to the Future
The Straight Story
L.A. Confidential
Sleeper

Unbreakable. Every scene matters and even though the ending is painfully obvious on numerous viewings it just rips your head off the first time.

And still there are people who don't understand the concept of "nearest".

Braveheart is the perfect example of the perfect movie. The casting and writing were spectacular.

Donnie Darko, hands down.

Gangs of New York for its kind is perfect, even though I don't like so much blood.
Slumdog Millionaire
Ocean's 11 & 12
and Forrest Gump





Surprised nobody has mentioned this yet. Whilst it is not my favourite Hitchcock film in terms of enjoyment, I still think that it is his finest film and best in terms of filmmaking. Every shot is brilliant, so are the characters and themes explored.

The Godfather, in my view,is perfect.
Also Forrest Gump is a great movie,it could be called perfect because it's one of a few movies which has everything from comedy to war or politics.

I would say Shawshank Redemption is the closest to perfection.
This is the one I had in mind. It's cliche to say it is great but I dare anyone to say that it is not at least a decent to great movie.
