I can’t even count how many times I’ve watched em. Definitely a classic that still has all the makingd of a great movie. I’m not a fan of the third but would recommend watching all three at least once.

I’ve never seen True Romance, but my cinephile friend wants me to watch that this week funnily enough.
I LOVE Good Will Hunting :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
And I only recently have seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I absolutely loved it.
My favorite Jim Carrey movie is probably The Truman Show.

But yeah top movies is a tough one because there are SO many and they shift and change with my moods.
