Either Big Lebowski or V for Vendetta
The Big Lebowski is one of the great comedies of all time: mistaken identity, absurdist kidnapping, iconic lines, great music, and phenomenal performances.
I can't imagine I actually need to pitch V for Vendetta to anyone here.

In the movie 1984 actor John Hurt played the main character (the rebel), and in V for Vendetta he played the authoritarian leader. It was really funny to see that.

What a coincidence, actually just watched Big Lebowski for the first time yesterday! It was quite different from the comedy movies I'm used to but in a good way! I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Apollo 13.
It sucks me in every time. The diligent preparation for the rocket launch. The chills I get from watching the rocket take off. And the restless nights logged by the engineers as they try to figure out how to bring the boys home. I love it.

Fight club for sure, i don't think particular explanation is needed in this crowd.

Matrix, the movie outlines a feeling that most of us have deep down, it brought that feeling to the surface, and made way for a lot of questioning, especially of government, state leaders, religions, systems etc. good movie and most likely true in a lot of ways. It also shows the people surviving in the chaos. witch I think is what we all hope for while current political
Events, politicians, thoughtless, votes, and the worlds over privileged make lawless decisions for there own selfish small brained wants and needs, that aim to deceive and harm the majority!!!! I for won hope we come out safe and unharmed, with new insight.

I'm a sci-fi guy so I'd be slacking to let Star Wars go unmentioned... But technically the best star wars movie was Rouge One.
Outside of Star Wars I have to give props to Moulin Rouge. That movie has everything; great music, people, performances, and a seriously funny script.

A Man for All Seasons
It has phenomenal writing and acting. The main character, Thomas More, does all that he can to help his country, but he is ultimately executed for not giving up his beliefs in the process. Despite being a tragedy, More's courage and cunning are deeply inspiring.
Here's a clip:

The Godfather, not because of the mafia. Great story of family, loyalty, self reliance, and not looking to the government to solve your problems. Full disclosure: I'm an old goombah.

Yeah, was looking for this. Great movie. The symbolism, the forshadowings, the metaphors, the symmetries. Just great filmmaking

Mulholland Drive. I’ve watched it repeatedly (including during its brief theatrical run) and it sucks me into its universe every time. David Lynch’s magnum opus.

Oh yeah, I recently dove through Lynch's filmography and this one in particular blew my mind. Made me go through Twin Peaks and the rest is history.
If you're a gamer, Disco Elysium is probably one of the closest experiences to Mulholland Drive you'll get.

my list but only movies you've never heard of:
How to get ahead in advertising. Really weird quirky movie, guy grows second head, makes you grossed out, laugh, odd movie.
Around the Campfire. Old hippie movie, will make you cry, remember old psychedelic stories from your life.
Dogtown and Z boys - really cool skate culture movie.
2010: The Year We Make Contact - Excellent but unkown sequel to 2001. It's got lots more psychedelic frontiers to explore just like the original
Sadly a bit of an anime nerd so the Overlord movies were fun to watch for me - Overpowered MC who's quasi evil
plus a milion i forget and regular classics like Conan. Oh and I love throwing on any old Stone Monkey movies from the old rock climber days. More modern heads might just want to watch Free Solo for gripping the edge of your seat thrills but I like old school Dean Potter almost dying for the camera movies more

Freddy Got Fingered, the movie is absurd but hilarious, not every scene works, movies have so much creative/artistic filtration before we actually get to watch them, I believe Tom Green was able to projectile vomit his creativity into this movie without the movie studio tainting it too much

It's Cloud Atlas. The only film I have seen twice in cinema.
Every time I finish watching I feel so inspired that I have to go back to computer and keep working.
And the end of the film is better than the book.
