A Breakdown of IMDB's Top 250 Part 1

I'm in quite the spiteful mood right now, as watching the pretentious barf fest known as the Oscars can do that to a guy.

Upon exploring the IMDB's famous 'Top 250' list, I'm quite flabbergasted and annoyed at many of the choices, as well as their positions on the chart. 

I'm not going to explore 226-250, and apply my opinion, if applicable.The last 25 are constantly fluctuating, so I'll skip them. Vedeicts are as follows: + is deserving, X isn't, ~ is no opinion.So, off we go!

225- Star Trek - Haven't seen it. The source material bores me to tears. ~

224- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2- The last entry in a series that was never anything impressive. X

223- Fistful of Dollars- Haven't seen it. Not a big fan of westerns. ~

222- Ratatouile- One of Pixar's weakest, honestly. An animated film has to be really special for inclusion on this list, and this one doesn't cut it for me. X

221- IP Man- Haven't seen it. ~

220- Monster's Inc. - Again, not Pixar's strongest. X

219- The Diving Bell and the Butterfly- Haven't seen it. ~

218- The Perks of Being a Wallflower- Haven't seen it. ~

217- In the Name of the Father- Haven't seen it. ~

216- Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl- Can't stand this movie anymore. Just a simple popcorn flick that manages to make pirates boring. X 

215- The Truman Show- Good Movie, not necessarily a top pick for me, but I'm fine with this. +

214- Roman Holiday- Need to see it. ~

213- District 9- A good solid sci fi flick, great FX and an interesting story. +

212- Memories of Murder- Haven't seen it. ~

211- Stalker- Want to See it. ~

210- Internal Affairs- Haven't seen it. ~

209- Barry Lyndon- A downright beautiful film. Anything Kubrick deserves a spot, if not higher. + 

208- The Man who Shot Liberty Valance- Haven't seen it. ~

207- Sleuth- Haven't watched. ~

206- Rope- Not the biggest Hitchcock fan, but I liked this one. +

205- Stalag 17- All I know is that my Dad didn't like it, it tried too hard to be funny. Probably X

204- The Exorcist- Hate it. Not creepy or scary at all, only incredibly cheesy and lame. A big fat X.

203- The Wild Bunch- I think I should give it another shot, but I didn't like it too much. X

202- Anatomy of a Murder- I need to see this one. ~

201- Rocky- I should see this one sometime. ~

200- The Manchurian Candidate- I should probably see it. ~

Next 25 to come soon.
