Good call on Bueller - qaulity film!
Mine would be Shawshank Redemption
Great film!

Shawshank, Green Mile and Aliens joint top!
All good choices. I would say Platoon is right up there for me - great film.

What about Gumball Rally - not the Gumball 3000 documentaries, i mean the original film that rocks and a very pretty t-bucket in it towards the
end.

Also;

Vanishing point, both versions, but original is slightly better.
Cannonball 1 and 2

And of course Bullit!
Other memorable car films include "Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry" and "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot".
What about the slightly rarer Cannonball 3 - Speedzone?? I got a copy from Holland, worth a watch but not a patch on the originals.
No way! Not Blues Brothers 2!! That blew chunks!!!
1) Raiders of the Lost Ark
2) Le Mans (just for the soundtrack)
3) Blues Brothers 1
4) When Harry Met Sally
