Hello Angels! Happy Sunday! Today I come to you with something a little different. My top 20 All Time Favorite Movies. Only because I am a movie lover and I think I need everyone to know the most awesome movies in my eyes. Most people would do a top 10 but I could not for the life of me limit you all to only 10 movies. I would do a top 100 and still not be satisfied š.
My brain is 90% movie quotes.
1) Lawless. I mean come on you have Tom Hardy in this movie that should be enough for you ladies to want to see this movie. The main reason I love this film besides the fact it is an excellent movie is the background of it. It is a movie based on bootlegging and Bondurant brothers of Franklin County, Virginia. Its based on 3 brothers account and their troubles with the law. I have seen this movie over 20 times (no I am not exaggerating this is real life). My husband has even asked me if I was featured in the movie because seeing it as much as I have does not seem right unless it was my first feature in a film. None the less it is my all time favorite. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

2) Man on Fire. First thing I will say is that it is a Denzel Washington film. Ok that is all you need to know moving on to the next film. š Just kidding. This movie is amazing in all aspects of a film. It is based on an ex-cia bodyguard to a 9 year old in Mexico City which has been hit with a wave of kidnappings. the little girl is the daughter to a wealthy businessman. The little girl is kidnapped and Denzel Washington (Creasy his name in the film) has to save her. This movie will give you all the feels. The song at the end always brings tears to my eyes no matter how many times I see it. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

3) The Great Gatsby: First of all this has got to be my all time favorite book since I read it in High School. It was drawn to Jay Gatsby from the very beginning. I wanted to make my 30th Birthday a Gatsby Themed Party but I will probably do it for another birthday down the line. This movie/book is about Jay Gatsby who is a wealthy individual who has exclusive parties all the time. You have to see it and let me know what you think. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

4) Only the Strong: This movie is it!!!! It has a special place in my heart. I first saw this movie again in High School and I couldn't stop watching it. This is another movie that I have seen more times than I care to admit. It is based on an elite military member who goes back to his home town in florida only to see that his high school has been taken over by drug dealers and decides to step in. This movie is very humbling and I think everyone should watch it at least once. If you watch it more than once welcome to the club (a membership will be on its way to you from me š). If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

5) The Fast and the Furious: I mean come on how could FF not make it on this list. It actually hurt my soul to see I had to put it all the way down to number 5 but none the less it is in my top 5. This movie is about street racing, thugs and police all summed up in one. I have watched this movie and probably the series of the movies that have came from this a million times and I am proud to say that. The main characters in this movie are played by Paul Walker and Vin Diesel. R.I.P. Pauly you are dearly missed. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

6) The Departed: It was really tough not to put this movie in my top 5 because boy it is great! It is about a cop that goes undercover to infiltrate the mob. A mole in the organization throws the movie for a loop. This movie features A LOT of great actors; Leo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg among others. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

7) The Notebook: Again this was another movie that broke my heart not to put in the top 5. I think I literally have watched this movie at least once a week for about a year straight hahaha maybe not that much but close enough. This movie is based on a book written by number 1 writer ever, Nicholas Sparks. If you have not read the book or seen the movie (why...serioysly why are you still here and not watching it.... GO NOW!!!) you need to see it, if you have seen it you already know it was going to be on the list. The movie is about a couple who defy all odds to be together even as the world tries to separate them. This gives hope to anyone looking for love because no matter what what is yours will be yours and no one can stand in the way of that. Oh and how could I forget the main characters are played by Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams two of the most beautiful people on this earth. Talk about amazing chemistry in a film they got that. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

8) Gran Torino: Ok so I grew up absoltutely loving western films because my father loves old western and Clint Eastwood. So growing up watching this has become my favorite as well. Charles Bronson is one of the most favored actors in our house hold growing up along with Clint Eastwood. Gran Torino was amazing and it gave me a feel for a more modern version of Clint Eastwood I could see in a more modern film. This movie is about Clint being a war hero that lives in a Asian, Hispanic neighborhood that is infested with gang bangers. He stands up to the gangbangers and soon becomes a hero in his neighborhood.If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

9) Step Brothers: Oh man oh man! I had to throw a comedy in here and what more could beat step brothers. I don't think I even have to explain this movie if you haven't watched it just go and do it now and be prepared to laugh your hair off. You're welcome! If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

10) Four Brothers: This movie is amazing from start to finish. Not going to lie I cried during this movie and I have no problem admitting it because it was worth every tear. This movie is about four brothers who are in a foster home, their foster mother gets murdered and the brothers suspect this was no random killing. Now older and living their own lives they come together to track down what really happened. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

11) Heat: This is a must see hands down. This is your typical cop chasing criminal movie except with excellent acting and amazing actors. It is featuring AL Pacino and Robert De Niro I mean what more do I have to sell you on. This duo is dynamic. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

12) Scarface: It was really hard not making this movie number 1 because it was my number 1 growing up but I guess I have seen more movies in the last 15 years of my life and has made me re evaluate it but none the less it is in my top 20 because it is my all time favorite. I don't think I need to explain this movie except with one thing Al Pacino is a gangster and a badass. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

13) Life is Beautiful: This movie was another one that I was introduced to in High School and I fell in love with it. It is about a father and son that get stuck in a concentration camp. The father does his best to help his son believe that it is all a game so he can keep the truth behind what was happening during this tough time. It is a tear jerker but definitely a must see. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

14) Shooter: This movie is featuring Mark Wahlberg and it is about a ex Marine Sniper who leaves the military after a mission goes wrong. He is contracted out for another mission by a CIA agent to help protect the President of the United States. Everything goes wrong and he has to get himself out of trouble. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

15) Serpico: Is another great Al Pacino Movie that is based off a real story. He is a cop who does not take briberies. He tried to explain to hire his views of the corruption going on in the department this causes a lot of backfire and forms a target on his back. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

16) The Godfather: This has got to be on the top 10 of everyones list I mean this is what you call an all time classic. Just the list of A list Actors should be enough but if not lets just say the movie is about the Italian mob yep you already know its going to be epic so epic that there is more than one and all are just as good. This is another movie starting Al Pacino and Marlon Brandon. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

17) American Sniper: As you all know I am a Veteran of the US Army so of course I had to put a military movie on my top 20 because its part of me and who I am. There are amazing military movies but American Sniper feels more personal to me because I was in Texas when Chris Kyle died and I was present when they took the biggest Parade Deck in Fort Hood Texas (the military base I was stationed at) and dedicated it to him. So this movie felt more personal to me than any other. Bradley Cooper plays Kyle and he is one of my absolute favorite actors. If you have not seen it, you should ASAP. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

18) Varsity Blues: OK this movie is just one of those young movies with great actors that just makes you drool at the mouth with so much hotness in one screen. Its also a football movie and it features Paul Walker....guilty as charged. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

19) Mystic River: This movie is one of my favorites because it features great actor and the story line gets you all the way until the end. I have heard from a lot of people that have not seen this or don't understand my obsession with it but it is an awesome movie and I think everyone should give it a chance. An ex-cons daughter gets murdered and he believes two of his childhood friends must be involved it is a suspense and well worth the watch. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.

20) Takers: This movie is a thrill and a comedy all in once. Paul Walker is also in this movie but I think the person that makes this movie overall is T.I. his remarks and comedy side brings light to the movie and just wraps it all in one. It is a movie about bank robbers and a group of guys that are involved. If you are interested in purchasing this movie and see what I am talking about you can buy it here.
