Se7en. By the end of that movie I really understand Kevin Spacy's character, and that makes me physically ill.
The Lion King - I've said it before that the opening scene may be one of the most effective in any movie ever. Reprising it in the closing scene was genius. (Tearing up thinking about it.) The last scene in Mosnter's Inc. and the penultimate one in Mulan are the same kind of thing.
LOTR. The books were such a gigantic part of my growing up that I weep to see what a good job they have done with the <i>previews</i>, not to metion the movies themselves.
Gladiator. That one hits all the buttons.
The first Star Wars.
