    Tarantino's debut has all the trademarks - and impossible to ever hear 'Stuck in the Middle With You' again and not immediately think of this movie. So ramblers, let's get ramblin'...

    Powerful and evocative tale that's as relevant today as in 1998, with a truly astounding performance by Edward Norton

    Spielberg once again at the top of his game here. The first 10min Omaha Beach scene is a masterclass!

    "Choose Life." Danny Boyle's tale into the seedy heart of heroin addiction; comic, tragic and darkly haunting.

    Tarantino had arrived with his trademark cast of characters, narrative form, dialogue, sounds, violence... It's all here.

    One of the few times when an adaptation has been better than Stephen King's original tale. Almost the perfect movie.

    Which leaves us with just to reveal the number 1... And once again just wanted to say thanks to everyone for contributing to this. These rankings are entirely yours. In fact as much as I love every movie in this top 10, I stayed completely out of it so that it truly represents what all of you voted for collectively... Thank you all.

    But just a stall before the final reveal...
