I'm going with Grumpy Old Men (and the sequal Grumpier Old Men). These are up there as my two of my favorite movies of all time. A lot of my friends have never seen them (or even heard of them) and refuse to because they're from the early 90's...because movies from those time periods just aren't as funny, or something.

I could watch these on a loop all day and laugh at the same parts.

What say you, CF?

I have two:

Layer Cake and Lucky Number Slevin. Both great movies.

I liked several scenes in that movie but the overall running time was way too long.

The ideal way to watch Walk Hard is catching it 45 minutes in on FX on a Saturday afternoon after you've slept in until 11:30 and are too lazy to change the channel. I mean that as a compliment.

Miller's Crossing - One of the finest examples of a gangster movie that's ever been made, yet it is rarely mentioned in the company of films like the Godfather, Goodfellas, The Untouchables, etc. It definitely belongs with them, though. Spot on acting. Great dialogue. Lots of action.

The scene where Albert Finney turns the tables on his would be assassins is just flat out awesome.

Great one! I would also add the Coen's 'Blood Simple'. Their first movie and quite possibly my favorite of theirs.
