Die Hard
Led by breakout performances from Bruce Willis and Alan Rickman, Die Hard perfectly encapsulates the classic tropes of older action films while also playing forward into modern action films with its over-the-top explosions and stunts and sprinkling of dark comedy to push the whole thing to the next level.
Sweeney Todd: the Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Johnny Depp’s leading performance bolsters the film’s great adaptation of Sondheim’s music, and Burton’s artistic tendencies work wonders in bringing the musical to life on the screen, making Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street not only one of the best musical adaptations of all time but one of the Greatest Films of All Time as well.
