IMDb ranks the top movies of the last 25 years

That most wonderous movie resource the Internet Movie Database has just turned 25, so it's the perfect time to celebrate the best movies of the last quarter century with a definitive ranked list.

IMDb ranks the top movies of the last 25 years

With hundreds of millions of users who all have access to an easy rating system for the films they've seen, the IMDb is a really great way to get a snapshot of what films people actually enjoy and watch, rather than the ones which just earned good marks from critics. That's a pretty invaluable tool, and just one small part of what makes it such an amazing site.

The list of best movies is broken down handily by year, with the highest ranked title from that twelvemonth winning out. There are some filmmakers which have really made their mark, like Quentin Tarantino, Steven Spielberg, Peter Jackson and David Fincher but the more recent years seem to pretty much belong to Christopher Nolan.
