Greatest Movies: Your Quick Guide to Must‑Watch Films

Ever wonder which movies truly stand the test of time? Whether you love Bollywood drama, Hollywood blockbusters, or off‑beat indie flicks, the "greatest" tag helps you cut through the noise. Below you’ll find straight‑forward picks, short why‑it‑matters blurbs, and handy tips to add these titles to your watchlist without any fuss.

How We Spot a Greatest Film

First off, greatness isn’t just about big budgets or star‑studded casts. It’s a mix of lasting impact, strong storytelling, and the ability to spark conversation. We look at box‑office numbers, critical scores, fan love, and cultural influence. If a film shows up on multiple "best of" lists and still feels fresh after a few re‑watches, it earns a spot.

Top Picks Across Genres

Bollywood: Sholay keeps winning hearts with its iconic characters and quotable lines. Gully Boy captured the pulse of modern India, while Baahubali 2 proved epic storytelling can thrive on home soil.

Hollywood: Hard‑hitting classics like The Godfather still teach new filmmakers about power plays. Sci‑fi lovers can’t miss District 9 – a gritty take on alien integration that feels fresh today. For laughs, Superbad remains a go‑to teen comedy.

Indie & World: If you crave mind‑benders, Coherence and Timecrimes deliver twists without Hollywood polish. Moon packs a solitary performance that feels intimate and huge at the same time.

Each of these films shows up on our "greatest" tag because they’ve earned fan loyalty, critical love, or a spot in pop culture history. Pick a genre you like and start with the titles above – you’ll quickly see why they’re called great.
