Goddamn it, even after accounting for the few I haven't seen, this choice wasn't made easy. Why did I punish myself into thinking I could pick just five. I'd rather rank them in order. Or not. It would still be hard, but... gah.. I even had to knock off a childhood favorite: E.T.
Anyhow, in no particular order...
Saving Private Ryan (1998)
Amistad (1997)
Schindler's List (1993)
Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) - in all fairness, I know a lot of people didn't like the two subsequent sequels, but they're actually pretty good, IMO, and worth a re-watch before the next Indy comes out.
Jaws (1975)
