Hardcore movie fans are a demanding bunch. The performances must be jaw-dropping, the cinematography groundbreaking, and all the other tiny little pieces that make up a production perfectly in place before everyone will agree it was okay. Sometimes, though, it just all works out. You watch a movie, and try as you might, you can’t find a single thing wrong with it.
It doesn’t happen often, so when it does, you remember. When u/rocklou asked their fellow Redditors to name movies that are absolutely perfect, they looked back fondly on their most flawless moviegoing experiences — from vintage classics to Pixar productions and all the Oscar-sweepers in-between.
