When you say you haven’t seen certain film people always react in different ways and even though I have been doing the challenge with Movie Rob there are still a surprising amount of films that I haven’t seen. Today I am going to pick just a few that I haven’t seen, I won’t be giving reasons why I haven’t seen them and I do plan on changing this in the future.
5. One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
4. Full Metal Jacket
3. Taxi Driver
2. Goodfellas
1. Top Gun
*high five* Haven’t seen any of these either! 😉
4 of the just don’t seem to be something i would like, Top Gun just keeps getting away from me too.
These aren’t that shocking, but I totally understand that stigma. The way I look at it you have some amazing movies to watch. I wish I could watch some of those again for the first time 😉 Taxi Driver would my vote. It’s a hard one to advertize or hype up, story wise; however, it’s well worth the watch. I’d love to read your review.
You can live forever without seeing Top Gun. FMJ was filmed partly in London, with imported palm trees! The first half in the training camp is first-rate though. Goodfellas and Taxi Driver really are must-sees. Cuckoo’s Nest is an acquired taste, and probably works better on stage.
It doesn’t get much better than Goodfellas, as far as modern American film-making goes. It really doesn’t.

I’d recommend the first four. Incredible films. Not seen Top Gun mind.
[…] I got this (exact) idea from my friend Darren who today released a post of five classic movies he’s not yet watched. You can read his excellent post here. […]
I’ve seen 4 out of 5. You’re really not missing much but not seeing them. Especially Top Gun. Even as a kid in the 80’s when it came out I realize it was utter crap.
These are all films that people always seem to say i should have watched
Of this list, I’d say watch One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest first
I am planning to put that in my Jack Nicholson weekend next year
I’ve never seen Full Metal Jacket or Top Gun (properly) either!
🙂
it is funny there 2 are on different reason why i havent seen them, Full Metal isn’t one i want to really see but Top GUn is one that just avoids me
