Simon Says' Top 100 Films of all Time

Perhaps the most difficult thing for a film critic, above all else, is attempting to create a list of their favourite films. The issue is not ‘selecting’ your most cherished movies from those less-cherished, but more the headaches that come with attempting to compare animated to horror films to silent to last years films, and everything in between. Regardless, here it is. These 100 films are ever shifting but here are the best of Simon Says. Enjoy.
