IMDb Top 250 List: My Journey to Review Every Movie from #1 to #250

by Nick Kush
IMDb Top 250

As an aspiring critic, I’m always looking to grow my pool of knowledge so that I can provide better reviews with improved insight for all my readers.  The next attempt for me to do so is to watch and review every single movie that is on the IMDb Top 250 list.  As this list begins to compile, the movies I have seen will have a Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score, Metacritic score, and MovieBabble score, similar to my top ten lists and rankings.  Eventually, each movie on this list will also have a link to a review on the site.

It’ll be a long journey, but I’m looking forward to what I may learn along the way.

List as of May 9th, 2017:

Are you going to keep updating this list? I’d like to see your grades for certain movies as I also go through the list. Great website!

I did a quick count, I haven’t seen around 70 of them, mostly cartoons, non-American and Lord of the Ring-ones. Oh, and Batman. Waiting for a good chance to see those, such as on a flight. With older films I’m often not sure whether I’ve seen them or not, but probably yes, Yugoslavia showed many great films on TV when I was growing up, all kinds, Western, Eastern and Swedish, so we profited. Just found your site, not a big fan of blockbusters but shall look around what you’ve got for me.

Smashing project you’ve set yourself – I’m envious. Definitely seen 146 of them although there are some titles I don’t recognise. But then I’ve been going to the movies for a very long time (and used to teach film too at one stage).

You’ve gotten me beat! I’m still in college so obviously I’m still building my movie knowledge. I have a long way to go but the journey will certainly be a fun one!

Awesome buddy… But IMDB’s Top 250 keeps changing often right?

Reply
MovieBabble May 11, 2017 - 10:22 am

Yes which is why I’m going with the list as of May 9th. Once I finish that I’ll see of there’s any new movies on the list that I haven’t seen!

Ha ha ha.. :D

I’ve watched most of the animation movies in this list, and the ghibli ones are definitelly my favorites out of all these movies because they’re so well-done and are all truly moving! I’ve watched quite a bit of these actually and not I’m feeling a little excited about watching the rest!!

Though I was surprised to see that some wonderful movies are missing from this list… oh well.

so many amazing films on this list! though where the hell is Dead Poets Society?! totally deserves a place on there

Reply
MovieBabble May 10, 2017 - 1:32 pm

There’s a lot of movies I thought of that should be on there. The original Avengers comes to mind as well as Moonlight

mymindspeaksaloud May 10, 2017 - 3:06 pm

ahh I haven’t actually seen either

Reply
MovieBabble May 10, 2017 - 6:08 pm

Ahh you need to! Add them to the list lol

I’ve seen all but four of the first one hundred. I’ve missed out on five of the next one hundred and five of the last fifty, so I have a good start. It’s enchanting to see these titles and remember the movies. It wouldn’t be my ranking, of course.

Hopefully I can catch up to you soon! I’ll get cracking!

37/250 but more than half of the list is still on my to-watch list) I am inspired with your challenge and I will try to watch those from the list first.
I haven’t checked IMDb Top 250 in a while, a lot of new and recent movies made it to the list)

MovieBabble May 10, 2017 - 1:30 pm

Thanks so much! I hadn’t taken a look in awhile either. It’s interesting to see what newer movies are already considered classics by many!

I have seen the first 26, not even heard of 27 so I will look it up. , and will come back to this later ;) hate to rush it

MovieBabble May 10, 2017 - 11:52 am

It’ll certainly take awhile! It’s hard to rush with so many movies to watch!
