‘Rambo’ Laugh, if you want, but that flick made me realize how awfully governments treat Veterans. Non-Military guy here. Saw it in the nineties, must have been 11 or 12 or something like that.

Then ‘Philadelphia’ was pretty intense and made me realize reality holds more truths, than the narrow minded household I grew up in.

‘Milk’ was pretty eye opening, too.

Seems like a lot of responses think a movie needs a twist to be thought provoking. Not saying they’re wrong, but what about things that make you think about how screwed we are like “The Big Short” or “The Laundromat?” Movies like “Schindler’s List” make you think about human capacity for evil and compassion. “Blade Runner” brings up questions of what makes you a human.

Make no mistake, all the “twist” movies mentioned so far are great. Just trying to introduce another thread to the discussion.

It became a meme by now but Sixth Sense when it came out and Identity.
