The 50 greatest movies of all time, according to… everyone
The ultimate list. Science says so.
Best movies lists come and go – but which is truly right? What literally is the BEST FILM EVER? We decided to work it out using statistics.
We assembled lists complied by IMDB (based on viewer ratings), Rotten Tomatoes (based on aggregated critics' reviews), The BFI (based on critics' votes), Empire (voted for by readers, critics and celebs) and The Hollywood Reporter (voted for by studio execs, producers and Hollywood main players). We then allocated each movie a score out of a 100 depending on where it was ranked in the list (100 points for number 1 etc) and added up the collective scores to produce our own amalgamated super-list.
Here they are then, the 50 greatest movies of all time, as defined by everyone.
