It is interesting, but it's a remake of "The Wages of Fear."

Well, the top ten since I assume you've seen the famous classics, like 
Star Wars and Monty Python and the Holy Grail and The Rocky Horror Picture

Show and Chinatown and The Godfather and Close Encounters and 
Apocalypse Now and the like are:

The Ruling Class
The Conversation
Three Days of the Condor
The Outlaw Josey Wales
Network
The Last Waltz
Five Easy Pieces
The French Connection
Fiddler on the Roof
The Deer Hunter

Those are movies thast I think have been relegated to sort of second teir 
status. I did not includany SF because I figured you knew about those, saw

those already. Well, maybe Network.
