A lot of this seems to be determined by what genre people consider a film rather than the quality of a film. I'm sure Vertigo is going to end up being one of the best movies on the list according to most people, but it didn't get more votes because a lot of people probably don't think of it as a "crime" film. Definitely. Didn't vote for The Sting and On the Waterfront as well, despite I like them overall better than some others on my list.

4....with 294 points from 18 votersWhat am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone. HEAT (1995) Not just a no-brainer for this list but insanely influential - so many movies take something from it, American Gangster, The Dark Knight and a lot more because it looked like an instant classic in '95..........

3....with 377 points from 19 votersIf anything in this life is certain, if history has taught us anything, it is that you can kill anyone. THE GODFATHER: PART II (1974) Overrated. Too long - 3 and 1/2 hours? No strong female characters? A zombie lead where the supporting actors are more exciting? Nah, just kidding

Yanno you can ague with some picks but I think we can all agree that this was a nice break from the Little Women and Bombshell talk.  Well done Viced! - this poll actually energized me and made me puff my chest out.

A lot of whack-ass results in this, but a damn fine presentation nonetheless. And hey, I got to see Drive make the Top 15, when I had doubts it'd even grace the list at all. Well done, Viced, old boy.

Like every list it has it ups and downs, but this is overall a very, very good one. Cause while some films are too high (Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, Fargo, Silence of Lambs) and some too low (Untouchables, L.A. Confidential) there is hardly a film on this list I dislike (maybe with the exception of City of God and Jackie Brown, which are borderline). Thanks to Viced and his effort to do this list!
