What a bunch. Voting for Shakespeare but only because I have to - it's nothing but a solid film.

The best is Unforgiven, with Braveheart and Schindler's List close behind. On a given day, I might opt for Mel over Clint, but goddamn, those three are classics.
The worst is by far The English Patient.

It blows my mind how good this list is compared to the decade that preceded it, and the two that followed it. No matter how old and jaded I get there is not a bad film on this list, and for the first time picking three is hard, whereas with the previous two I was having to struggle to decide which one to leave out of my picks.

This is a much better run. 91-93 are all all timers (and I'm the biggest English Patient fan here too) and although stuff like Gump, Braveheart, and American Beauty aren't personal favorites I can certainly see why they are classics for a lot of people.
Dances With Wolves and Titanic are the only out and out duds here. Voted Titanic.

I really dislike Schindler’s List, but the worst has got to be American Beauty.

No matter how old and jaded I get there is not a bad film on this list, and for the first time picking three is hard, whereas with the previous two I was having to struggle to decide which one to leave out of my picks. Totally agree. I see the winners of the 80s and I want to kill myself.
Between movies that I haven't seen for a thousand years. None of them are among the favorites of my life.
It's more if I could vote for all of them as the worst would.
We really go back in the 80s to the point where it's going to be hard to pick just 3 bad movies.
While I understand that Forrest Gump, Bravehart and Shakespeare in Love are the worst Oscar-winning movies of the 90s (with the English Patient hot on its heels, but Juliette's boobs and Kristin's full frontals save the movie from going downhill) . The truth is that all the winners are technically flawless, and even if I were an Oscars voter I would probably never vote for any of them. There is a good mix of quality, with history and seeking to please the public.-
That it did not exist in the previous decades and neither during the 80s.
When I saw Dances with Wolves I really liked it. But I was a child, and I haven't seen her for more than 25 years, if I have time I should judge her to see how she aged and perhaps she seems more anachronistic to me than the stupidity that Mel Gibson did. Gibson an actor that I love how he directs, except for the films in which he is nominated for an Oscar for best director. I still slighty prefer Costner as director, despite the fact he directed very few movies and all political correct western. Mel Gibson has much better highlights, but also more lowlights, historically speaking Braveheart is the most anachronic film I've ever seen, not only but also 3 hours. From William Wallace couldnt descend the King of England. Because Princess Isabella was a child in France when he was executed.-
But the 80s movies, although at some point in my life I have seen them all, I hardly remember them. I'll have to see them again to choose the worst, and that's like a request from a Catholic king so that the Pope doesn't excommunicate him.
What an ordeal!!! May God catch us confessed.- |

Agreeing that this is a super strong string of winners. Shakespeare in Love remains the weakest in my opinion, so voted that.

The English Patient is the worst. Shakespeare in Love follows right on its heels and Titanic comes in third for worst of the decade.
The best is The Silence of the Lambs.
