Titanic

In April 1912, the largest and most luxurious passenger ship in history set sail on its first ever voyage from Southampton to New York - only to hit an iceberg just four days later and sink in the frozen waters of the Atlantic. This tragic story is at the centre of Titanic (the name of the ship itself) - and the movie is almost as huge and awe-inspiring as its subject, focusing on an illicit on-board romance between poor stowaway Jack Dawson and the wealthy Rose DeWitt (played by Leonardo Di Caprio and Kate Winslet).

Grease

‘Grease’ is the story of bad boy Danny Zuko and new girl Sandy Dumbrowski. These two iconic characters meet on a beach in 1950’s, having the time of their lives and falling in love. Danny is a cool and slick player, holding a position as leader of the ‘T-Birds’, whilst Sandy is a member of the Pink Ladies.

This is a compelling story made more appealing by great characters and a wonderful romance.

Grease is also appealing for all its great songs

Ace Ventura Pet Detective

‘Here's a title that tells you most of what you need to know. Jim Carrey - sporting sculpted quiff and a series of lurid Hawaiian shirts - plays the animal investigator called in when the Miami's American Football team lose their mascot dolphin. The plot, and everything else in the film, exists mainly so that Carrey can stretch his rubbery face to the very limits and do as many silly voices as possible. It's a smartly dumb comedy that is every bit as daft as it needs to be to stay consistently funny.
