Christopher Nolan's visually stunning 2014 sci-fi epic sees a team of astronauts blasting off into deep space in a desperate bid to ensure the survival of the human race. Unsurprisingly, Matthew McConaughey steals the show as former NASA pilot Cooper, and his intense ugly crying scene has even been immortalised as a meme.

Director Michel Gondry is famous for his dream-like films and this one doesn't disappoint. Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet play a former couple who have both undergone a procedure to erase each other from their minds, before a chance meeting rekindles their initial attraction. Bagging a couple of Oscars along the way, the film has become a cult classic.

This 1979 masterpiece from Francis Ford Coppola borrows the plot of Joseph Conrad's book Heart of Darkness, setting it during the Vietnam War, with the addition of Marlon Brando in an unforgettable turn as the rogue Colonel Kurtz. Not only is it the best 'Nam film by far - with the best soundtrack - it's one of the greatest films ever made.

From the maker of the outstanding Senna - which chronicles the tragic death of the Brazilian racing driver - this heartbreaking documentary tells the tale of Amy Winehouse's rise and fall. The ridiculously talented singer-songwriter was found dead from alcohol poisoning in 2011, joining the infamous '27 Club' alongside Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison.

The excellent Riz Ahmed stars in this razor-sharp satire about four comically incompetent jihadists planning a suicide attack. The setting is sometimes uncomfortable, and the humour is about as dark as it's possible to get but the directorial debut from Brass Eye genius Chris Morris is absolutely pitch perfect and still sadly topical.

Everyone knows the scene where Robert De Niro plays Russian roulette in a Vietnamese prisoner of war camp but there's so much more to this epic drama about three Pennsylvanian steel workers and how their service in 'Nam affects their lives back home. At 2.5 hours long, it's not an easy watch but it's well worth your time.
