i'm not going to say it's my favorite film or the "best" film ever, but i'm going with Barry Lyndon
if we're talking about pure execution of filmaking, that's going to be very tough to beat
it's probably the apex of the technical aspect of film photography. from the lighting to the cinematography to the locations and costumes...it's essentially unbeatable. the acting is great, the story is good, and the music is everlasting

When you have Kubrick just showing off what he can do - including both his experience at that point combined with an unnerving technical mastery of the science of filming - the film is an impressive accomplishment if one only considers the technical aspects of it. I'm just not crazy about the film as a film.

Barry Lyndon is really underrated, even by Kubrick fans like me. It is a technical masterpiece and had me completely engulfed in the story when I first saw it. I've always preferred 2001 but maybe that's because I've seen it more, including on the big screen.
I'd also call Back to the Future, The Two Towers, and maybe Pulp Fiction perfect.
