The Mummy is a classic.

I wish they made movies like that today.

It's long even in the theatrical version (3+ hrs), but really is masterfully done. I loved LOTR, but I was a fan of the books beforehand.

I had an opportunity to watch the trilogy with several people who absolutely were NOT into the fantasy genre, and they all loved it. Usually, someone will laugh at the fantasy elements, but it never happened with these films. They were all riveted by how intense it was. The Nazgul scenes, the Moria/Balrog scenes, etc.

I read this thread just to see if anyone mentioned Ben Hur

I know how dated it is, but the story, the setting, and men died putting it on film

Saving Private Ryan we should all agree

A third one too difficult to narrow down, but I’m partial to Casablanca

Someone beat me to a few.

I agree on artistic films for someone who is new to theater is not a good idea. Specifically kids. As mentioned in OP

Heck my wife was not a fan of the princess bride due to watching it the 1st time while in the hospital. She now loves it.
