Some great one mentioned so far...Rocky, Shawshank, Die Hard, and Princess Bride are among my favorites.

After watching it recently, one that really stands out, IMO, is Pan's Labyrinth. I couldn't watch that movie every day and it isn't one of my favorites, but damn near everything was amazing about the movie.
The scenery, music, story, acting, etc., were all perfect, IMO.
This is one of the films that jump out at me as a perfect film.

A lot more classics I'm forgetting off the top of my head. I'm not shy saying a movie is 10/10. I can have a perfect comedy, western, drama, foreign, ect. Maybe ten or so of each. Not like the OT with women, where no one is above a 7.5. I think there are thousands of women out there are 10's. There a ton of dimes on this planet.

Raiders of the Lost Ark is hard to argue with.
So is The Last Crusade. One of my favorites.

I'm with you on a lot of those, as you could probably see looking at my list too. I'd definitely add Pans Labyrinth to my list. I actually saw that in the theatre, I read up on it before it came out and saw it as soon as it came out. I might be wrong but I don't think it did very well at the box office, it was only at the one by my house for like a week. It kind of got the shaft at the oscars too. Didn't even win best foreign film that year. I honestly think Ivana, I can't remember her full name, Ivana something, was the best child actor performance of all time. She wasn't nominated for anything.
The only ones I'd probably disagree with on your list are Lost in Translation, A Clockwork Orange, The Big Lebowski, The Princess Bride, Young Frankenstein and The Royal Tennenbaums.

I'm all ears if you can find a flaw in any of those. I've tried, but I can't. They were just perfectly made and have no productional or logical flaws in my opinion.

There are lots of "perfect movies" that come about as close as you can to being exactly what they were intended to be.
I find it pretty near impossible to compare things from different genres like say "Hoop Dreams" vs "Trading Places" vs "Terminator 2" vs "The Godfather"
In general which of those you say is a better movie says more about your preconceptions of what a great movie is supposed to be than which of those is really better

Hoop Dreams is so perfect because it's imperfect like life.
It's one of those great docs where the filmmakers stay behind the camera and just let it tell the story.
Hearing all the footage they had, the editing is great in cutting it down and creating drama.
