Clerks, because when I was 22 years before I ever saw that movie I to ran my convince store just like that. Also totally relate to the crap customers you deal with in that setting.

Hard to pick just one, and it changes from time to time. For this specific post, Iโll choose Sicario.
Lilo and Stitch!
Frozen II
E.T.
I am absolutely charmed by the characters, the story, the optimism, and the connection to the unknown.
I'm a fan of most of the movies listed, but didn't notice anyone mention one of my favorites, Moneyball. Don't let the baseball fool you. I don't even like baseball. To me it's not about baseball, it's about trying to succeed in a flawed system.
V for vendetta
It's a tie between The Motorcycle Diaries and Howl's Moving Castle.
The first I found extremely touching, the second is just incredibly magical and charming.
My most watched movies:
Jurassic Park
The Firm
The Verdict
Children of Men
Arrival
Lord of the Rings
But you know all of those already. Here's one you probably haven't seen: Love me some stage play adapted to movie. Doubt (2008)

Matrix
Lots of great picks here! I could go with a dozen that have already been mentioned, but I will throw out Blade Runner. The look, the feel, the sound, the ideas... Rutger Hauer's classic monologue, Sean Young at peak compelling...
Die Hard
By a pretty huge margin.
That. Movie. Is. Perfect.
