Top 10 Highest Grossing Hollywood Movies of 2016

It is the beginning of a new year and I decided to put up this list of the top grossing/top selling movies of last year, 2016. The number one the list is well deserved, and is my very best movie of the year. It is also interesting to know that there are three animated movies on the list.






Please note that the numbers in bracket below represent the amount the movies made worldwide, and not domestic sales alone.



10.Suicide Squad (745 million worldwide)

9.  Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (778 million worldwide)

8.  Deadpool (783 million worldwide)

7.  Rogue One (838 million worldwide)

Top 10 Gangster Movies of All Time (IMDB Ranking)

I wanted to write this article based off of my personal opinion, but I thought that might be biased, given that I am a big Robert De Niro fan...I might just cramp the top 5 with mostly De Niro movies. So this is what I did...I went on IMDB.COM, and searched through the dozens of gangster movies that are rated on the website, and picked the top 10 gangster movies with the highest ratings. Please note that these ratings are based off of individual ratings done by thousands of IMDB users all over the world. Being one of the top 10 movie websites in the world, I thought this would be the closest representation of what the people consider the top 10 gangster movies of all time.








So, below is a list of the top ten gangster movies of all time, based on IMDB ratings.





10. Scarface (8.3)
This is one of my all time favorites, and I am sure many people's favorite as well. I still watch this over and over every chance I get, and I never get tired of it. Even though The Godfather was the movie that brought Al Pacino to limelight, this is the movie majority of casual movie watchers remember him for.

Set in the 80s, Tony Montana (Al Pacino) and his friend, Manny (Steven Bauer) travel to America from Cuba for a better life. After working tirelessly at a roadside diner, they decide they had to be more to the American dream than the life they were living. And they went searching for ways to make fast money, till they got into the drug business. A very ambitious Tony always wanted more, and with that attitude, he worked his way to the top. 






The movie also stars a young Michelle Pfieffer. It was written by Oliver Stone, and directed by Brian De Palma. It was released in 1983.
