von rayns express
the great escape
battle for Britain

of other genres
12 angry men

1. 12 Angry men

There are more but since it asks for only 10.. I could think of these as firsts among the best I have seen..

I could not imagine before that a movie mostly shot in a single room could blow me over!

Hated Enemy at the gates....read the book years before the movie came out....they took one tiny section and basterdized it. (the book can be a dry read...covers from when the 6th Army rolled up to Stalingrad to the bitter end)

Saving Private Ryan, Chaos, The Kite runner (For the story, not for acting.), Black Hawk Down, The Mechanic, The Dark Knight (Mainly the Joker, Late Sir Heath Ledger), Once upon a time in Mexico, Ghost, Rambo Series and many more.

One of the acute portrayal of Japanese soldiers and their mind set.
