This is indeed a tough one. There are a lot of good movies, but I'll give it a shot!
1. Snatch (2000)
2. Falling Down (1993)
3. The Longest Day (1962)
4. Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
5. Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)

Films that always teach me something...
... new and different each and every (hunners an hunners) time I view them:
Northwest Passage
Jeremiah Johnson
Local Hero
The Wizard of Oz
I Know Where I'm Going (and every other Powell & Pressburger film)
then 6 to 10...
Highlander
Robin & Marian
Legends of the Fall
The Wind and the Lion
Gettysburg
Very difficult for me to narrow a list down to five. I find it curious that 3 of the last five are Sean Connery films.
PS... It would be remiss of me not to link Day-Lewis' Last of the Mohicans to Northwest Passage, and Glory with Gettysburg.
