10 Movies With the Best Voice-Overs and Narrations, Ranked by Whatnerd

"Building off our ancient oral storytelling tradition—a tradition that precedes even the written word—the voice-over has long been a cinematic device to express what's going on within a character's mind. But as with all cinematic devices, it's done poorly more often than not. Bland narration, misfit voices, and uninspired lines can be off-putting at best, but when it's really bad, it can make you want to stop watching. Of course, there's also the flip side: some movies have done voiceover narration to great effect, with several voice-over examples that are so good that they've gone on to become iconic, legendary, and unforgettable. Here are my picks for the best voice-overs in movie history and why they work when so many else have failed." - whatnerd.com
