Shortlist's Greatest Films of the 1980s, Ranked

"The '80s was a pioneering decade for so much: music; technology; er, fashion. But '80s cinema was a true golden period - you only have to look at our best '80s movies to see this. Unfortunately not everyone agrees with this. After the groundbreaking cinema of the '70s, the '80s were often seen as a bit of a disappointment. Compared with the serious, gritty films of the previous decade, it's easy to see why. But then the '80s were about something else. While the blockbuster only really took shape in the late '70s, the '80s saw it in its prime, delivering hit after hit, commercially and critically." - shortlist.com
