Taken always makes me cry and cry happy tears in the end
How do billboards talk?
Sign Language
@@Funny.Man101 still won't be funny
Sigmas can cry . It just takes us more than most
@@Reaperguy67 Taken always makes me cry and cry happy tears in the end
When John Coffeey said “don’t put that thing over my face, I’m afraid of the dark”, I absolutely lost it. RIP Michael Clarke Duncan 🙏
That movie was a true test of emotion. Any man who can watch that movie without crying is soulless
I sob every time I see that movie right at that part. When he starts singing “I’m in heaven “ that’s it I’m in a puddle!😭
I'm with you on that one😭😭😭
I'm soulless then
@@tonyacosta4574hey everyone look...this guy is a badass...he is so cool.
Robin Williams 3x on this list shows part of how amazing he was.
should also mention jack
And Fisher King could also have been in this list.
For me it was Hook. My wife and I didn't start having kids until our 30s. The scene when Peter discovers his happy thought and why it was he left Neverland hit me every time.
Now I have my Happy Thoughts.
With Robin, you were either Laughing your ass off or crying your heart out.
Thank you boys. 😭
There’s a reason Robin is all over this list. And I’ll give you another one. In 1991, Robin portrayed a grown up Peter Pan who had forgotten who he was. He was old and bitter and tired and frustrated with life. The Lost Boys refuse to believe that this is actually Peter Pan. But one little boy, the youngest in the group, goes up to him and starts pressing his face and looking closely at it. He pushes the cheeks back finally to show a smile. And then he says …. “Oh … there you are Peter.” You can find the clip on UA-cam by searching that line. I literally started bawling my eyes out. The metaphor with the scene is obvious. And all of us adults can feel it.
Not enough words to express how much I miss Robin.
I loved Hook.
When the guy gets shot stealing Second Base is one of the best baseball scenes ever.
@@nonenone7761 ~ lol I had totally forgotten about that scene! 😂
Hook will always be my #1 favorite movie
Oh gawds, what a scene...
Okay, so I'm DELIGHTED that someone else in the universe organically mentioned this scene... *ahem* please excuse my shouting: THIS SCENE IS SO PEFECT IT HURTS. IT IS ACHINGLY ATMOSPHERIC WITH THE BEST MUSIC AND A SMOTHERING FEELING OF MISPLACED HOPE. EVEN THE DUSTYNESS AND GRIT OF THE SET CONTRIBUTE TO THAT FEELING OF ANTIQUITY AND MISPLACED (LOST) THINGS OF AN OLD ATTIC. WHEN THAT FLUTE SOLO STARTS I FEEL ALL THE FEELINGS. In all honesty I classically struggle with people, and most movies growing up I identified with the robot, or the alien in lieu of a robot. But something about that scene made me feel connected. In middle and high school, as a boy, I caught a lot of flack for choosing to play the flute. And I went on playing for 4 years. I never learned that song, was never really any good. But I would have done much crazier things to try to bring that feeling back daily.
In "The Last Samurai" that one line - "I will miss our conversations". When my dad was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer and I had no idea how long he had left, that's the last text message I ever sent him. I'm grateful he's still around, but that line means the world to me.
That’s deep man. I lost my mom in 2016 to cancer…I found an email from her a year to the day she died from Houston telling me she loved me and was having fun. That was divine intervention.
I'm surprised that Marley and Me didn't make it to the list.
My thoughts exactly
That movie tore me up. I was hoping no one came in the living room to see me crying like a baby.
Any movie involving man's best friend turns me into a messy puddle of tears by the end.
I refuse to watch that movie.
Goodbye discount puppy 😢😭
Patriot with Mel Gibson. There's a scene where Mel has to leave his family and go to war. His daughter, Susan, does not speak. As he is riding away, Susan yells to him "Papa, Papa". It's at that point I lose it.
Hi, I’m here to revoke your man card.
Oh, that was a really shot to the heart. Although we knew he had to go, a part of us wanted him to stay.
That part gets me every time. Another that brings a tear to my eye is where the one guy tells the black man his time is up why is he still here, and he replies " I'm here on my own accords" to where the white guys say back to him, " it's an honor to have you with us, an honor" after degrading him the entire movie
@@andrewleah1983 You wouldn't know what one looks like.
Gets me every time..,.😢
In Logan, when Laura calls him "Daddy", I lost it in the theater
i just had my daughter when logan came out. that scene had me drowning in tears.
Also when Prof X gets killed, and THEN Logan tries to avenge him and his body just can't get it done.
Please tell me you keep tissues in your purse
Best X-Men movie and probably the best Marvel movie ever made.
@@jeremyward81This is why men have a hard time showing emotion or crying. Because people like you try to make them feel bad for showing emotion and feeling something.
The ‘green mile’ to me is the hardest ending and impossible for me not to have tears engulfing my eyes
When i stand before god, what am i supposed to tell him? That i was doing my job?
Absolutely!
I’m afraid of the dark 😭
The Green mile is the only film I watch on my own and need tissues.
Anyone who doesn't cry at the end of this movie doesn't have a heart
The one movie they missed and made me cry the most, John Q. Any father should feel the same.
Yes! That movie wrecked me before I had kids. Now that I’m a father of 4, forget it.
Word
Yes definitely a good one
Whole heartily agree. There isn't a thing I wouldn't do for my daughter and I would gladly give my own life knowing that I saved her.
Broo I cry EVERY TIME. When I'm feeling too cold like a serial killer I watch John q to reset myself.
Man Of Steel....
Clark: "Can't I just keep pretending I'm your son?"
Jonathan Kent: "You ARE my son."
The tremble in Kevin Costner's voice when he says that 😢
The ending of Terminator 2 👍
" I know now why you cry but it is something I could never do. "
The ending of Terminator 3
Came here just to say the same thing.
I always cry at the end of Mr. Holland's Opus. When his old students come back and play the symphony he spent his entire life writing for the first time for his forced retirement ceremony gets me every time.
Amazing scene
Gents, we may say "that bit made me cry" when what we MEAN is "that bit LET me cry"
I lost my gran in 1991 and didn't shed a tear for months even though I love and miss her, it took "I know now why you cry, but it's something I can never do" to break the seal.
Men process emotions differently to women but they are no less valid for it. I see you my brothers.
I'll always have a hug
Keeping it in like that can be harmful to your psyche.
I taught myself how to grieve when my mother died.
I almost got kicked out of the hospital, but I let it go.
Some years later, one of my nieces died and I screamed,
Over and over.
Two years ago, one of my nephews died and I let myself
grieve loudly.
In a weird way, it helps. For me, at least.
Thank you man.
true words man i understand what your saying. My mother is currently sick with cancer and i may not have a few years left with her if iam lucky, it terrifies me but ive just been ignoring all the emotions it makes me feel. i dont know if this is just how i deal with this kind of pain or if iam just a cold person for not showing anything. ive never lost anyone but my childhood dogs so i have no experience with this. its just so scary that i cant think about it for long. Some of my family acts i dont care but in reality i just dont want anyone to see me so weak. iam afraid what will happen if i let myself feel it. i fucking hate human emotions. i just wish i could just turn my feelings off and not care, as terrible as it is to say that. iam glad you posted this it made me feel like i need to rethink the way ive been going about this. ✌
@@magnificentfailure2390 Yeah, that's true, man. After I lost my youngest nephew - eleven years ago now - Dad and I were talking. He said to me then, "Everybody grieves in different ways. Some people laugh out loud when they get a horrible shock, others retreat into morbid silence." And I said to him, "There's no hard and fast rule that suits everybody, and if somebody tried to tell me there was one, I'd tell them to stick it up their arse." Completely freaking out was the only way I could deal with it I could deal with it at the time, and none of the men I worked with at the time held it against me.
Me too, man. Heaven knows I've had more than my share of grief and loss over the years.
The "I could have saved more" from Schindler's List, always seems like a punch in the feels for me
I’m surprised Braveheart didn’t make the list and Glory always makes me cry.
Only 2 movies for me and im a movie buff! Braveheart and intersteller indeed! Where is braveheart!
Glory was absolutely devastating. The very end of the movie had me gasping for air trying to hold in a cry😢
@@CP-3333 gut wrenching, I literally broke out into the ugly cry.
As an old guy, appreciate the shout-out to Old Yeller!
The saddest dog movie ever.
Any man that didn't cry at the end of Ol Yeller hasn't seen it.
I was never the same after that movie.... I am a woman however❤
Great list, BUT I really cannot believe you left "The Notebook" off?!?! When Ally finally recognizes Noah the waterworks always start... And wont stop until they drift away together with the "Power of their love". Such an amazingly written story.
It's a (flawed) list about movies that make men cry, not women.
Man on fire with Denzel
Yup
💯💯💯
When he finally rescues Pita and "Una Palabra" starts playing, I lose it every time
no FIRST BLOOD? are you kidding me? many hardened war vets have confessed they couldn't watch sly's monologue at the end coz it hit too close to home. they would weep, literally shake during the scene. and the emotion brought out would extend to the family members of those vets, moreso the sons. a powerful ending that opened, and continues to open the eyes of people on the reality of PTSD and the horrors of war. even president reagan referred to rambo in the 80s in one of his speeches about vietnam. easily top 5 for this topic. "nothing is over! you don't just turn it off!"
also possibly top 10 on this list should be braveheart.
Yeah, that was a missed opportunity boarding close to a criminal oversight.
The Elephant Man always brings a tear to my eye especially the scene when John says he's must have been a disappointment to his mother 😢
Merrick's choice to die, happily and at peace, by suicide as "Adagio for Strings" plays ... devastatingly sad. Most of the film is like that -- heartbreaking. My parents took me to see that at age 7 or 8. (Can't recall exactly, back then films would play in theaters for well more than a year if popular.) It near ruined me, emotionally. They later admitted they didn't know what they were taking me to. My mom thought it was a documentary, I believe.
What made me cry was how overwhelmed with happiness he was when having a nice conversation and cup of tea with the doctors wife.
Then him being abused got me too. Also when the "freaks" rescued him and took him away.
I'm not an animal, I'm a human being is my kryptonite
Yes that was powerful
Anyone else cry at the end of "The Truman Show"? When Christoph finally talks to Truman, the significance of it hits like nothing else.
Guilty!
Yes!!!
Who is crying just remembering these great movies from just watching the clips?!
I don't mean to sound cliche, but it does seem like they don't make great, original movies like they used to.
From the top of my head, I'd say:
-LOGAN
-THE NOTEBOOK
-THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS
-SAVING PRIVATE RYAN
-THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON
-MY SISTERS KEEPER'S
-MARLEY AND ME
-GOODWILL HUNTING
"You were right about me, tell your sister. You were right" 😭
My mom showed me the Star Wars trilogy when I was about 8. I know that it seemed kinda crazy that I started crying over one of the most evil and intense movie villains ever dying but I was so moved. He spends the entire trilogy being this evil, seemingly heartless man but then he gives up his life to save his son (and ultimately his daughter and the entire galaxy) from the horrible Emperor Palpatine. I remember thinking watching the scene of Palpatine torturing Luke that Darth Vader was going to save him. I was getting angry and sad that he was waiting so long but when he finally yells “No!” And picks up Palpatine and kills him saving his son I just started balling. And then his final goodbye to Luke asking him to “tell your sister that you were right” and then dies….Gah! My 8 year old little girl heart was broken and I was quietly sobbing my eyes out. I have since seen the Star Wars trilogy about ten times (my sister and I are actually going through the Star Wars prequels and originals right now) and every time I watch Darth Vader sacrifice himself for his son…I lose it
@@rubygracemoseley8144 that and "I'll never turn to the dark side. You've failed your Highness. I am a Jedi, like my father before me" he was prepared to die in the light rather than live in the dark. A true Jedi Knight
May the 4th coming up another reason to watch em all again. I still shed a tear when Qui Jon Ginn, Yoda and Anakin die.
Saving Private Ryan is one of the most emotional movies ever , i cried a lot 😢
I agree with you. That one was one of my favorites. It's been ages since I seen it as well
Especially the Omaha Beach scenes. Many old and hard veterans reawakened their PTSD.
I did too. I never saw combat but I come from a long line of military men who did my grandfather even fought in the very war this movie was about and survived. Only to die from an infection a few years after. He survived war only to die anyway
It’s a terrible movie it’s more laughable than anything. It’s xenophobic and propagandistic and would in no way ever be an actual military mission.
@@andrewleah1983 I'm sorry. I'm just looking around for who the fuck asked you
In Field Of Dreams, "Hey dad...wanna have a catch?" always gets me.
That is the corniest movie ever made
‘Forrest Gump.’
One of the greatest Hollywood films will be turning 30 this year.
The one movie that consistently makes me cry like a baby everytime 😓
@@8ojack The dying scene where momma gump consoles him, while that musical score plays in the background. 😌
@@exnihilio89 That’s the biggest culprit! 😭
Hachi was that movie for me. It was tough watching that without being teary.
Yeah, Hachi did it for me too
One of the saddest
Agree...
I agree. Also a question, which made you cry more, the original Japanese version or the American version. I myself did not cry from the original version, but cry a river from the American version.
@@donskun3260 I watched both. I believe the remake would be easier to follow unless you're a Japanese speaker. The remake for me got me pretty good.
"Avengers: Endgame". When Tony says "I love you 3,000" at the end, I'm done holding it together.
He does not say it anywhere near the end.
Kid
@@jfgibson73 After he dies, there's a recording where he says it. And this is gonna sound crazy, but that's at the end of the movie.
I cry my eyes out every time I see that movie.
Spartacus...
There's only one movie that's ever made me cry on I was a kid wrath of Khan that was like back in the 80s when Spock died I cried all the way home
Amazing Grace on bagpipes still gets me today
_"I have been... and ever shall be... your friend.🖖🏻Live long...and prosper."_
The ending of Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron got me one time. I was just so happy to see Spirit reunite with his family.
My #1 is Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. When Aragorn is crowned King of Gondor and tells the hobbits, while bowing, "my friends...you bow to no one." Then the entire kingdom bows too. Totally gets me every time.
Same! That and the "For Frodo!" line at the Black Gate, culminating in the destruction of Barad Dur and the clip of Gandalf crying.
Every. Fucking. Time.
Yes, me too none of these on this list NO, but the return of the king ever time
Gets me every time. Deep impact always hits hard too.
That moment always gets me too. And I've always wished the movie ended with that amazing scene
I know you weren’t doing animated but the ending to Toy Story 3 (watched it with my kids) is something every adult can relate to and struggle not to tear up
I can't even watch it. I have four grown kids and my two oldest boys both moved hundreds of miles away within months of each other. I was so depressed I couldn't get out of bed for a month.
I'm glad Armageddon made it, that's one movie that always gets me
Me too; every time 🤦🏾♀️
Every time
I can't believe Big Fish didn't make this list. Anyone who's had a complicated relationship with their father would bawl their eyes out.
I plead guilty.
the problem is that 99% of the viewer did not understand the movie! I believe Big Fish is incredibly well done and so, so... so sad!
American History X shoulda made the list...
That ending!
It destroys me every time.
How is "Big Fish" not on this list? The funeral scene is the only scene in cinema that ever made me ugly cry.
Yup, that's the one that did it to me too.
Last movie I cried over was The Land Before Time. That was shortly after my mom died 8 years ago. That shit hits hard.
Same. Hit me in the ❤
I took my younger brother to see "LBT" in 1989 in cinema, up in Philly. We walked to theater from my grandparents' house. He was 9, I was 15. When the momma dinosaur died, I knew it hit him hard. I leaned over and. said, "It's OK to cry." And he friggin' lost it. And *that* got to me. His reaction. He's now happily married with three boys and No. 4 on the way in May. :-)
Yep Littlefoot’s mother dying is probably the first time I ever cried from a movie but I was 4. Watched with my kids recently and still cried.
Knowing what happened to Judith Barsi the voice of Ducky will make anyone cry especially with the “dedicated to the memory of” in the credits.
I couldn't watch that movie as a kid without sobbing and I definitely can't as an adult lol
As a grown ass man... I cry in every film nowadays for some reason. I just love movies.
Me too, and a lot of music as well.
With you, buddy.
Cry in every film? Are you some kind of glorified extra? How come you’ve not won an Oscar yet?
Braveheart
The Patriot
Legends of the Fall
What Dreams may come
The Crow (Ending)
The Amazing Spiderman 2(Gwens Death)
A Star is Born
My Girl
La Haine
Butterfly Effect
I am Legend (The Dog Scene)
Neverending Story (Artax)
And more
Avengers: Endgame. Tony uses the Infinity Stones in a self sacrifice play to kill off Thanos and his army. Pepper says to Tony he can rest now. Followed by Tony's funeral.
Honestly, a lot of movies and shows are responsible for men crying. They just don't want to admit it or show it
That sounds like a you problem.
Not so much a matter of admittance, we simply prefer to do that privately, away from judging eyes.
Lord of the Rings has a few tear jerking scenes in it. For example, when Frodo and Sam are on the foot of Mount Doom, and it all seems hopeless Sam helps Frodo in his deepest need. He literally carries Frodo to help relieve the pain that the Ring inflicts on him. This is what I would argue as the definition of brotherhood and brings me to tears every time.
"I love Brian Piccolo..."
Every time. Every single time that movie hets to this part, I start bawling. Can't help it.
Brian's Song
That is one of the most heart-wrenching movies ever. Brian Piccolo apparently grew up in the Miami area. There's a park there named after him.
Avengers End Game choked me up. When Tony met his dad in the past and learned how much his dad truly loves him. And the ending when Tony sacrificed himself for all humanity.
I'm still pissed that they killed off Tony. My kids had seen the movie in theaters. I bought the DVD to watch with my son and credit to my kids, they didn't tell me the ending. I love RDJ. Can't imagine him not being in later movies.
Honorable mentions : Top Gun , Gladiator and Schindler's list 😢
Everyone knows about Goose’s death by now. But I didn’t cry at Iceman’s death in the sequel. I did salute, though.
And the Last Samurai. Though I did not cry, I still felt the pain of the near extinction of the samurai.
lame, lame, and...ok, one good one.
@@jfgibson73 Hey, don't dis Top Gun.
Anybody who doesn't absolutely weep watching "Schindler's List" is not right inside.
Apollo 13. The tension Ron Howard builds during the reentry scene is amazing, weaving what he put on film with news reports from the actual event. The moment they hear Tom Hanks' voice, just when hope seems lost, is perfect. I once saw a man wiping away tears when the movie was played on a long flight.
Hacksaw Ridge is another with an incredibly powerful moment that comes after the hero, Doss, has saved scores of wounded, finding them and lowering them down the cliff single-handedly. He's met by his fellow soldiers with respect and acceptance instead of blows in a scene so well-acted that it's almost painful to watch.
"Gentle now a tender breeze blows, whispers through the gran Torino, whistling another tired song..." Bawled over then, still do now.
Apollo 13 anybody? During re-entry I swear ninjas snuck into my room to chop up some onions...
"We are at condition one, the ship is secure, this is Odyssey signing off" *cue James Horner*
The Ending of Powder (1995) will forever be emotional to me
Me too. I remember watching as a child and bawling my eyes out. Great movie.
Yes! Glad someone mentioned this movie! The deer scene was good too.
@@Sagefrakrobatik "He took whatever it was in that damn deer... and he put it right into me."
I agree and always put it in a box in my head with Phenomenon. Which also made me cry.
@@thomasmoore8794 Dude Phenomenon was 2nd behind powder! Me and my mom use to have Powder and Phenomenon on VHS 📼.
Okay why isn't Ghost with Patrick Swayze in this line up? My uncle used to turn into a balling mess at the end of that film with me following close behind as well.😭😭😭
I can't even listen to Unchained Melody without crying anymore.😭
Yep. That one used to get me too
Guardians 3 got me when I saw it in theaters. Especially seeing Nebula get emotional upon hearing Rocket was okay. Definitely a lot of happy tears between that and Quill reuniting with his family.
You need to see more movies
Your missing
The Champ , that ending gets me every time
You're* missing
@@rodprops
Great add to the conversation.
All those years learning how to speak and type have not been wasted .
@@Viglin123 your sarcasm is ridiculous considering. 🤨
Ricky Schroder saying “Champ wake up, we’ve got to go home”………wow, I teared up just typing this 😢
Another movie I would add is GOTG Vol. 2. I lost my stepdad in 2/17, and he meant the world to me, and loved me as if I was his own blood. Towards the end of Guardians when Yondu says to Peter about Ego just before he died: “He may have been your father, boy, but he wasn't your daddy. I'm sorry that I didn't do none of it right. I'm damn lucky you're my boy.” My “Dad” was not perfect, but he was the perfect father for me.
Field of Dreams is the first time I ever saw my dad cry.
When Wilson floated away in “Castaway”
Life is Beautiful, Terminator 2 and the Lord of the Rings deserve a place too.
I don't know how Boyz in the Hood didn't make this list... Well maybe I do
Every time. When his mom opens up his SAT scores and she realizes he scored higher than the minimum score to get into USC.
“Either they don’t know… don’t show… or just don’t care about what’s going on in the hood…”
Gets me every time.
I can't believe La Bamba is not in this list!!! At the end when Bob running up the hill screaming out "Ritchie!". Me and all my guy friends had tears in our eyes..
Starman made me cry. First time I cried watching a movie.
I am 74 years old.
"Papa, papa don't go" in The Patriot.
I usually get up to go to the can for that part... i have 3 daughters, that part kills me every time.
How did My Girl completely miss this list? You aren’t human if you don’t cry at the end.
Word
I guess I'm not human
Same I must not be human
I remember my uncle, who was managing a video store at the time, said that they played My Girl in the store a lot and it never failed that grown men would stand, watch, and sob in the middle of the aisle.
Agree. Definitely a tearjerker.
Where was Life is Beautiful, The Pianist, Bridge to Terabithia, The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas, Pans Labyrinth.
Don't forget Marley And Me, Braveheart, and Passion Of The Christ.
Nope. Furious 7 is smh
@SeanBoylston I just commented that 😂
They had to include movies that no one cried at. Zero people cry at the end of "Field of Dreams", zero. And I watch a lot of reaction channels.
@@joelwillems4081Then you’ve never watched that film. Or loved your dad.
“I love Brian Piccolo…and I’m asking you to love him too”. I dare anyone to watch this movie and not cry during this scene 😢
*My dad loves good will hunting. I don’t remember him ever crying but he loves that movie.*
Other honorable mentions (that should've been included to the list):
Life Is Beautiful
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
Gladiator
Bridge to Terabithia
Braveheart
The Pianist
Jojo Rabbit
Empire of the Sun
"About Time" (2013) makes me cry every time. It makes me think about my father and all the wonderful times we've spent together!
I'd say The Iron Claw would be a good recent example of this as well!
2nd most emotional final scene of all time, after Toy Story 3.
I know now why you cry.. but it is something I could never do.
It's Saving Private Ryan that always hits home for me. My grandfather was a WW2 veteran, and seeing that movie reminds me of the hell that so many men like him went through. I went to see it in the cinema on Boxing Day of '98, and when those credits rolled there was, to borrow from the late great Meatloaf, "Not a dry eye in the house."
For me, not on the list:
"Rocky." The original.
"Children of Men."
"Arrival."
Of course, "Schindler's List."
Green Mile and Grave of the Fireflies are the only two that got me.
Grave of the Fireflies is one of the best movies I'll never watch again. I was a mess after watching that.
@@ferox965 I hear you. I have a family member that about to watch it, I just bolted out of the room.
Inside Out was it for me. I saw it when my daughter was about 3. Anytime it gets to the end I just cant hold back. It reminds me that my daughter will be a teen and how tough going through puberty and growing up really is. Even tougher, my daughter plays hockey just like the main character.
I didn’t cry at the end of Furious 7, but I did wave goodbye as Brian and Dom drove into the sunset. In fact, the movies I wept at were Avengers: Endgame and Rambo: Last Blood.
For a film series that often uses hammers, dynamite and complete mayhem as stage directions, the ending of no7 was sheer class.
@@FlyingHeadbutt100 True.
@FlyingHeadbutt100 classy would've been to make it the last one
I cried at the end of First Blood when Rambo, John J. was talking about how he had all of this responsibilty and importance in the army but couldn't get a job parking cars.
@@altondavis4003 I know.
Green Mile should be number 1
The very last scene of Brokeback Mountain. Heath Ledger packs so much grief, anguish and regret into 3 words.
Stuff that's not on the list that always gets me:
Casablanca (1942), in way too many scenes, but the airport finale is just perfection.
1776 (1972): "By a count of twelve to none...with one abstention... the resolution...IS adopted..."
The Shawshank Redemption (1994): "Brooks was here."
Jerry Maguire (1996): "You had me at 'Hello.'"
Apollo 13 (1995): "Hello Houston, this is Odyssey. It's good to see you again."
That’s because Casablanca is the greatest film ever made “of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she had to walk into mine.”
The Truman Show - Watching Truman overcome his fear of the sea to find his true Love & learning the truth about his world will make you cry.
Enemy Mine should be on the list, it makes you cry twice.
"I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" was a song that my father dedicated to me, when I was just a little kid, back when he and my mother divorced. As I grew up and developed my appreciation for rock and metal, I also found a renewed appreciation for this as the power ballad it was. Even later, that's when I learned the context it was played in, in Armageddon.
I've since devoted every last line to memory, and now at 28 years old, I cry every time I hear that song, without fail. For its message, for what it's been used in, and for the meaning it holds between me and my father.
Big Fish, that film always brings rain into my eyes
Ford v Ferrari.... Absolutely everytime.
Big Fish ruins me every time.
I’ve only seen my husband cry twice in our 25 year marriage. One was the day his father died, and the other was the night we watched “life is beautiful”. That movie just gutted him.
Deer Hunter and One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest are at the very top for me
How is "Million Dollar Baby" not only on this list and not in the top 3 blows my mind.
How did Bridge to Terabithia miss this list? When his friend died, I cry like a baby.
My Dad was a big bear of a man, just over 6’4” and 250lbs. A very kind and gentle man unless someone bothered his daughters. Then he was hard as steel and unforgiving. He was my hero. Daddy cried every week when Little House on the Prairie came on. We respected him enough to ignore it. Those are the only times I ever saw him shed a tear.
Especially the one where they were forced to sell their house and its contents and the neighbours gathered at the auction to buy it back for them...
Hachi: A Dog's Tale 2009
Oh Lord I cried my eyes out over one. I sobbed out loud which I never do.
Bambi made me cry and still does
🤣🤣🤣
Number 1 should have been “Iron Giant.” When he decides to be a hero and says “Superman” with his arm outstretched. I lost it.
No animated features in this list, but I agree!
My fiance, for our first Christmas together, had a small (maybe 8x10) coal drawing made of the scene where they touch fingers and it has the line "You are who you choose to be." I teared-up just typing that quote. That message matters so much and I think it would hit a lot of people in their hurts.

I got goosebumps just reading your comment. Absolutely phenomenal movie. He was created to be a war machine but chooses to be a hero.
Pursuit of Happyness had me ugly crying. Especially that bathroom scene!!
205: I may not be a dude but Dead Poets Society made me cry so hard
Oh captain my captain. 😢
Watership Down always got me. And I cried my eyes out when Apollo Creed died in Rocky IV (RIP Carl Weathers)
Yall missed “Marley and me”😢
Any movie with a dog
I am a woman who is almost 48yrs old and I have not only seen the majority of the films on this list that have made me cry buckets of tears, but many others that also should be on this list as an expanded list to be 50 films or be a top 20 part 2 list. Some of the films that should have been mention in this list are the following:
Mask (1985), Hook (1991), Chaplin (1992), Prancer (1992), Star Trek: Nemesis (2002), Courage Under Fire (1996), La Bamba (1987), Braveheart (1995), Gladiator (1999), What's Eating Gilbert Grape? (1993), The Story of Us (1999), Philadelphia (1993), Titantic (1997), Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021), A Star Is Born (2018), The Theory of Everything (2014), Roommates (1995), Space Cowboys (2000), & My Life (1993).
Pay it Forward. How that isn't on this list, is beyond me. Most of Clint Eastwood's movies the last 20 years are pretty good for it.
Saving Private Ryan - Soldiers risking everything to bring the last of 4 brothers home, & tell me you didn't cry at the start when Ryan fell to his knees at the graveyard?
"Tell me I'm a good man. Here at this spot now, tell me I lived a good life"😢
It hits harder when you realize why he's crying. At first I thought that was supposed to be Tom Hanks character because it cut to Tom Hanks immediately after
I didn’t. It’s a fucking terrible movie from start to finish. Xenophobic and propagandistic with a plot line that would never be approved militaristically.
@@andrewleah1983 once again no one fucking asked you. I'm willing to bet money you don't know shit about what any of them went through
The end of Cool Runnings ALWAYS gets me
Every.Damn.Time.
And I thought I was the only one on that one…. I don’t know why, but it gets me every time.
Same here.
Or...actuallly, I don't think I watched it. But I had the vhs. I liked setting it out for people to see when we smoked draw.
Remember The Titans
John Q
Glory Road (2006)
(As a grown man, these are other movies that brought tears to my eyes)
Remember The Titans…. Wrecked me!
It's not a movie but from a series. The 2nd season finale of the Mandalorian made thousands of people cry and give them something they've wished in seeing since the original Star Wars trilogy. It brought closure and satisfaction to many die hard Star Wars fans.
