From 2001: A Space Odyssey to The Searchers, these movies are meant to be seen on the big screen, according to Reddit.
Ever since The Great Depression, movies have been a means of escape for audiences who for a brief moment, are transported to another place away from everyday life through the magic of the cinema. While many will argue that they can still have the movie experience in the comfort of their home, the theater is the heart and soul of movies, and some films like Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window and the wartime drama, Saving Private Ryan, are required to be seen on the silver screen.
2 'Saving Private Ryan' During World War II, Captain John Miller and his men are assigned to cross enemy lines to find Private James Ryan and bring him home safely after his three brothers are killed in combat.

When he arrives, he blatantly disobeys his orders and with the help of a local man, Sherif Ali , he joins the alley troops as they plan to attack a heavily guarded port in Turkey.
Spielberg's action-packed thriller, Jurassic Park, gives viewers an up close and personal look into dinosaurs that just hits differently on the big screen. The movie has several suspense-filled scenes including the famous raptor scene in the kitchen and escaping a massive tyrannosaurus as well as stunning views of an idyllic utopia and landscape that deserves more than a widescreen.
