    Jurassic Park and Tombstone could be argued as top 10.

    Forgot about Total Recall. One of the best (and most brutal) sci-fi/action films ever IMO.

    Total Recall gets overshadowed because shortly thereafter, Arnold made T2.

    As a sci-fi satire movie, I might be in the minority, but I prefer Demolition Man to Total Recall.

    The '90s was also the Tom Clancy/Jack Ryan era - Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, and Clear and Present Danger.

    Jesus H, my favorite film of all time. Nil By Mouth, is from 1997. I always think it's from later because I didn't see it until 2004.

    One of my random 90s favorites is In The Line of Fire. It came to mind after I saw you list John Malkovich.

    John Malkovich played a great villain, I loved his performance.

    That was a strong year for Best Supporting Actor. Tommy Lee Jones won the Oscar over Malkovich, Leonardo DiCaprio for Gilbert Grape, Pete Postlethwaite for In the Name of the Father, and Ralph Fiennes for Schindler’s List.

    Sean Penn didn’t get nominated, but he was really good in Carlito’s Way.
