Below is a list of notable films that may not be covered in Wikipedia. The notability of the film has been defined by one or more of the following criteria: critical acclaim, large box office or recognition as one of the best in its genre. Many of the films have existing articles about them but may need to be redirected. Please see the guidelines at the project page.
If you are creating a new article, please follow the guidelines at WikiProject Films. If you don't have time to create an article with a full infobox please put [[Category:Needs film infobox]], so that others know to do so.
If the film has an infobox (it does not need to be complete) only then remove it from the list.
