MovieLens is a research project at the University of Minnesota that gives movie recommendations based on your ratings of other movies. I believe it was one of the first collaborative filtering systems, created over 10 years ago. Here's its Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MovieLens |

I use The Numbers to see which movies are highly rated; as well as historically which ones did well in the theater, or on DVD. |

Check out metacritic. From their own site:

Check out Jinni. It's a "Taste Engine" that recommends movies based on what you tell it you like. |

If you've already got a Netflix account1, there's the Netflix Top 100, Critics' Picks, and Award Winners. 1 Yes, of course Netflix isn't free, but if you're already paying for an account there's no incremental cost for these lists. |

You already mentioned Imdb Top 250 but in general the whole site is very useful and I find the User Rating pretty accurate. I tend to like movies that get good marks and dislike the ones with bad marks. In some cases I had to disagree, mostly because I found films with low marks better than expected. Another great site is Roger Ebert's who makes short and well founded reviews of most popular films. |

You might be interested to check out Flickchart. It's a recommendation tool by way of ranking your favorite films via movie matchups. It keeps track of your preferences and the movies you haven't seen yet, while automatically building a list of your favorites movies and a list of the best movies you've never seen. |

I found http://www.hellomovies.com/ to have a nice UI for tracking what you have seen and what you want to still see. The "recommendations" (using some sort of algorithm I assume) are not great, but they have a meta-ranking on top of IMDB that shows unseen top movies which you can then filter down by genre/year/taste/your social circle, etc. Combined with the straightforward way to track what movies you want to watch and the ability to see where you can access these movies now online (Hulu, Netflix, etc) it's a winner. |
