In no particular order...
-Alien
-Goodfellas
-Chicago (close runner up, Cabaret)
-Fargo
-The Fall
I'm assuming that we're making a distinction between "great" and "favorite" movies here.
There are lots of great films whose merits I admire without feeling compelled to watch them repeatedly.

hmmm, difficult to keep it to 5, surely a lot are gonna be left out, but ok, here's my take:
The Abyss!!! (Just perfect!)
The Shawshank Redemption
The Notebook
Blood in Blood out (too bad very few people know about this movie! it's a great one)
Legends of the Fall
but so many more are egual in greatness to those above, for my taste at least.

"the shawshank redemption" outclass movie
The scene from The Abyss in which Ed Harris and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio are trapped in the flooding sub is one of my personal favorites.Of course Cameron always knew his way around an emotionally charged set piece.
That said I think The Abyss falters badly at times and I'm not sure that the ending got it right.
Legends of the Fall ,the best part was the last line.
