Here's one I would have put on my lsit which didn't appear on yours....Blade Runner.

I think it counts!!
I actually consider a lot of movies to be life-changing! I take them to my heart and they melt into my personality.

Thank you for not forgetting Day of the Jackal.  It's been one of my favorite movies of all time since I first saw it back in the late 80's.  I've seen it many times since, turning people onto this underpraised masterpiece of details and procedure.  My wife generally can't stand my taste in movies that involve killers of some form, but even she loved Day of the Jackal.

No love for Munich?  Probably one of Spielberg's better movies.  I didn't expect it to be in the anyone's top five.  I thought a shout out would for sure come up.  Anyway just throwing the name out there because I think it counts as a hitman movie.  When Steven is consistent and actually wants to tell a great story he's one of the best.
