The first 15 minutes of The Graduate is pretty great.
2001, of course.
Saving Private RyanThere came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

Jaws. Also the best movie in total.
Every day is a gift, not a given right.

The Apartment. One of the most perfect scripts ever written and economically sets up everything that will be paid off within the first 15 minutes.
