Brilliant opening lines, sums the movie up perfectly, and tells the audience exactly what's going on right from the get go. Also I think this kind of introspective, thought-processing really hits home with audiences, we all know this feeling, racing thoughts of self-doubt. Not to mention it is absolutely hilarious :)

Up there with other great opening lines: Run Lola Run (Lola Rennt), Trainspotting, American Beauty.

What's everyone elses favourite opening lines? And why?
