Most of the stuff they play in movies is too ambient to be categorized as music if you ask me, Blade Runner and Jaws for example, it's just a bunch of subtle noises. I liked the music in Being John Malkovich and Bourne Identity. Bad Company also had good music which sharply contrasted the mediocre quality of the rest of the film. If I had to pick one though I think it would have to be Star Wars. I think you could prove that half of Star War's success was on that awesome score alone. But it has to be integrated into the movie skillfully. That's one of the things that really pissed me off about Star Wars 2, they were playing the dueling fates song every 5 minutes. You're only supposed to play it at critical parts of the movie, not when people are running around on conveyer belts.
