I'm always a sucker for a good monologue in a film. My two faves have to be these...
V For Vendetta - V's speech over the airwaves
25th Hour - Edward Norton's speech to the mirror
Okay, lets have 'em.

Its gotta be Ben Affleck's speech in Chasing Amy, where he tells her he loves her, and not just as a friend, and he knows it might break up the friendship, but he cant keep it inside any longer coz its killing him.
Gets to me every time

I don't know if it counts, but Steve Martin in Planes, Trains & Automobiles, when hes at the car hire desk. Just brilliant.

Agreed, the entire fear and loathing film. The speech/writing about the san francisco acid wave is the best thing Thompson (in his own words too) ever wrote....
agreed, Walken in that scene IS the boy, callous and friendly at the same time where as Hopper knows for a fact he's not walking out of that situation so he gives him shit anyway.
'I haven't killed anybody in seven years' etc (maybe not seven but whos counting eh?)
Also Hopper in apocalypse now, as the photographer, crazed by war and obsessed with Kurtz...
Can't recalll any of it off-hand, it was all pretty much written on the morning of the shoot. Proper acting. Class in a bearded glass.

One of the best-ever monologues is at the end of Bladerunner - by the white-haired replicant just before he dies. (Replicants were basically genetically modified human slaves with a pre-determined life span) The speech is brilliant for what is says about human beings and inhumanity.

Alabama Whitman in True Romance
''Amid the chaos of that day, when all I could hear was the thunder of gunshots, and all I could smell was the violence in the air, I look back and am amazed that my thoughts were so clear and true, that three words went through my mind endlessly, repeating themselves like a broken record: you're so cool, you're so cool, you're so cool. And sometimes Clarence asks me what I would have done if he had died, if that bullet had been two inches more to the left. To this, I always smile, as if I'm not going to satisfy him with a response. But I always do. I tell him of how I would want to die, but that the anguish and the want of death would fade like the stars at dawn, and that things would be much as they are now. Perhaps. Except maybe I wouldn't have named our son Elvis''
