Amores perros. Amelie, Taxi, and Brotherhood of the wolf. This film is ace, there's loads of great fight sequences. Amores perros is hard to watch in a cinema when you're realy drunk, and only went in becasue you noticed there was film starting at 1230 am.

I loved Irreversable, great film with the most brutal scene in a movie I have ever seen. seen.

Casshern, beautiful japanese / chinese / asian, whatever, film based on an anime series I think. Kind of like a live action Final Fantasy with CG. Amazing.

I was thinking that, haha.

So I'm guessing we're speaking about foreign language films.

just saw irreversable for the first time. been meaning to for ages. some brutal shit. i felt sick at parts.

city of god is one of the best films i`ve ever seen. real good. city of men is the follow up, it`s shot like a series. also good

got a lot of the studio ghibli animation series to work through just now. they are all very beautiful.

ong bak was on my recent list, superb film, mostly for the martial arts craziness.

im getting much more into foriegn films than anything else just now. you always seem to get proper filmmaking rather than just blockbuster glitz and effects. some great stuff.

Word.

If you liked City of God for God's sake be like Don and hunt down City of Men. It's also awesome.

I'm guessing we're not counting U.S. flicks so for me it's probably Brotherhood Of The Wolf.
