Inception's good.

Work your way through IMDB's top 250. There's some good movies there, many you've probably seen, but they'll be some you haven't thought of.

If you don't mind subs there is some great world cinema knocking about, anything good gets remade and ****ed up by Hollywood.
Foreign film section of borders was brilliant and was a shame they closed down.

The Taxi films are good if you can deal with listening in French and reading subtitles. I'd watch 1 and 2 but not bother with 3 as it got a bit silly. Haven't seen 4 yet as I can't seem to find it on DVD.

I enjoyed Lone Survivor, it was very similar to Black Hawk Down in feel and filming.

Blue Ruin - low-budget revenge movie. Best film I've seen this year.
Generation Kill - Ok it's a series, but if you liked Blackhawk Down, you'll enjoy this.

The bicycle thieves

Just watched this a couple of weeks ago. Great cinema, though maybe along slightly different lines to the OP's list...

I'll add 'A Straight Story' and 'Leon'.

If you've not done the Bourne trilogy, give that a spin. All of them are excellent, the first in particular is top class.

Orgasmo is a great example of a film so bad it's good, and IMO hilarious.

Nothing to do with your list of likes, but variety is the spice of life and all that 🙂

The Grand Budapest Hotel and Calvary are probably the two best I have watched in the last 6 months. Your list appears quite eclectic so these might be worth a watch.

Some good films there..forget them all.
Watch [b]'Dead Man's Shoes'. [/b]
Dark, gritty, occasionally funny, compelling, a 'f@ck me' twist.
Utterly brilliant Shane Meadows film.
You'll be glad you chose this, I promise.

Not really. There's three with Bourne and then something odd with Jeremy Renner.

+1 for Blue Ruin and American Hustle.

Here's the gen on [url= http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/headhunters/ ]Headhunters[/url] - really impressive, brutal, edge of seat/suspenseful. Well acted.
