Lawless is worth a watch, Brick too but that's a bit more than 5 years old. If you're up for a foreign language film then Headhunters (Norwegian) is one of the best films I've seen in a while.

It's kind of a funny story - good lovefilm find the other day, based around a mental health clinic, deep, dark and funny.
Otherwise, the Adjustment Bureau surprised me, thought it would be quite different and Inception is one of those films that needs rewatching to see what you missed, like Fight Club/Donnie Darko/Pulp Fiction

Starbuck, French Canadian with sub titles, I thought it was going to be a bit ****y but turned out to be one of the funniest films I've watched recently...

Just watched Sightseers, not big on comedy but was funny, and had a potential STW'er in it.

Also, Jack Reacher - not bad for Tom Cruise

Django Unchained - For Leonardo's performance.
