City of God
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Chungking Express
the first one that comes to mind is Der Untergang (Downfall for the americans :P).
for those who dont know the movie: its about Hitlers last days in the bunker in Berlin.
a very beautifull movie.
not very topic related but i really hate 'Murica for re-doing every good foreign-language movie like they did with 'The girl with the dragon tatoo'.. the Swedish trilogy was a huge hit and within no-time there was an american re-make.
and they are going to do the same with Intouchables (a french movie)
Pan's Labyrinth
The Orphanage
Love Me If You Dare
You're better off blaming cinemagoers for not wanting to watch a film with a subtitles unless it's a torture porn film about Jesus. Even the Raid films which are fantastic action films (and as commercial it gets) got little traction. Hence we get English language remakes.
Der Untergang is a good one.
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon is one of my all time favourite films.
La Femme Nikita
Amelie
Wasabi
Hero
Night on the Galactic Railroad
Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... Spring
A Tale of Two Sisters
Pan's Labyrinth
The Devil's Backbone
Studio Ghibli films
Super Dimensional Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love?
Tenchi Muyo! In Love
Anything Guillermo Del Torro does is great, especially his foreign films and of course Studio Ghibli...but some of my other favorites are Old Boy, Let The Right One In, I Saw the Devil, and The Man From Nowhere :)
I really liked those Lord of the Rings movies.
I saw Ghost in the Shell (the original 1995 version, obviously) today, and it was really good. It reminded me a lot of Blade Runner.
A Royal Affair with Alicia Vikander and Mads Mikkelson.
Foreign languages?
Oh, you mean something like English? :p
I will go with that, because English is technically a foreign language to me even though in Sweden we are awesome at it, lol.
I really like "Jurassic Park" and the anime movie "Spirited Away".
I was also blown away by the German movie "Lola Rennt" back in 1998.
