Hero, and Infernal Affairs trilogy. Those are the movies I'd truly suggest.

I don't really watch a lot of movies, especially Asian/foreign ones, but I saw "The Man From Nowhere" (Korean title "Ajeossi") recently. Not a classic or anything (newish and probably a bit cliched), but not bad imo.

Ok.

1) Breathless
2) Bad Guy
3) Old Boy
4) Harakiri
5) Twilight Samurai
6) Roshomon
7) The Hidden Blade
8) The Chaser
9) Yojimbo
10) Sanjuro
11) 3 Iron
12) High and Low
13) Kagemusha
14) Fish Story
15) Last Life in the Universe
16) Departures

Off the top of my head, these are the very best, and I would recommend them to anyone.

I watched The Chaser with a group of friends one night. It's a very good movie. Very intense and somewhat heartbreaking in the end, though I don't want to spoil too much since it's quite fun to watch. It's a Korean film, if you're into that kind of thing.

Unfortunately, don't hold your breath for any Starcraft references in that movie. However, a friend of mine did catch a random Brood War reference in My Boyfriend is Type B.

I think the only movie I would recommend that's not already mentioned is Jackie Chan's Supercop.

It's the pinnacle of 80's kung fu action and humor. Jackie Chan is to kung fu movies as Arnold Schwarzzaneger(or however you spell it) is to action movies. Just really entertaining. :D

Hmm... can anyone recommend another movie that's got as much (or more) action as The Man From Nowhere? The suspense/thriller aspect combined with the action puts that movie a cut above imo.

Yep The Chaser + Oldboy were both very good. I've got Battle Royale ready to watch... but no other action/thriller movies. 13 assassins was pretty good as well.

Finally i was able to start watching some movies over christmas:

Battle Royale: I enjoyed a lot. great pictures and choice of (classical) music. I also really like takeshi kitano in general and he did a good job as the sadistic teacher.

13 Assasins: Also really good with impressive fight scenes

next to go: Seven Samurai and love exposure
unfortunately they are sooooooo long and im having a bad cold right now and i feels like a big waste watching those movies if you are not able to concentrate the whole time ,so i will wait till next week

Bad Guy and Breathless. Bad Guy is the best of the two.

One of the top 3 korean movies for me. I've seen it 4 times already.



This movie is so sick.

Others beat me to it, but Sex is Zero, and My Sassy Girl are both pretty funny Korean movies.

If you're looking for something ridiculously sad check out Sad Movie or A Moment to Remember. They're probably the two saddest movies I've ever watched, but also just very good movies.

I'll post more if anything else comes to mind.
