The Lives of Others. A story about the Stasi right before and after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Outstanding movie.
I think Giacomo Cimini’s 2003 film Red Riding Hood was the last one I watched that I'd consider a foreign film. On Netflix, I believe. It's about "the misadventures of a young girl acting as a vigilante, delivering violent justice to thieves, rapists, murderers and thugs with the aid of her imaginary, wolf mask wearing friend, George". It was different. No subtitles, it's in English. Not bad.
There are a lot of those action type b movies that I'm pretty sure are foreign. Everyone's accent just seems a little "off". Hitman is the first that comes to mind.
^^ this movie rocks.....it's like a Scooby Do ending in that it shows different outcomes based on what happens at certain times. Like instead of getting delayed by the train, you make it on time....so THIS happens instead.... Or you trip and fall, and your running late...so now THIS happens......it's a rad flick, good looking girl, German, good times. Lot's of action. Speaking of Kung Fu, there is one called "Ip Man". It is based on the true story of Bruce Lee's master. So, you can imagine how bad assed Bruce Lee was, well this is the guy that taught him. It's based in the '30's when the Japanese were invading China. Besides the martial arts, the story is really, really good. It stars Donnie Yen as Ip Man. It was released in 2008. There is also Ip Man 2.....I'd also recommend that one too. :up::up:
Unless you happen to know the actual story of Ip Man, in which case that movie will just piss you off.
