I’ve really enjoyed Parasite, I didn’t scroll to read everyone’s answers but didn’t see that one mentioned
I think the marketing needs a tweek. I went in expecting a horror.
Les untouchables. Way better than the American remake.
Is that the same as Intouchables? If so, I loved that film!
“Look at it. Now you print, print, print and get out of here!”

Why would anyone remake a perfect film?
Why wouldn’t you want to inject Kevin Hart and Jared Leto into the perfect film? Sounds like audiences would really go for that combo!
Uh, it’s Brian Cranston, but still… It didn’t need to be done.
Ah, sorry, I had a running joke with a friend about Leto being injected into films for unclear reasons and it escaped here. My bad.
Great film. Brilliant performances. I think the actor playing Driss is one of the most charismatic. He really nails that role.

Wings of Desire. (Der Himmel über Berlin)
German, Wim Wenders, 1987. Solveig Dommartin was so beautiful in that.
Was remade into a movie called City of Angels with Nick Cage that didn’t even come close to being as good.
Wings of Desire
So good, I need to rewatch it soon.
Maria Full of Grace
There’s so many good ones to choose from, but the one that sprang to mind first for me was the movie Metro. Something about how all the characters felt so believable and the set design was phenomenal.
Shaolin Soccer
Shaolin Soccer is great, but I think Kung-Fu Hustle edges it out for me.
Wages of Fear (1953) One of the best thrillers I’ve ever seen.
It was remade in 1977 and called “Sorcerer”. I’ve never seen that version and neither has anyone else because it opened against Star Wars.
Clip from ‘Sorcerer.’ You can see it on YouTube and it’s worth the price.
I love both movies.
Does it have to be exclusively in a foreign language, or does it still count if a dub exists as long as that’s not the original? If I can count it, A Silent Voice/Koe no Katachi (2016).
I’m a fan of Angel-A by Luc Besson.
Godzilla minus one
I’m cheating a bit but the French movies Asterix: Mission Cleopatre and La Grande Vadrouille (1966) are both criminally underappreciated in the English speaking world.
Das Boot might be my favourite movie full stop.
El Hoyo (En: The Platform)
It’s also in English but i watched it in Spanish.
