1. Die Hard 2 - Die Harder
Easily the worst of the Die Hard Trilogy (soon to be four films), but still enjoyable to watch if you want to see Bruce Willis say something cool after killing a bunch of bad guys.

2. The Third Man
Ahh, a classic, with a twist. Joseph Cotten plays a writer who finds out, after coming to Vienna regarding a job offer, that his best friend, Harry Lime, was killed in a freak car accident. After investigating the death of his friend, he finds out that Harry might've turned in to a different kind of friend right before the accident. See it, it has Orson Welles.
3. Dr. Strangelove
(or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb)
Another classic that everyone should see at least once. Both Peter Sellers and George C. Scott are phenomenal in this movie. Sellers plays no more than four parts in this dark comedy, and he plays every one of them perfectly. Must-see. Now.
4. Cidade de Deus - City of God
A movie about growing up in gangs in the streets of Rio de Janeiro. A very strong story and visually compelling, dispite being such a violent tale. Not for the weak of heart.
5. Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang
If you haven't heard the name Shane Black before, chances are that you have seen one or more of the movies he has written. Lethal Weapon? Lethal Weapon 2? The Long Kiss Goodnight? The Last Boy Scout? Seen any of those? If you have, you've probably noticed that they have a very fast-paced, witty dialouge, a trademark of Black's, and Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang is no different. This movie doesn't beat around the bush, and demands of it's audience that you keep up, so if you can't grip the story the first time, see it again until you do.
Oh, by the way... Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas, RC! City of God was intense, and sadly enough, it's the only one of those that I've seen.
You should totally see "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang". You'll love it. Val Kilmer's character is named Gay Perry, for obvious reasons. :)
I've never been a Val Kilmer fan, but Shane Black? Yuuuurrrm. :)
The word verification to this comment was GAPYRY. Gay Perry! OMFGGG.
The Internets has spoken; It is your fate to see this movie. :)
Oh, has they? Well, then. That's serious. ;)
Yeah, Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang is very interesting! & Robert Downey Jr. is good.
