Good movies, Indie or whatever

OK, after reading the other thread, lets see what everyone thinks are great movies.

From the JW thread, we've got The Great Magician, Chef and Me and You and Everyone We Know.

To be a great show, it doesn't have to be Indie. So, Indie or not, what do you guys consider great movies? Lets stick with recent history, so probably stuff in the past 5 or 10 years or even 15-20 if it's REALLY worth mentioning.

Under the Skin if you can handle the slow passages. It's not an in between movie. You will hate or enjoy.

Under the Skin (2013) - IMDb

Another Earth.

I thought "Ruby Sparks" was pretty fun. Different, daring, whimsical. Liked it even if it was straying into "chick flick" material.

Honestly... This movie surprised me no end. I can see why it got all of those awards.

The last movie I watched was Imaginaerum, I started it a few moments in which IMHO made it more interesting as I had to figure out a certain point of the story without it being handed to me. Very emotional movie.

A Serbian Film should be no. 1. I don't usually get disturbed by movies (I thought Human Centipede 1 and 2 were funny), but man that movie made me feel weird for the rest of the day.
