I also recommend The Good The Bad And The Ugly (Just watch it, it's so dramatic and Clint Eastwood is one of the best actors), Coraline (It's cool and creepy), Life is Beautiful (A sad and poignant WWII film), The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas (What Life is Beautiful said), and Shin Ultraman (If you like big robot alien guys fighting big monsters)
