What's your 'must see' Film? Or just recommend one to me...

I know this must have been done many times but I'd love a few recommendations please. I'll watch pretty much anything, films with subtitles are fine too if there's any arty types out there.

I hate Saw/Hostel type movies and most scary movies. Also not keen on Quentin Tarantino type films.

My must see is Shawshank Redemption.

My recommendations are:

Never Let Me Go - I loved it felt so original.

Iron Lady - normally not a fan of Meryl Streep but I was completely engrossed. Maybe as I remember a lot of the history.

    Are the twilight films out then? ? One of our faves which has minimum subtitles is apocalypto.

    I was going to say Shawshank! I like Amelie too. There are so many films I love but can't think of any now you've asked!

    I love Guy Richie and Tarantino films- Kill Bill, Lock stock, snatch etc

    Inception and Shutter Island (Leonardo Dicaprio) are awesome too.

    I generally love all British films too.

    One of my all time favs is an old British film 'wish you were here' really simple storyline about a teenager growing up in post war Britain not a huge budget or lots of special effects and Emily Lloyd's acting is awesome.

    Apoco is really good. I think Mel Gibson directed it.

    Oh well if you arent fussy start the twilight boxset! The first one is brilliant, when it was a little inde film before it all blew up.

    Funkyjameseo - I know Wish you were here, I'm quite old so remember it, it's brilliant. Funny and sad, that would be a must see recommendation I think.

    To everyone else, thank you, I've got a chunky list now ?

    Seven pounds - couldn't watch it again I cried so much the first time. Brilliant film.

    Life is Beautiful - Subtitled. Is in Italian English and French. A story about the holocaust an the father tries to be really lighthearted and make it funny for his son.

    This means war - just new out and saw it in the cinema, would watch itagain

    Do you like Grease? I need to have this in a must see. My favourite film ever.

    Also have a thing for the Final Destination films even though I hate scary/gory/violent films.

    I agree with Missus, can't beat a bit of Twilight!

    Hangover is brilliant

    Green Mile and Shawshank are classics

    The Notebook is just a nice, easy watching film that I never get tired of

    Taken is good

    Butterfly effect is pretty cool movie- about how changing a single moment in time can change the whole path of life.

    Momento- about a guy who can't make new memories so wakes up every morning not knowing who he is or who the people in his life are.

    Studio 54- based around the uber cool new York club. I so which I was there!

    Cruel intension - just an easy to watch teen flick.

    The Dream Girls- just for the Beyonce and Jennifer Hudson sing along factor.
