the usual suspects
Being John Malcovich
Adaptation
Pi
Memento

oh and "One Flew Over the Coocoo's Nest" is also pretty good

sorry for the double post.
have you seen any kevin smith movies? they are pretty good, but a lot of people over-rate them these days. donnie darko and clockwork orange are great movies! but i have only read the book of one flew over the coocoo's nest but i really gotta see the movie. you must have seen fight club? if not then you gotta check it out, definately one of the best movies ive ever seen. spiderman, fellowship of the ring, from hell, ghost dog way of the samurai and the way of the gun. just a few off the top of my head.
