    not europian or anything, just my favs :P
    american movies are awesome too...

    Pulp fiction
    Reservoir dogs
    The killing
    2001 a space odyssey
    Dr Strangelove
    Full Metal Jacket
    Leon
    Bladerunner
    Das Boat (original)
    No mans land

    from the top of my head, probly my favourite movies, altho I liked the original Das Boat series over the original movie (and lets not start a discussion about which of the 2 was made first)
    No mans land is definitly a movie you want to watch, but maybe youll find it less funny then europians but still a great movie

    edit: lol just noticed all of em get a 8+ on imdb XD

    Umm, two Belgian movies would be:
    "The Mind Of A Killer" (Detective story)
    "De Hel Van Tanger" (Dutch name, it's about a guy that gets imprisoned in Turkey and lives in hellish conditions while his family in Belgium try to get him out)

    Ronin is my favourite film of all time, prolly the best car chases and fight scenes i have ever seen, it was made in france but had an american director (John Frankenhiemer)
    other favourite non-american films have already been mentioned but there are 3 british films that everyone has to see is 1.lock, stock and two smoking barrles 2.snatch 3.layer cake. awsome gangster films.
