Definetly worth a watch.

I finally did several weeks ago Christian, and I agree with your last sentence. Later, I found out there were some inaccuracies in the movie, but they don't matter though. I've often read about Brian Clough, how people compare him with Mourinho, and now I understand why. Big-mouths with just as big achievement to make up for it. Thanks for the suggestion, mate

City of God, a Brazilian crime drama with English subtitles, if you liked the Godfather, I''m sure you will love this, very different but equally impressive. I bow down to the guy who directed this, the cinematography is a work of art.
Godfather trilogy, of course
Burn after reading, a quirky satire about a few stupid Americans, whats not to like about that?...if you like dark shock humor then its a must
Monty Python - the meaning of life, there are 2 types of people, those that "get" Monty Python and those that don't
Monty Python - the life of brian, "
Napoleon Dynamite, frikkin hilarious, nuff' said
Despicable me, best animation of teh year for me
District 9, more than just another alien movie, I found the layers
Borat: The cultural leanings of America...toilet humor and sexist jokes at its best
Other movies that are ok: Blood Diamond, Eastern Promises, Syriana

Haven't watched most of them other than City of God, Godfather Trilogy, and Burn After Reading. I'm not really a fan of some slapstick comedy so I must say I could only watch the first half an hour or so of Napoleon Dynamite otherwise I risk of

Anyway I really like Burn After Reading (and most Coen Brothers movies). They mock many things, from plastic surgery to exaggerated paranoia. I nearly laughed my guts out at some of the last lines from the movie:

CIA Superior: “So what did we learn from this?
CIA Officer: “Um... I don't know.
CIA Superior: “I don't ****in' know either. I guess we learnt not to do it again."
