Korean movies > American movies.
Some that I remember:
Forgotten
Night in paradise (my personal favourite of the recent ones about gangsters with epic ending, on netflix)
The Call
Parasite (one of the best)
Time to hunt
Also Snowpiercer (with Chris Evans) if it fits here
Oldboy (original)Always pick 4 crew
Coffee and green tea crew
Poverty student crew
Blue eyes crew
Negging bronies on sight crew
CS:GO crew
Eastern European crew

Oldboy has been mentioned, the other movies in the "Vengeance Triolgy" by the same director are good: Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance and Lady Vengeance
My favorite Korean thriller is "The Chaser." Keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole movie, great ending. DiCaprio was supposed to do an English version years back but it fell through."I'm just a lat guy, you know? I've got these amazing lats, and I'm just living in an ab guy's world." -Workaholics

Snowpiercer is a good one, especially now that governments are talking about banning red meat and encouraging insect diets as a solution to climate change.
The only other one I can remember that hasn't been mentioned is The Host.
It's nice to watch some films outside the typical Hollywood paradigm, but I could not bring myself to enjoy Parasite. Something about was just deeply unsettling and not in a thriller/horror way.Beans. Cleans. Gasoline.

The Man from Nowhere is one of my all time favorites, so I’d recommend that one first. The ending fight scene where he massacres a room full of thugs was easily one of the best choreographed fight scenes I’d ever watched.Originally Posted by mulletwarrior
