Well:
Brotherhood of war ('Taegukgi hwinalrimyeo' in Korean). A great Korean war movie, you should watch it if you get the chance, great yet heart breaking strory-line.
Joint Security area (or JSA for short).('Gongdong gyeongbi guyeok JSA' in Korean). Another Korean war film well worth seeing
Black Hawk down (although not as touching as the past 2)

I'm surprised that Apollo 13 has not come up yet. That one always gets me. Also, you all have to see Grave of the Fireflies. It's a Studio Ghibli anime film that shows what happens to two Japanese children following the firebombing of Tokyo. Phenominally depressing film, but it is definitely worth seeing.
