Well for example I don't understand how anyone can like Hero. The first reason for this is simply the story. I hated it. This was evident in the theatre and also talking with people afterwards. The reason was that I felt the same scene was replayed, over and over again because the story kept changing like that. The cinematography on the other hand was actually amazing and very beautiful. But I saw this a while ago as well since it was released in China earlier and I had a DVD from a chinese friend. She said in China it didn't get a great reception. But anyway that's just opinion.
Now here is my favorite foreign movie because it is so simple and beautiful. Cinema Paradiso. They actually released a new directors cut. But there are quite a few other movies I've seen so it's hard to recommend just one. Osama which was the first movie out of post-Taliban Afghanistan is great. Monsieur Ibrahim was also simple and fun. The Triplets of Belville had no talking really but was incredibly well created. An old, but classic, is Ran. And I just remembered, a good movie I saw was Yi Yi.
There are lots of movies that come out of Iran that have incredible reviews but they are so incredibly sad that I can't watch them anymore. Some don't even really flow well to me. The Circle was one of those movies. I believe it was banned in Iran and Canadians loved it when they saw it.
