Mutual Appreciation / Andrew Bujalski, USA 2005
Spirited Away / Hayao Miyazaki, Japan 2001

There are a lot of others that I loved... but from what I've seen so far I guess these would be the leaders.

Overrated and not to my liking:
Werckmeister Harmonies, There Will Be Blood, Songs from the 2nd Floor, everything by the Coens, everything by Pixar, everything by Tarantino, Amelie, Donnie Darko, Batman Begins franchise, In Bruges, and more.
