It depends, what's your favorite genre? What do you define as "good movies"?
If you like historical movies, watch "The 800".
If you like spy movies, check out "Cliff Walkers".
If you want the equivalent of Murican patriotic action war movies, watch "Wolf Warrior".
If you want something more serious, you might like "The Best Is Yet to Come" and "One Second".
If you like comedies, I don't usually watch it too much but I recently enjoyed "Full River Red".
If you like SciFi, check out "The Wandering Earth" (and the prequel), I would also suggest watching CDrama "Three-Body" (which is also being adapted by Netflix now) although it's kind of bloated.
If you like Fantasy, check out "Creation of the Gods"
There are so many more, I definitely have a recency bias and I have no doubt there's some better movies out there for every taste. These are mostly not "peak cinema", most are just commercial movies like we've in the West. You can find most Chinese movies with subs pretty much in any piracy site, dubs are unlikely or non-existent.
Edit: If you're interested in learning more about Chinese cinema, I would suggest Accented Cinema.
