Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that's an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I'll go first: I think "Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows" was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

Chandi Chok to China (2009) - it's obviously a spoof movie (like Austin Powers), but despite going in knowing nothing of Bollywood I loved it. I'm pretty sure we rented the DVD from Netflix back in the day. It's rated 42%/31%

Mio in the Land of Faraway (1987) - very young Christian Bale in a fantasy world with Christopher Lee as the bad guy. Simultaneously recorded in both Russian and English. It's rated --%/55%

I'm sure there are others (In the Name of the King and Equilibrium have both already been mentioned), but these two are the ones that I decided to search for. I know the second one is older, but color me inspired by the mention of the 1984 Dune (love Patrick Stewart, but I don't feel like he was cast right in that movie).
