Children of Men 2006
Creatively inspired in so many ways, beautifully shot and also soul-crushing and disturbing in a way few movies achieve. One long buildup of tension, a road trip movie (Cuaron specialty?), a tragic hero study, truly effective allegory about colonial capitalism and its descent into authoritarian horror, and a distinctive soundtrack and visual style that doesn't seem to lose its impact even after repeated rewatches.
