You may notice that most Chinese movies have English subtitles which is beneficial to language learners. A great many Mandarin films are ideal materials to learn Chinese as well as have a deeper understanding of Chinese culture. Comedies like "Lost in Thailand"(泰囧) and "Let the bullets fly" (让子弹飞) and action movies such as "JET Li's Fearless"(霍元甲) and "Ip Man"(叶问) are the classics that you should not miss.

If you prefer animated movies or Si-Fi movies, "White Snake"(白蛇：缘起) and "The Wandering Earth"(流浪地球) are great films which have been released recently.
