Could You Recommend Me Some Amazing Movies?

I enjoy watching great movies but can’t say I’ve watched that many. Since I’m quite particular I hate the idea of testing loads of movies and wasting time/money to find the right ones for me.
So if some of you could help me out by recommending some that would be great.
I don’t really have a particular genre that I can name I like so what I’ll do is give you a description of the movies I really enjoy and name a few.
The kind of movies I like are ones where you can tell the director/write has given it a lot of thought. Something “different”, an idea which is maybe a bit strange but executed well, doesn’t have to be a “Hollywood Blockbuster”.
If it’s an action movie I dislike the pure fighting and gun ones, I like something with a bit more depth, a touch of thriller added to it, with scheming plots, twists, strange personalities, something a bit more niche. True stories are always good and movies set in one place or setting such as Panic Room.
If it’s a thriller then it must be something that makes me think, something deep which makes you question things, but not over the top deep so that I’m left feeling completely surreal.
If it’s a drama/romance, then I enjoy movies that portray real life in the world today, in the last 20 years or so, not before or after. Preferably with not too much soppy romance, I like the movie to focus on more important things then just “I’m in love with her, she loves him, but it’s complicated because I can’t let her know she likes me, so I need to play hard to get and eventually she’ll come to me, but I’ve moved on, yet I still miss her and…”
If the movie has comedy that’s a big bonus, it’s best when it’s dry or unexpected, or done in an unusual way.
I’ve purposely left out horror/sci-fi/fantasy! It’s not that I don’t enjoy them, just not what I’m looking for at the moment!
If I’ve finished the movie feeling a bit philosophical, or inspirational, or intellectual then I usually have really enoyed it.
Finally, here is a small list of the types of movies I would rate an all time best for me:
Amelie
The Departed
Blow
Lord of War
The Disappearance of Alice Creed
Kidulthood
Changeling
City of God
Apologies for writing an essay but any help is much appreciated.
Thanks 🙂
