I'm not even trying to guess, since it's obviously something asian which means I have asolutely no idea what it might be, but you probably should give others some more hints :)

This one should suffice, since it's quite similar to the movie poster and it's a movie that came around in many places of the world and is not very old:

No.

Next hint:
It's from 200x.

Is that Mr Hanky on the coffee table? :P

Yep, great movie. I just watched it again last weekend.

The next film is up.

In honor of our recent friend that wanted something newer, action oriented, exciting etc.

Hint: This director recently made a hollywood action film.

Hint: Documentary.

Brazil ?

City of God?

I guess my initial hint wasn't clear.

Hint: The film is a documentary.

Hint: Released in the 2000's

It was, they just can't read!

Hint: The director just finished a new series for Netflix.

Hint: Prior to making his hollywood action film the director's previous film was the highest grossing film of all time in his native country.

Well, I'm confused. I've found a guy who fits the "netflix series" and "highest grossing movie in his home country", but neither IMDB nor Wikipedia list any hollywood action movies or documentaries under his name.

Is it bus 174?
