If not favorite, ones that touched you in some way.

I'll start by mentioning some movies from my mother tongue(Malayalam of Kerala, India):

Mumbai Police
A crime thriller (Came out almost 2 decades ago n was very striking for the time)
KammaraSambhavam
Political/Historic satire/drama (The main actor has some cases on him, but the movie is quite good)
Kathavasheshan
Devasuram
Conservative sigma male upper class Kerala dude getting character development. I really liked how the transformation happened in it
Maheshinte Parthikaaram (Mahesh's Revenge)
Not an action movie.

From my country, but not in my mother tongue:

Super Deluxe - A Tamil movie that I recently watched, quite unique
Enthiran (Robot), a Tamil movie
Has over the top stuff, but is fun to watch
Viduthalai(Liberation), another Tamil movie
Agent Vinod - A Hindi spy-comedy movie

The anime that I like are Hunter x Hunter, Parasyte, Samurai Flamenco, Gintama.

RRR, this shit has everything. Great fights, cool story, great landscapes from all over India, amazing VFX and art direction. Great musical interludes too. Absolutely recommended.

Came to say this. The movie also won an Oscar for best original song.
