Napoleon dynamite pretty much sums it up. I intensely dislike the film but it's pretty indicative of the human condition.
District 9
If I could get away with a miniseries, James Burke's Connections.
Or Cunk on Earth. It's a toss-up.
Letting them know what mankind is all about seems like a terrible idea. We're jerks.
Hellraiser II
Wall-E. Sums it up pretty well
The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) - Literally telling aliens that we will fuck shit up.
Stalker (1979) - You can leave your garbage and we'll think it's treasure.
Dude, Where's My Car? (2000) - Humanity is really just a bunch of idiots, stumbling through everything.
Double Feature: Ender's Game (2013) and Starship Troopers (1997) - then we serve them a sumptuous shellfish tower to discuss their surrender over dinner.
Ender's Game was such a pile of shit (FYI, I love the book) even the anti-grav tag sequence couldn't absolve it. Swap it for District 9 and you're closer to the target - especially with the fookin' prawn dish.
Earth Girls Are Easy
Shawshank Redemption
Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.
βThe Final Memberβ
Itβs a documentary about the worlds first penis museum in Iceland trying to finally secure a human specimen
Half Baked
Schindler's list. Yeah aliens. It's like that. Go ahead and end us thx.
Magnolia
Fun fact: I have watched none of the movies listed here in the comments
Samsara
Fellowship, two towers, return of the king. Tell them it's one movie showing how the littlest person can make the biggest difference.
Nobody has mentioned porn. We try and say things in our great works of art but maybe they'd learn more from what we make when we're trying to say nothing at all.

Either point break or bad boys 2.
End of ze world.
They Shall Not Grow Old (2018) by Peter Jackson.
