Though I'd have to also nominate Four Brothers in the morally awful category as well.
I really enjoyed watching Wanted, though it was ridiculous. And the morality was rather repugnant, though that's coming from a moral relativist. Anyway, I was visually entertained but my intelligence felt insulted. Heh. I did enjoy hearing a new pop song by Danny Elfman.

I remember seeing the preview for Night Watch, which contained no dialogue, but something visual prompted me to say, "Is this Russian?! Is this a Russian horror film?!" The movie did not disappoint and was both visually arresting and complex, and the subtitles were both functional and gorgeously integrated into the film. I also haven't seen the 2nd or 3rd films, nor have I read the trilogy on which they are based.
