I have two that are equally great on two completely different levels. There are so many other great directors out there, but these two are consistently the first directors I mention when asked about movies.

1. Chan-wook Park
Films:
Sympathy for Lady Vengeance
Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance
"Cut" (From the Movie "Three Extremes")
Oldboy (My absolute favorite movie)
The Humanist (He Co-wrote the screenplay for this but did not direct, another incredible South Korean director/writer (Mu-yeong Lee) did this movie and inspired Chan-wooks camera techniques and shooting style)
Joint Security Area
Judgement (Short movie that makes you question the value of life. I have not been able to find a retail copy of this, just a crappy online rip)

2. Fernando Meirelles
Films:
City of Men (TV Series, not based on the characters from City of Men, but Fernando's other movie "Golden Gate: Palace 2". The lead characters were both in City of God as well)
The Constant Gardener
City of God (My absolute second favorite movie)
