Under Siege. Has to be a classic and on DVD you won't have it going all fuzzy as the old VHS from the corner shop used to go at THAT moment as it used to back when we were students with a case of Super Bock to drink.
Kill Bill
Tarantinos "Dusk till Dawn" is a laugh. Usual ultra violence, with a twist.
Actually Dog Soldiers might just about be the best thing on here!
Boys night has been happening every thursday night for eleven years, hence almost all the above films have been watched.

OK, give us a list of the 572 films you've seen so far, and we can recommend some new ones. 😀
How about House of 1000 Corpses or The Devils Rejects? Both good for a laugh with a beer.
No-one's mentioned Kelly's Heroes- what has the world come to?
Three Kings.
rogg, we don't always watch a film, but often do. Not much that is good slips through the net, but I've noted a few down from the replies, mesrine for one. We seem to be watching them faster than they can make them.

I know, it's easy to do, especially with the crap being churned out right now (Battleships, anyone?)
And not many of the suggestions above really qualified as 'hidden gems' did they?
How about:
A Prophet (French)
Sin Nombre (Mexican)
The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (maybe a bit slow for boys night, but worth a watch)
Elite Squad (Brazil)
Commando?
The Expendables
The Bill and Ted films - Excellent!
Then Waynes World
I've seen a prophet and of course commando (classic boys night fodder), is the Expendables worth a watch?
Definitely seek out District 13. And watched Ip Man a couple of weeks ago on FilmFour, brilliant kung-fu film, highly recommended.
Zombie An*l Nun Killers III
if you can read, 36 (French) is absolute quality.
The first Matrix film
Collateral
Batman Dark Knight
The Lost Boys
The Taking of Pelham 123 (the original)
Goodfellas.
Just remembered. Don't think anyone has mentioned Heat.
The bank shootout in surround sound makes you feel like you have to take cover under the coffee table.
