the hulk
city of god
requiem for a dream
snatch
Blow Out
Femme Fatale
Gangster No. 1
The Rules of Attraction
The Hulk sort of tops everything else in those regards.
Quote from: SoNowThenBlow Out
Femme Fatale
Gangster No. 1
Yes, yes!!
To these I would add:
Run Lola Run
carrie
Moulin Rouge and Fight Club.
Snatch
Natural Born Killers
CQ
OCEAN'S ELEVEN
BOOGIE NIGHTS
WILLY WONKA AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY
Oddly enough, I'd add the first Batman film to that list as well.
Punch-Drunk Love has some sweet camera angles. It uses various fades/dissolves/wipes as well.
I think the others that come to mind may have been listed.
Fight Club
Requiem for a Dream
Donnie Darko
Magnolia
SLC Punk

Damn, Bon Bon rocks!
I have a love hate relationship with this movie. I want to love it, but the way it was made makes me hate hate HATE it.
Velvet Goldmine has tons and tons of flashy camera stuff.
If you don't care about the movie sucking, "Bonfire of the Vanities" has a crapload of empty style in it.
edit: Oh, I just thought of another one. A good one. John Frankenheimer's "Seconds". There's things years ahead of their time in that movie, especially towards the end.
Boogie Nights
