I just realized I've never seen or heard of a Chinese movie. Not just filmed in China but also written and produced by a Chinese company. Is there any good one with English dub or sub ?

So many, I'll lump in HK and Taiwanese films as well but note they are a bit distinct.

Yi Yi (masterpiece) In the Mood for Love (masterpiece) Infernal Affairs 1 & 2 (inspiration for Departed by Scorsese) Youth (2016, nostalgic, mainlander friend thought it was ok however I found the arc of the protagonist to be splendid) Chungking Express (really hits on vibes of solitude, connection, and moving on)

Those are the first that come to mind, there are many many more.

EDIT: Red Cliff is an epic, think historical Lord of The Rings set during a significant battle in the Three Kingdoms Period.
