The point here is to be helpful to eddieschmit. He provided examples of films he considers entertaining and appropriate to high schoolers, who can be as young as 13. My teenage daughter Chelsea wouldn't find THE MIRROR entertaining and she is placed in gifted classes. Most parents I know would consider AMORES PERROS and several films mentioned above including LA HAINE inappropriate. AMELIE and RINGU are milder and definitely appropriate to high schoolers.
