Schizopolis, The Limey, and Full Frontal are probably my favs, but I like his admirable failures too, like Girlfriend Experience and Good German. I've watched all these several times.
Plus he shoots and cuts everything himself. He's a good dude who makes solid entertainments.
And unless you're having an emergency and you need a youtube video to help you solve it, I'm not sure what a "must watch" is.
Anyway, he's better than Kevin Smith. Hell, he's funnier than Kevin Smith.

I have lots of respect for Soderbergh and would say I at least like pretty much everything I've seen by him. But I am still waiting for the wow moment.
