Whenever I want to brush up on my second language (Italian), I watch movies that feature the language, or movies with subtitles in the language. It doesn't do much for my pronunciation (which was never very good to begin with), but it helps a lot with understanding it in spoken form. I try to use the subtitles as a guide to understand what is being said rather than considering them a verbatim translation. I also listen to Italian rap--but that's more for giggles. :-)
