What do you think is the most rewatchable movie?

Postby Everlong » Nov 20, '14, 3:26 pm

For me, the best things to watch over and over are usually comedies or light adventure movies. I've probably watched Raiders of the Lost Ark at least a few dozen times just because it's so easy to put on and enjoy over and over again. Or a goofy comedy like Happy Gilmore, I can just put on and know I'm always going to laugh.

What about ya'll?

Die Hard never gets old for me, especially 1 and 3. I agree on Raiders of the Lost Ark too, though I always thought the Last Crusade was the best and most enjoyable Indiana Jones film.

Jurassic Park is always rewatchable too. Awesome film.

I tend to go back and forth on Raiders and Last Crusade, they're both tons of fun. But Raiders has the awesome face melting scene and the standoff with the samurai in the bazaar, a couple of my favorite scenes ever :tim

The Replacements. Going along with Tim's idea. Kinda cheesy comedy that's just a lot of fun.

I can't think of many of the top of my head. However, I am currently watching White Men Can't Jump. Whenever it's on TV, I always watch it. Must of seen it over a couple of dozen times now. Don't know how everyone else feels about that movie but I never get tired of it.

Re: What do you think is the most rewatchable movie?

Many films come to mind.

The Big Lebowski - perhaps the most endlessly rewatchable and quotable of all works. Of course, this is all because of its amazingly well-written screenplay which manages to stack so much subtle wit and humour so seamlessly. The same can be applied for two other remarkably enjoyabled Coen brother films - Burn After Reading, which is simply a hilarious masterwork, and Fargo.

Brazil - this is Gilliam at, arguably, his most satirical and entertaining. It's a perfect blend of dystopian science-fiction and black, Monty Pythonesque comedy.

Bloodsport - Van Damme kicking ass for an hour and a half. What is better? It's got some surprisingly well-choreographed fight sequences and perhaps the epitome 80s martial art soundtrack.

Yojimbo & Sanjuro - Kurosawa knew how to make an action film, and these two are perhaps the best Japanese cinema has to offer in that regard. It has wit, it has kick ass action, and it has iconically memorable characters and moments. You really can't go wrong with it.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day - say what you will about Cameron, but he knows how to craft a technically impeccable action work. This just has it all. And, yet, more than that, still remains human and devoted to its characters at its core.

The King of Comedy - I'd say this is Scorsese's most rewatchable film purely because of confident, speedy dialogue, and De Niro's remarkably disturbing performance. It's also a fascinating film to pick apart and analyse, thematically, and you discover many new things on subsequent viewings.

The School of Rock - I went through a period of watching this film excessively at one stage. It has the music, it has the jokes, and it has Jack Black acting like a clown. It's a fun film, and further solidifies the sheer versatility of Linklater as a filmmaker.

The Terminal - One of Spielberg's most criminally overlooked films. This is a sentimental love letter (yes, @Chewy, I know you hate that term) to the screwball comedies of the 1950s. Not only is Tom Hanks endearingly good, but the film has such a cogent and energetic nature to it. So many beautiful long takes and crane shots. Such a wonderfully delightful film, really.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles - this is one of the few films that constantly leaves me with a smile and a good mood. It's a wonderfully kindhearted film and just a testament to John Hughes' humanity as a filmmaker. It, too, by far, spawns Steve Martin and John Candy at their very best, as well.

Collateral - there is something enigmatically rewatchable about this film, but I can't put my finger on why that is exactly. Perhaps its beautiful digital photography or its unique late-night LA setting? Or maybe because the characters of Curise and Foxx are written with such nuance and depth that you can't help but be drawn in.

Buffalo '66 - A wonderful tale of letting go and trying to find happiness. There is something strangely relatable and real about this film, and this is probably why I find it extremely rewatchable.

Sideways - a cross-country adventure that consists of social misfits, wine drinking, and a filmmaker by the name of Alexandar Payne? I'm in. This is a truly fun film.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty - this is an incredibly entertaining work. Despite it only being released last year, I've already seen it a good 4-5 times. Alluring photography, a surprisingly different Ben Stiller for a change, and a cute little story at its heart.

Meet the Parents - this was on television last night, actually, and I just couldn't help but watch it. It's just a film that works because it is never too crude with its humour or too cringeworthy with its drama. A nice balance, and an infinitely rewatchable film because of that.

Toy Story 1, 2 and 3 - I grew up with the first two films and there is a reason why I constantly revisit them. They're simply fantastic films that stand the test of time.

Punch-Drunk Love - a sharp, endearing 90 minute romcom, written and directed with such flair and energy and self-awareness. It's like the screwball comedy Stanley Kubrick never made. I watch this at least 3 times every year.

Up in the Air - this is a wonderfully fast-moving and snappy film. Reitman crafted something amazingly rewatchable, primarily because of how well-written and performed George Clooney's character is. I saw it for the first time last year and have given it a small handful of viewings since.

I'm sure there are many, many others too.
