Pulp Fiction. Whenever I caught it on cable, I would always end up watching it to the end.

Surprised no one mentioned Memento.

I'd say that you HAVE to re-watch it to understand wtf is going on.

[-] Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago

Gattaca. It's just such a well made film.

The big lebowski almost requires rewatching. It just gets funnier and funnier every time, there are so many little details and quotable lines. "Jackie Treehorn treats objects like women, man."

Thematically, you can watch the film through different lenses. I remember reading an article about the religious undertones - the dude as Buddha, Walter as Yahweh etc. Makes Jesus as a weird little pervert even funnier.

for quite a long time following the matrix i rewatched that shit so many times on so many different media that i could pretty much recite the entire movie. it's been quite a while now, so if i ever watched it again i would enjoy it just as much, but my ability to karaoke along would probably be down to 40-50% of the spoken lines.

the fight club is fun to rewatch couple times because you keep seeing new layers of foreshadowing.

up is always a joy, and a guarantee for me to cry twice. i was gonna say tear up but that shit hits me hard i can barely contain myself.

I rewatched Young Guns recently, and besides the fantastic nostalgia rush, I realized that I had only ever seen the edited for TV version

[-] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 day ago

Agree with many others here. Also: Aliens, Terminator 2, True Lies, Bad Boys, The Naked Gun, Top Secret!, Hot Shots: Part Deux, Deadpool 1-3

[-] Symphonic@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Heck yeah! Hot shots is so good

[-] Sarothazrom@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

The 1993 Super Mario Bros.

As campy and crappy as it is, it never fails to put a smile on my face and make me laugh, that movie rules.

[-] exanime@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

I watch V for Vendetta every November

I have watched SnowPiercer at least 6 times (and yes, I totally belive it is a sequel to Willy Wonka)

[-] androogee@midwest.social 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Taking of Pelham 123 is one of the most watchable movies I've seen. The original.

[-] Travelator@thelemmy.club 1 points 1 day ago

Groundhog Day, once a year.

Porch Rosso and some other ghibli movies I guess.

I would have said ponyo or maybe spirited way.

[-] fosscats@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

[-] garibaldi_biscuit@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

This is a must watch every day.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 65 points 2 days ago

5th Element.

One of, if not the best action flick of all time.

[-] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

I submit both Crank and Crank 2 as the best, most self-aware action movies of all time.

[-] OopsOverbombing@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Shoot em up should be on that list imo

Die Hard and Galaxy Quest.

The pacing of these movies is great. There's really no part of either I'd fast forward.

  • Naked Gun
  • Airplane!
  • Men in Tights
  • Down Periscope
  • La Soupe aux choux (Cabbage Soup from Louis de Funes)
  • Oscar

Yeah, the last one is oddly popular in my country. No clue why. Must be something in the water.

[-] schmalls@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Down Periscope for sure!

"Alien" (1979) still gets me every time I watch it. The slow build, the pops of horror, the delectable suspense of the Big Chap hunting. I know every scare, every moment of terror, every death by heart... but it still gets my circulatory system going. All other home invasion/haunted house movies can go home, Alien nailed it.
