The 25 Most Rewatchable Movies of All Time

Monty Python's Holy Grail. You need to watch if a few times to pick up all the side jokes-like the Cat being used to beat clean a rug

Mel Gibson's The YEAR of LIVING DANGEROUSLY. one of the most underrated movies of all time where Linda Hunt won an oscar as a woman playing a male role. A young Mel Gibson is excellent in the film but the haunting beauty of Sigourney Weaver (the scene were she walks through the streets of Jakarta in the rain is mesmerizing) is what really steals this film

Klaus Kinski's Aguirre, Der Zorn Gottes (Aguirre, the Wrath of God). one of the greatest movies ever with a paranoid schizo playing a paranoid schizo in the rain forests of South America
 
side event-LEAST rewatchable film of all time (and this I mean a great film that I wouldn't want to see again)

Deer Hunter. too brutal-tough tough

Midnight Cowboy-maybe the most depressing movie I have ever seen

The Crow-the second most depressing movie I have ever seen
 
yeah one of the ten most beautifully filmed movies in history.

I find myself re-watching this movie every three or four years. I think it's the scenery that sucks me in. It's the only movie I can honestly say I've seen, I don't know, five or six times?

I have seen it at least a half dozen times-every few years

same with some of the others I mentioned
 
I agree with these suggestions:

Jeremiah Johnson
Alien
Predator
The Unforgiven

and would add (unless I missed them):

A Man Called Horse
Fargo
Heaven Can Wait

Heaven Can Wait is one I own but had completely forgotten about.

Burt Reynolds and Dom Deluise in The End
Young Frankenstein
Jaws
 
I don't see no Star Trek or Godzilla movies.
 
You mean the Sam Elliott Quick/Dead and not the Sharon Stone one, right?

No, no. Stone because Hackman is such a loveable prick in this movie.
 
I'll just list the movies that I have watched and rewatched numerous times:

Troy
Alien
Aliens
Alien Ressurction
Pirates of the Caribbean (all 4)
From Hell (Johnny Depp)
The Mark Of Zorro
Gladiator
Gettysburg
Tora Tora Tora
MIami Vice
Mutiny On The Bounty (Mel Gibson)
Apocalypse Now (director's longer cut)

Yes I will absolutely dispute the Lord Of The Rings Drivel.

I walked out of the theater during the first movie and didn't go back.

What a waste of time and worse of all money.

I assume you never read the books.
 
I've watched Titanic, Star Wars (my fave as a kid!!!), Shawshank, Grease, and Goodfellas several times over. The others that I can watch anytime are the Color of Money and Nobody's Fool, both with Paul Newman. And just about anything with Eddie Murphy before 1990.

:agree: with you on the Eddie Murphy movies; and I would add The Ten Commandments for sheer grandeur and special effects; and definitely all the Indiana Jones movies - Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of Doom, The Last Crusade, and Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Interestingly, someone pointed out to me recently that Kasich, Ohio Governor and a GOP contender for POTUS in 2016, looks enough like Harrison Ford to be his brother! hmmmm....
 
I like many of those, especially Shawshank.

Some of my personal favorites that never get old:

Annie Hall

Little Big Man

Good Morning Vietnam

Field of Dreams

Dances with Wolves

Sleeper (very funny)

12 Angry Men

The Guns of Navarone

The Dead Zone

Oops, this reminds me I forgot Woody Allen, and would have to add: (haven't seen most of the others)

Sleeper
Annie Hall
Match Point

Hey Pg *hug*

I like the Indiana Jones movies as well! Looks like he's in the new Star Wars movie too. :darthgunny I've never seen the Ten Commandments although just about everyone else has and I see a slight resemblance between Kasich and Ford.
