For me, it’s either the Matrix or Pulp Fiction. I have seen both a lot of times but certainly not more often than say a dozen times.

I gotta go with Primer because it pretty much is necessary to re-watch it multiple times to understand what is going on.

Just saw Primer for the first time, so I'm gonna need to preemptively answer: Primer.

Ooooh I completely forgot Primer!

A Silent Voice, really beautiful movie about bullying and redemption. I watched it a few years ago when I was in a really bad place, and it helped me a lot.

Gangs of Wasseypur. It's a 5-hour movie, split into two parts. But really, it's just one epic story. I've watched it countless number of times. While in college, me and my mates would get high and watch this movie. I've probably watched it with most of my friends at least once.

Two other movies that come close are Pulp Fiction and Bhooter Bhobishyot.

It's a Wonderful Life. Every year on Christmas, and every year I can relate with George just a little bit more. I've even seen a stage version of it love!

[–] MrPoopyButthole@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

"Hot Rod", "Accepted", or "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"

[–] RedC@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Drive Thru. It's a B rate slasher horror flick. Highly entertaining and always a recommendation.

[–] ao4571@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

There are few of them for me, but maybe Warrior (2011) is the favourite go to movie for me. If I'm overwhelmed by anything, it helps me reset myself and put things in perspective and get me in the mindset to fight back and stay strong.

[–] Revolutionary_Pi@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Definitely the Avatar movie, I mean the blue ones not TLA. I watched it when it came out, watched it several times with my family and friends. Lastly I watched it at IMAX, was a fantastic experience. Sadly second movie did not live up to my expectations.

[–] manwithabox@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Grumpy Old Men:)

[–] Im28xwa@lemdro.id 2 points 1 year ago

Maybe Thor Ragnarok

[–] ClaretNBlue@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

American History X, Pulp Fiction, Heat.. I could go on and on

Surely you can't be serious.

I am serious, and don't call me Shirley.

These are the movies on the top of my head I've watched more than 20 times.

  • Batman: Dark knight
  • Orange clockwork, Eyes wide shut, Dr. Strangelove
  • Before sunrise and before sunset. Third one is kinda cringe.
  • Shawshank Redemption

Freddy got fingered, to the point a friend and me could retell the whole movie word for word.

[–] dadasdair@infosec.pub 2 points 1 year ago

Alien, Aliens and Predator. The Big Lebowski and the John Wick films are gaining traction more recently.

[–] R3tl3f@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

For me it Lord of the Rings and/or Harry Potter. Can't count how often I watched these masterpieces.
