Hard to argue with most of that list, my personal list would include the following in addition to most of that that list.. Hard to say only 25.

The King's Speech
Blazing Saddles
The Count of Monte Cristo
Anchorman
Oceans 11, 12, 13
GotG
Lion King
The Jungle Book
Aladdin
Robin Hood(Russell Crowe)
Fool's Gold
Reign of Fire
Get the Gringo

Edit: Tombstone, Book of Eli, and Super Troopers were all good calls.

Also, add Beerfest to my list. I almost literally can't not watch it if I see it on.

ran a survey that “asked people to list the five films they consider the most rewatchable.”


I just don't get this list. It's like whoever these people "surveyed" just listed what they think the best movies ever are.

When I think of the question in the OP, I think of a movie that no matter what, if I scroll across it on TV I"ll stop and watch it. GWTW is 4 fricking hours...no matter how classic and excellent of a movie it is there's no way it's the 5th "most rewatchable" movie ever.

I think something that's not too long, not too involved/intricate, and not too dramatic woudl probably be at the top. Back to the future would be a good choice.

They seem to think the most critically acclaimed movies are rewatchable. Not sure about that.


Agreed. Where are the dumb cheap comedies?

That's a pretty shite list if your goal is rewatchable movies. The chance of me stopping on a channel that has Wizard of Oz or Gone With the Wind on a random Sunday is close to zero.

Completely agree.

Where's The Rock? Idk if I've ever skipped over that movie if it's on. Rewatchable doesn't necessarily equal critical acclaim.

One of my favorite rewatch movies is " A Million Ways to Die in the West". Also, as mentioned earlier, "Fifth Element".

I have watched Karate Kid more than any other movie by FAR (easily a couple thousand times). I have a brother with downs and he watched this movie so much when we were kids by dad had to buy multiple VHS tapes over the years because they would physically wear out.

I rarely ever watch a movie more than once now.
