Film Films you enjoyed but never watched again

[esmufc07]

Inception and Inglorious Basterds would be two that spring to mind. Watched both in the cinema and thought they were excellent but never got around to them again.

Any films you have seen and enjoyed but never bothered to go back to?

 

[horsechoker]

Uncut Gems

It only came out last year but I don't know how it will be to watch it again. Maybe better because it will be less anxiety inducing

I watched it for a second time, with a mate that hadn’t seen it.

The difference was huge. I could feel the anxiety radiating off her. I still felt it, but knowing how it ends definitely lessened it.

 

[Shane88]

Requiem for a Dream. Not something for the rewatch list.

 

[SteveJ]

Schindler's List. Too harrowing.

 

[shabz]

Shutter Island, Avatar to name a couple. I feel like there are quite a few that fall into that category for me.

 

[Ish]

The life of David Gale. The Green Mile.

 

[paulscholes18]

Coco, fantastic movie

 

[Rado_N]

Coco, fantastic movie

My wife absolutely loves that movie, and cries like a baby every time she watches it.

 

[Raw]

The Irishman. Really enjoyed it but I doubt I'll ever set aside 3.5 hours to watch it again.

 

[esmufc07]

Schindler's List. Too harrowing.

Indeed but it’s precisely why I watch it every year around the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. Never fails to bring me to tears. Ralph Fiennes does a quite terrifying job of his portrayal of Amon Goeth.

 

[SteveJ]

Fiennes is superb, yeah. I just cannot watch it again though.

 

[VorZakone]

Once Upon a Time in America, and Once Upon a Time in the West.

 

[OleBoiii]

Grave Of The Fireflies

 

[Ramos]

Martyrs
The Road
Beasts of No Nation

 

[Pink Moon]

The Pianist.

I thought it was absolutely fantastic but for one reason or another I've just never gotten round to it again.

 

[Copa Mundial]

Gran Torino is definitely a movie I need to see again.

 

[a_devil_inside]

Cast Away
Forrest Gump
Braveheart

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Every film I’ve enjoyed since about 2005.

Don’t know how anyone finds the time to rewatch films these days. I can’t keep on top of new releases.

 

[Vidyoyo]

What Pogue said.

 

[Volumiza]

The Irishman. Really enjoyed it but I doubt I'll ever set aside 3.5 hours to watch it again.

I nearly put this but thought I’d rather put it in the ‘Films you thought were overly long boring shite films that you’d never watch again’ thread.

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

I enjoyed 21 Bridges, for me a solid cops and robbers popcorn flick elevated by a few A-listers in the cast. I certainly don't need a second viewing though.

Get in the wood chipper.

 

[Volumiza]

Get in the wood chipper.

 

[Old Ma Crow]

The English Patient
The Madness of King George
The Kings Speech
Rain man

 

[Volumiza]

Requiem for a Dream. Not something for the rewatch list.

I actually wish I could unwatch this.

 

[SteveJ]

The English Patient
The Madness of King George
The Kings Speech
Rain man

I didn't mind the film but how on earth did Juliette Binoche win an Oscar for her performance? Sheesh...

 

[esmufc07]

Gran Torino is definitely a movie I need to see again.

Ah yeah that's another one. Escape from Alcatraz too.

 

[Old Ma Crow]

I didn't mind the film but how on earth did Juliette Binoche win an Oscar for her performance? Sheesh...

Almost as surprising as how well Kevin Costner did with the epically dull Dances with Wolves.

 

[Gambit]

SALO. 120 days of Sodom. Although to say I enjoyed it might not be accurate. Impressed, yes, horrified to the core also yes.

 

[UnrelatedPsuedo]

I only rewatch average/bad movies I think.

I’ve probably seen ‘The Core’ more times than any other movie.

 

[SirAF]

Cast Away
Forrest Gump
Braveheart

Those are a must rewatch!

 

[Sassy Colin]

Christiana F

I'd love to see it again, must get round to it sometime. Great Bowie soundtrack too.

 

[SteveJ]

Almost as surprising as how well Kevin Costner did with the epically dull Dances with Wolves.

I've watched that twice and yet have forgotten literally everything that happened in it.

 

[Cheimoon]

Every film I’ve enjoyed since about 2005.

Don’t know how anyone finds the time to rewatch films these days. I can’t keep on top of new releases.

This absolutely. Lots of films I would love to watch and take more time for, but these days, I am often happy if I get to watch part of a film while paying bills online...

 

[FrankDrebin]

Every MARVEL film. Enjoyable yet forgettable.

 

[Old Ma Crow]

I've watched that twice and yet have forgotten literally everything that happened in it.

You must have been catching up on your sleep.

 

[nimic]

The Road. Grim as feck.

 

[DrRodo]

Lala land

I mean, is there any reason to ever watch that again?
