Rewatchable means there maybe something not seen the first time, or there is a deeper meaning to the movie that you need to rewatch and smoke some herb to understand the entire artwork. Or…its hilarious and you have to rewatch it over again to catch all the genius of the creator. So without further ado…
Coherence (2013) - IMDb - Strange things begin to happen when a group of friends gather for a dinner party on an evening when a comet is passing overhead. What makes it rewatchable? Its my favorite movie of all time. There are so many moving parts, a rewatch is a must. After the 4th watch, I knew I was hooked. Still havent found all the information.
Friday (1995) - IMDb - Two homies, Smokey (Chris Tucker) and Craig Jones (Ice Cube), smoke a dope dealer's weed and try to figure a way to get the two hundred dollars they owe to the dealer by 10 p.m. that same night. What makes it rewatchable? So many catch phrases, so many references we now use commonly, if you dont rewatch, your friends everyone on the planet will know.
Idiocracy (2006) - IMDb - Private Joe Bauers, the definition of "average American", is selected by the Pentagon to be the guinea pig for a top-secret hibernation program. Forgotten, he awakes five centuries in the future. He discovers a society so incredibly dumbed down that he's easily the most intelligent person alive. What makes it rewatchable? So funny! Legendary comedians work with the creator of Beavis and Butthead, not to mention, this was the second film, ironically the first movie made this list, too.
Us (2019) - IMDb - A family's serene beach vacation turns to chaos when their doppelgängers appear and begin to terrorize them. What makes it rewatchable? This movie is basically a bunny with a basket, dropping easter eggs every few minutes. Plot points are hard to notice as well, so watch the commentary, comb YouTube, then watch again, and again.
Life (1999) - IMDb - In 1932, two strangers are wrongfully convicted and develop a strong friendship in prison that lasts them through the 20th century. What makes it watchable? Martin Lawrence and Eddie Murphy doing whatever they want, it gets really hard to stop laughing here.
Office Space (1999) - IMDb - Three company workers who hate their jobs decide to rebel against their greedy boss. What makes it watchable? This is the mold that was created. Great actors, great plot, and a double dose of Mr. Scarface. It spans time, still very funny, and a must rewatch. Together, Office Space and Idiocracy can be rewatched to infinity as a set, which they actually are.
Life (2017) - IMDb - A team of scientists aboard the International Space Station discover a rapidly evolving life form that caused extinction on Mars and now threatens all life on Earth. What makes it rewatchable? The creature follows a natural evolutionary life cycle. Its starts with one cell, then grows as as a species would over millions of years, its awesome.
Superbad (2007) - IMDb - Two co-dependent high school seniors are forced to deal with separation anxiety after their plan to stage a booze-soaked party goes awry. What makes it watchable? McLovin. Yes there is a lot more, but its McLovin, no first name, no last, just McLovin. Theres also the still-fat Jonah Hill, and Jessie Eisenburg, perhaps my favorite actor to be Lex Luthor. Did I mention Seth Rogan as the cop that lets the kid get the beer, lol funny.
Coming to America (1988) - IMDb - An extremely pampered African Prince travels to Queens, New York, and goes undercover to find a wife that he can respect for her intelligence and will. What makes it watchable? Eddie Murphy has made many good movies. This is his pennicle. His Mona Lisa. How many times did you look at that picture? Anyways, he’s got about 4–7 charachters, and this is not the family friendly “Clumps.” Sexual Chocolate! (drops mic)
Chappie (2015) - IMDb - In the near future, crime is patrolled by a mechanized police force. When one police droid, Chappie, is stolen and given new programming, he becomes the first robot with the ability to think and feel for himself. What makes it watchable? Its Wolverene and Sigorney Weaver. Seriously, this robot goes through the normal life cycle. You can watch its mind grow up the same as a human will. It goes through all of the mental stages, complete with a concience character that must die, before he becomes mature. Eventually, he questions his maker, and this thing goes to a whole new level. Oh, and to see Hugh Jackman get thrashed is purely classic.
Obviously there are many others, heres one that you can try, Death at a Funeral has a white people version staring the hilarious Andy Tudyk, and a black people version staring, Chris Rock. Back to Back baby! Other super movies, that you MUST rewatch, Honorable Mentions Time Lapse, Triangle (2009) - IMDb, Serenity (2005) - IMDb T









his is my movie barometer, it gets 100, then everything else is graded on a curve. Its not rewtchable, since I memorized it by now.
Cube (1997) - IMDb - 6 complete strangers of widely varying personality characteristics are involuntarily placed in an endless maze containing deadly traps
