Everyone has about the same answers here, and I agree with many, but I've got a weird one:
Super Size Me
Something about it just compels me. And it always makes me want McDonald's afterwards... I truly struggle to explain why.

"He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
Trivia: the guy was an recovering alcoholic and started to drink again - this is actually what can be seen throughout the documentary
I heard that he was an alcoholic during the experiment, hence why the doctors were baffled by the state of his liver after one month.
But that adds more to the mystery of why I like it - I never believed the food would do that to you in the first place
I rewatched Young Guns recently, and besides the fantastic nostalgia rush, I realized that I had only ever seen the edited for TV version
Real steel
Children of Men, The Boondock Saints, I Origins.
Used to be The Matrix as well, but I'm kind of over it now.

I have hyperfixation issues so just about any movie I like.
Reefer Madness (Musical), Prince of Egypt, Hunchback of Norte Dame, Marie Antoinette, Kiki's Delivery Service.
Surprised no one mentioned Memento.
I'd say that you HAVE to re-watch it to understand wtf is going on.
The big lebowski almost requires rewatching. It just gets funnier and funnier every time, there are so many little details and quotable lines. "Jackie Treehorn treats objects like women, man."
Thematically, you can watch the film through different lenses. I remember reading an article about the religious undertones - the dude as Buddha, Walter as Yahweh etc. Makes Jesus as a weird little pervert even funnier.
The Magic Sword (1962)
Pulp Fiction. Whenever I caught it on cable, I would always end up watching it to the end.
Usual Suspects.
Its really dumb, but Down Periscope.
Man of steel Batman V Superman UE Zack Snyder's Justice League The Dark Knight Trilogy Inception Interstellar Pulp Fiction Django Unchained
Groundhog Day, once a year.
I think I whistle the Pennsylvania Polka at least 5 times a week.
Taking of Pelham 123 is one of the most watchable movies I've seen. The original.
for quite a long time following the matrix i rewatched that shit so many times on so many different media that i could pretty much recite the entire movie. it's been quite a while now, so if i ever watched it again i would enjoy it just as much, but my ability to karaoke along would probably be down to 40-50% of the spoken lines.
the fight club is fun to rewatch couple times because you keep seeing new layers of foreshadowing.
up is always a joy, and a guarantee for me to cry twice. i was gonna say tear up but that shit hits me hard i can barely contain myself.
Red Line
Prometheus. Such a great movie!
We must be thinking of different films...
I know it gets lots of hate, but it's a visually stunning movie.
The production values are good, and it's generally entertaining, but I just can't cope with the gaps in logic and the seemingly deliberate attempts to make it conflict with the Alien films.
I'd rather re-watch the Red Letter Media review than the film itself.
