Probably the film I've watched most number of times. Can never get tired of the opening scene or the tavern scene.
Film Great films that you could only watch one time

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
Lets hope we 'skin you alive' on Sunday. That way you'll receive true martyrdom
Shawshank redemption, once was enough. Too long for a re-watch already knowing what's going to happen
Does that count as a great film?
I think the first one was. The sequels were utter shite though.
idi i smotri (Come and See).
I only watched a 12min video essay of it on YouTube and thought this is intense! Lost my appetite to watch the full thing let alone repeat watch it.

Requiem for a Dream. That overused song still gives me the shivers
The Green Mile - gut wrenching ending!
Two girls, one cup.
One time was more than enough.

Yeah I love that film. I could even watch it tripping.
Requiem for a dream (good shout, don’t think I’ve seen it again since I was 13)
Black Swan ( Never had a film hit me like that before)

The Road
Barry Lyndon
Schindler's list
Schindler's list
I can watch this repeatedly just for the incredible performance from Ralph Fiennes. He's deliciously evil.
Forrest Gump is what springs to mind straight away.
Now I have watched it more than once in my lifetime, but when I see it, although I know it's a good film, I never get the urge to just watch again

Yeah, I think it's one of the great performances. Göth is like a child, or at least very immature, for all his empty malice.
Once was more than enough. Especially if you were stoned during that one time.
feck I remember trying to watch this like 4 times while stoned and every time I fell asleep because weed just makes me sleepy.
Apocalypto is one of my favourites and I have only seen it once. I have no appetite to see apocalypse now or the godfather again and they are 'greats'.
Hunger - Great film centred on the Irish Republican prison hunger strikes. Michael Fassbender brilliant in it but I have no intention of watching it again.
Have you ever watched one guy, one cup?
I’ve been told about it, but no. Is it the one where a guy sticks a glass cup/bottle up his arse and then it breaks into pieces?
fecking hell, that just made me heave just thinking about it.
I think Ralph Fiennes was born deliciously evil. He seems to be type cast 9/10 and somehow it's always brilliant.
That's a shit film. And had to skip watch it.
That's the one!
In its genre.
The genre being shit films?
In this case literally.
John Wick. I can't be dealing with the bit about the dog at the start.
I watched that... then a little over a year ago decided to watch it again while tripping.
Absolutely riveting and yet so hard to sit through.
Irreversible a good shout. Antichrist too.
I'm not sure I've ever watched it all the way through. It's a great film in parts.
Last King of Scotland.
Fantastic movie but gets pretty painful to watch towards the end.

I barely rewatch movies, however some movies I love but I have no desire to rewatch are: Requiem for a dream, Schindler's list, Ikiru, Hachi: A dog's tale and Grave of the Fireflies.
I can't watch anything I can remember clearly, it's just boring knowing exactly what's about to happen.
If it's been a long enough then I don't mind rewatching anything.

Thought of another one. Winters Bone. Jennifer Lawrence is fantastic in it but John Hawkes who plays her uncle Teardrop is something else. Amazing performance from both and a fantastic film.
Good call.
Call Me by Your Name was great, I’d like to watch it again but I have so good memories seeing at the cinema with my wife I don't wanna spoil them.
Can't re-watch Leone's westerns. Once is enough.
