Yeah, majority of the films become lackluster after you view them more than once.
I watch most of the movies once in the cinema. I only have a very, very small library of movies.
But those movies are keepers for me.
Some of them namely:
Shawshank Redemption
V for Vendetta
Star Wars (original trilogy)
The Lord of The Rings (trilogy)
Ben Hur
The Exorcist
Himala (Filipino film)

My advice: watch more quality films. I like The Prestige just as much as the next guy, but there are plenty of incredible films out there that are just as good each time you view them.
No. For any film that relies solely on storytelling, only The Prestige is able to deliver so well on subsequent viewings. I've seen all of the quality films out there, and aside from the action, comedy, horror based films etc., which usually retain their genre specific merits on subsequent viewings (expanding on that, if someone finds a horror movie scary the first time they see it, it will likely have that same effect the second and third time etc..., or a fight scene or car chase will likely thrill the audience every time they watch it, or a comedy will likely have moments that people will find funny regardless of how many times they have seen it), no film but the Prestige manages to deliver so well on further viewings.
nah, I think movies are better watched even the second time around. There always seems to be little "somethings" that catch your eye that you may not have noticed the first time around
I buy lots of films on the account that at any time I'll be in a mood to watch a particular film and I'll pull it out to suit my tastes. I can watch films over, and over again and not lose that same enojyment I did the first time around be that film Goodfellas or Night At The Museum.
since this thread has been bumped again thought I would post this again in hopes that someone sees it.I always tell people if they are only going to see one more movie in their lifetime,make it JFK.since that movie came out,I have never looked at the united states of america the same way I used to when growing up.
It all depends on who you are. There are probably 30-50 movies that I have seen multiple times. For example, I have seen Tropic Thunder 3 times, and it hasn't gotten old yet. I once saw Little Nicky about 3 times in 1 day. That movie is golden!
Also, something people haven't brought up - there are movies that DESERVE to be watched multiple times/movies that you gain more from or pick up new things from on subsequent viewings.
Its really nice query be started i really appreciated to you -Recently i watched online harry potter and the half blood prince movie which seem to be amazing so i would be like to watch this movie again and again.
I have yet to see that movie.
I have watched V for Vendetta probably as often as that and personally, I think the 4th or 5th time was the best with that movie. Once you have grasped all the minor events, it's just magnificent to watch again. And agian. And again.
I am just an amateur movie watcher, but I find the way the movie pieces itself together graceful and satisfying.
dont see how thats possible knowing everything you werte told in history class growing up was a bunch of lies and the movie is far more accurate to the truth.
I am not agreed that it is become boring watching same film again. Do people listen a good song only once? obviously not . Like that which movie touches your heart, you will like to watch it again and again.
Here is a small list of movies i watch again and again when i get leisure,
Some movies are forever and have some touchy concepts which forces us to watch it again and again. I have seen titanic many times but i dn't feel bored.
can watch same movie again after a certain gap...we surely miss things when we watch it for first time...depends on the movie also...if the person is in film-making then he has to watch it more than once to grasp every detail of it...
