Movies You Liked... But Never Want To See Again

[Jester]

Kids. I think it's Rosario Dawson's first film but since it's a movie about the warped sex lives of bored teens

Spoiler:

one of whom has AIDS and is unwittingly spreading it to young virgins he loves to deflower

it's a rough watch. It's so raw. The only reason I even watched it was it was mentioned in this book:

That movie was pretty f*cked up. And overrated as hell. I remember it came out when I was like 13, and it got so much hype (mostly from MTV and Rolling Stone, which are both still cool when you're 13) that I made a note to see it if I ever got the chance. Made the mistake of renting it with the wife one night; as soon as it was over she was like, "I really wish I could get those two hours back."

Not the worst thing I've seen but I didn't care much for it.

[Jester]

Yeah...kinda forgot the "movies you LIKED" bit when I posted it.

[RaphAndDonnie]

"The Wolverine" I liked it when I saw it in theaters. It was great. The action, the soundtrack... I might even pick it up on DVD when it comes out, if not to do anything but help complete my X-Men movie collection. But...I honestly could do without ever seeing it again.

It's a Wolverine movie with little continuity to the other movies. It's good for a one time view. Hell, none of the other X-Men even show up, except

Spoiler:

Jean in Logan's dreams. And Charles and Erik in the end credits.

Titantic I liked, but never care to see again.

There is probably a lot of movies I'll only like and see for only once in a lifetime. I guess it revolves around how much time chosen to spend on watching movies or doing something else.

[ObiWanFan4life]

I love the film Saving Private Ryan, but I don't think I'll be rushing to see it again.

[Ecto Jedi]

Surprised no one's mentioned Requiem for a Dream. Then again, I didn't much care for it.

[CyberCubed]

Pacific Rim. And yes, I'm being serious.

If I ever get an urge to watch the monster fighting scenes again there's always YouTube. The rest of the movie is throwaway.

[MikeandRaph87]

There is some truth to that. There are some great movies but I will get bored or not have the amazement held in the first and only viewing. I consider War Horse, The Patriot,Dr. Zhivago, and I Am Legend the four movies in that category atleast for me. I enjoyed each of them but I feel repeated viewing would lessen my appreciation of them and is best served as a one time only.

Slumdog Millionaire - a very deep, moving and painfully beautiful movie, but the things the characters go through are so emotionally exhausting you don't want to watch it over. It was in all rights a well made and entertaining film, but you have to be in the right mindset.

[Master Splinter]

The first movie that came to my mind is Kids. But that's how I feel about most of Larry Clark's movies.

Spoiler:

I can only watch some punk aids infested kid spread it around once.

I would watch Jennifer Connelly over and over again in that movie. Darren Aronofsky is one of my favorites.

I'm a Christian, but I couldn't help but laugh at that. Then again, I'm not really as strict as most Christians are.

As for me, I think I'd have to say Mona Lisa Smile, Saving Private Ryan, We Were Soldiers, and Pitch Perfect.

[The Clerk]

Red State. The only Kevin Smith film that I don't want to purchase. It was alright, well written, but thinking on how messed up people really are in this world I could do without the reminder lol

[ZariusTwo]

The Dark Knight.

I like to think the movie can still live up it's legend by seeing it just the one time, because I went to see DKR so many times that I began poking holes in it, same with Batman Begins too.

I've not seen it, but what you say is completely at odds with what others have said.

Wow, like minds much? I read the topic title and began thinking "okay, Passion of the Christ, Kids, Titanic..." Then read all your answers, lol. Okay then...

Might sound weird but as much as I loved Lord of the Rings, I haven't rewatched them since theatres. If I ever rewatched them I'd want to watch them all,and I just don't know if/when I'd ever want to do that again.

The Prophecy, which I'm afraid if I rewatch ill discover its nowhere near as good as I remembered.

[XERO]

Buried with Ryan Renolds. If Passion of the Christ was a 2 hour torture device, this would be 90 minutes of being in a f*ckin' box submerged in sand.

It was a intense yet amazing film, and one of Reynold's best performances, if not the best. If being stuck in a coffin manages to bring out the best in you emotionally, then that's gotta say something.

Still, it was a claustrophobic roller-coaster, with one of the most tragic, yet refined, endings I've ever seen.

I'd watch it once every blue moon, but not enough to go through the experience constantly. I haven't seen it in 2 years, actually.
