It's heavy, but very well made and acted. It contains by far one of my favorite Robin Williams performances, shared with Genie from Aladdin and Sean Maguire from Good Will Hunting. Williams greatly excelled at playing the teacher/mentor type. I give the movie a strong recommendation.John Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08810774557887719483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-46275632196070969602016-01-21T16:11:24.649-06:002016-01-21T16:11:24.649-06:00I usually only revisit movies I like.

But there is another scenario, which I'll call "well I've got this coupon." it happens when Regal sends be a coupon that expires in 2 days, and I guess I'll see Dark Knight Rises again.

Another reason not listed is to watch a movie from the perspective of a supporting or second-lead character: <i>Prometheus</i> from David's perspective, <i>Edge of Tomorrow</i> from Rita's perspective, and <i>Sicario</i> from Alejandro's perspective.Ivannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-25352916568773633262016-01-21T09:55:30.677-06:002016-01-21T09:55:30.677-06:00Yup, I hear you there.

The only movies I saw twice were Mad Max and Star Wars. I really want to see the Hateful Eight in 70mm again but I may have to settle for the second run theater in a few weeks because the distance is too far.

I watched it between 8 and 10 times and loved it on every occasion. There were lots of personal troubles going on in my life that the movie reflected more or less, so every screening was an emotional rollercoaster for me.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-712748910071016542016-01-21T08:09:54.035-06:002016-01-21T08:09:54.035-06:00I remember seeing Blimp a bunch of times, just to ...I remember seeing Blimp a bunch of times, just to scream out "That's gotta hurt!" during the climatic explosion in the end.
