Are there movies to which you can't say no? You know, movies you've seen a million times, but will watch for the millionth and one time, just because you love them so? I'm not talking about true cinematic masterpieces (like Cinema Paradiso or Casablanca), just movies that suck you in, and that you can't resist watching over and over.
Here are 10 of mine, in no particular order. I've seen each of these so many times I can practically recite every word, but they never get old.
1. Sideways
2. Dumb and Dumber
3. Love Actually
4. The Departed
5. As Good As It Gets
6. Good Will Hunting
7. Romeo and Juliet (the Leo/Claire Danes version)
8. When Harry Met Sally (and pretty much anything Nora Ephron)
9. Lost in Translation
10. Bridget Jones's Diary
Which movies make your list?
My all time favorite is The Shawshank Redemption. Others are The Goonies, Indiana Jones, Forest Gump, Star Wars, Requiem for a Dream, Good Will Hunting, Predator, Rocky, & The Human Centipede! !!
