From Uncut Gems to Requiem for a Dream, these 10 movies are all great, but Reddit users think they are too much to watch twice.
When it comes to revisiting a film one has previously seen, the top choices are frequently those that feature lighthearted plots, comedic aspects, and relatable characters. Sometimes, it also happens that a movie is so difficult to wrap one's head around that a second viewing is mandatory.
9 'Joker' Starring Joaquin Phoenix in an Oscar-winning performance, Todd Phillips' Joker provides audiences with a refreshing and somewhat disturbing take on the character. Set in the early 1980s Gotham City, the film follows aspiring stand-up comedian Arthur Fleck as he slowly descends into madness and turns to a life of crime and chaos.
This intense flick by the Safdie Brothers' is no joke; it can be incredibly hard to sit through during a first viewing, not to mention during a rewatch. According to joseph4th, "It was really well written and Adam was robbed by the Oscars, but it was also punishing in a way. It just kept slowly twisting this underlying tension that I did realize it was doing so that end really landed with a [full-on] brutal punch.
6 'Martyrs' As many would agree, Martyrs is the kind of disturbing viewing experience you don't want to undergo twice. The distressing film by Pascal Laugier centers on a young woman's dangerous journey for revenge with a friend who has also experienced child abuse. She seeks payback against the individuals who abducted and mistreated her when she was a child."Despite its gruesome nature that movie will stick with anyone who watches it.
4 'Manchester by the Sea' In Manchester by the Sea, a rugged handyman returns to his New England birthplace to care for his 16-year-old nephew after the passing of his brother . However, his return also reveals his troubled background. Although Steven Spielberg's film is considered a masterpiece, many people understandably can't bring themselves to watch it again due to the obscure themes it tackles. Nevertheless, some users on the platform still believe it to be worth seeing for a second time, which is the case of calvincouch911: "I love Schindler’s List and have seen it [four] or [five] times. It’s a tough watch but it’s also very inspiring and [life-affirming]," the user wrote.
