Crap or Classic?
You ever watched a movie for the first time and you either didnt like it, wasn't impressed or just downright hated it; but after having the opportunity of watching it again your opinion changed dramatically?
Or maybe the reverse...Can you name any?

Re: Crap or Classic?
For me...
Master and Commander - Russel Crowe.
Still cant figure out why, but the first time I watched it I was not very impressed. Reluctantly, I bought the DVD, watched it again and loved it!!!!
Watched it about 10 times since then.

Re: Crap or Classic?
I don't think I've had this experience because if i watch a movie I don't enjoy, I usually wouldn't watch it again.

Well, I am a collector of movies...mostly based on the actors.
Russel Crowe happens to be one of my favorite actors.
Also, the reviews were very good and I just felt the need to re=watch it to see why my own opiniuon was so different.

Who knows? Maybe one day I will eventually watch "American Gangsters" again.

Re: Crap or Classic?
LOL and maybe one day I'll watch it a FIRST time!!! Twice now I've set out to go see it and something doesn't work out.
There's only one movie I watched dozens of times and still love it. Tombstone.

Re: Crap or Classic?
I gave Forrest Gump a second chance...........I still dont get it. It's like a Woody Allen movie.......even Woody knows his movies arent worth salt.
