Re: Three star films with five star replay value

I'm also thinking Spies Like Us and Three Amigos. I wouldn't call them top tier comedy films (the stars of each have done better -- except maybe Martin Short) but damn if I don't enjoy watching them.

I also must admit I have a strange soft spot for Ackroyd's Doctor Detroit. Not a good movie, but again if it's on, I'm watching it.

Innerspace would definitely make my list in this thread.

For me Lord of Illusions. I know it's kind of cheesy but I totally love it every time I watch it (and I watch it pretty regularly).

these 2 and Cobra, would the Golden Child count? for some reason, that movie even if its being showned in the spanish stations forces me to watch it. Also for me and I just don't know why. I've tried to figure it out many times but I'm not sure why I can't resist it when on cable and stuff but Can't Hardly Wait too. I don't know if these are considered 5 star ones by anyone.

I almost posted both of those earlier in the thread, but they are so damn funny I wouldn't consider either of them a 3 star film. It's hard to find a 5 Star Comedy.

I'd say the extended cut of Lethal Weapon is a five star action movie.

My Best Friends Girl with Dane Cook, a lot of people here seem to hate him, but this is one very funny flick, that I can watch over and over.

Re: Three star films with five star replay value

I think and 80s action films (Norris, van Damme, Stallone, Schwarzenegger) and anything by Seagal of course.

It's on right now, and while not great, its defintely a nice little flick to have on in the background. Kim Basinger

Beer League

I always end up watching it when I see it on Comedy Central. I don't know why.

The Negotiator

I never intend to own it, but I seem to catch it several times a year on TBS (they must air it every weekend). I don't think I've even seen the beginning of the movie because I don't ever make a point of watching it. I just always end up catching it when I'm flipping the channels and stick with it until the end.

Re: Three star films with five star replay value

Since Die Hard is a five-star movie, I'll go Die Hard 2, which I've fast-forwarded through multiple times. And +1 on Basinger.
