10 Genius Ways Movies Made You Rewatch Them
10. To Watch With Knowledge Of The Twist - Fight Club/The Usual Suspects/The Sixth Sense
This goes for basically any movie with a shockingly entertaining twist, because if a film manages to bamboozle audiences with an all-timer rug-pull, it's pretty much required viewing to quickly watch the picture again with the full context of its story.
Take Fight Club. Watching it with the prior knowledge of who Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) is, completely changes the experience in a totally fascinating way. Similarly, knowing what's coming in The Usual Suspects or The Sixth Sense forces you to engage with the movie in entirely different terms.
Though some lesser "twist movies" don't offer up much reason for a second viewing - especially if the twist feels tacked-on or strains the bounds of the narrative's credibility - the better ones become practically transformative the next time you watch them.
On a repeat viewing, it often becomes clear how the big twist was basically hiding in plain sight, and the filmmakers might even be slyly winking at you about it the entire time.
