Does a films ability to be repeatedly viewed make it great?
Discussion
Pondered this last night after watching Everything Everywhere All At Once with some friends. Did I enjoy it ? Yes. Did I think Michelle Yeoh was good? Very much so? Would I watch it again late at night if I came across it whilst channel surfing and get hooked? Not sure if I would to be honest. There are, on the other hand, plenty of films that for me do fall into that category, Godfather(s), Apocolypse and many others. Is this an indicator of quality, or that the latter just have some ability to quench some base cravings, like a McDonalds or a kebab but doesn’t necessarily mean they are at the the 3 star Michelin end of the spectrum. Granted, the films I referenced are 3 star but many ‘lesser’ films can be watched again and again. In short, EEAAO, not as good as the hype ‘cus I probably won’t watch it a second time
