People Say These Movies Are, Without A Doubt, A 10/10, But They Also Swear They Will Never, Ever, Ever, Ever, Ever Watch Them Again”It’s a great movie, but I won’t put myself through that ending again.”
Reddit user hasan1808ali recently asked, “What movie is a 10 out of 10 for you, but you’ll never watch again?” The thread quickly filled with movies people found extremely poignant, moving, disturbing, devastating, flawless, and excruciating. Here’s what they revealed:
1.
“Saving Private Ryan. War is horrible, and this film is true to life. I saw it in a packed theater, and when it ended, nobody spoke or moved from their seat for about 20 seconds.”
2.
“Manchester by the Sea. It was hard to watch before I had kids. Now, there is no way I could sit through that.”
3.
“Bridge to Terabithia. Shocking twist. Never again.”
4.
“Uncut Gems. The movie gave me so much stress.”
5.
“The 2009 film The Lovely Bones. Overall, a great movie. Original plot, great acting, and all that. But it messed me up for days. Man, now I’m thinking about it again.”
6.
“The Green Mile. It broke my heart.”
7.
“The Shawshank Redemption is a solid 10/10, incredible story, amazing performances, and an all-around masterpiece. But honestly, I don’t think I’d ever watch it again because the impact the first time was just too powerful to replicate. Sometimes a movie is perfect as a one-time experience.”
8.
“Life is Beautiful. I feel like a lot of Holocaust movies are like this. Masterpieces, but absolutely horrific and grim. They are important to see, but I do not blame anyone for not wanting to watch them again. Life is Beautiful stuck with me. We watched it in school, and everyone was crying. The out-of-sight gunshot destroyed me.”
9.
“The Substance. I watched it with a friend and told her at about the halfway point, ‘I will never be watching this movie again.’ My husband watched it with us, too, but had to stop and couldn’t finish it. 10/10 movie though, highly recommend.”
10.
“Atonement. I don’t think I emotionally recovered from the first watch.”
11.
“Requiem for a Dream. Fantastic score and impactful story. Depressing AF, though.”
12.
“Parasite. A few of the visuals still give me nightmares.”
13.
“A Clockwork Orange. A powerful movie, but the brutality hits in a way I can’t handle.”
14.
“12 Years a Slave.”
15.
“Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Great movie, but depressing as fuck.”
16.
“A Star is Born with Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. Beautiful movie, great actors, beautiful story, well done, but never again will I watch it.”
17.
“The Northman. It shows how brutal life was 1,000 years ago. I was engaged the whole way through, but can’t force myself to watch it again.”
18.
“Midsommar. I thought it was well executed and very original, but the last 10 minutes traumatized me like a child, and I’m 40 years old. You could not pay me to watch it again.”
19.
“Promising Young Woman. Vitally important and very well done, but that movie destroyed me.”
20.
“We Need to Talk About Kevin. Whether or not you were feeling good before watching it, it’s so stressful and painful, it will make you feel bad.”
21.
“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button was a phenomenal movie, but the ending ruined me. I was a mess. It’s a great movie, but I won’t put myself through that ending again.”
22.
“Marley & Me.”
23.
“Sinners. I watched it once, and I will never watch it again because it is literally a masterpiece.”
24.
“Schindler’s List. The ending with him breaking down about how he could have saved more just destroys me.”
25.
“Mr. Nobody is possibly the best movie ever that is also impossible to watch again, let alone enjoy a second time.”
26.
And: “Sophie’s Choice. No other movie (some have come very close) has left me with such a gut-wrenching feeling that stayed with me a long time and gave me nightmares.”
