10 Most Rewatchable Movies Of The 1990s

So many of us have fond memories of pop culture from the ’90s which is why we see so many franchises from that era making comebacks and getting rebooted. As with any decade, there are some movies that seem to define this time and that fans can go back to again and again.

What makes a movie rewatchable are the thrills, laughs, and fun had while watching them each and every time. Even though they’ve been seen countless times, people cannot take their eyes off the screen whenever it comes on.

10 Forrest Gump (1994)

Despite winning the Oscar for Best Picture when it was released, Forrest Gump has since faced backlash with many dubbing it as an overrated movie. But while it might not be a cinematic masterpiece, it’s hard to argue that it is a fun journey to go on.

Tom Hanks gives an endlessly charming performance as the titular character, a simple-minded yet kind man who accidentally finds himself in the midst of some of the biggest moments in American history. Hanks’ performance as Forrest Gump, the comedic charm, and the grand scope of the movie help to make it quite endearing.

9 Clueless (1995)

While so many teen movies from this era now seem painfully dated, Clueless quite surprisingly remains timeless. Taking inspiration from Jane Austen’s novel Emma, Clueless stars Alicia Silverstone as a rich high school student who likes playing matchmaker with those around her while neglecting her own love life.

Though some of the slang is outdated, it works with the colorful and lighthearted world of this movie. The movie does a great job of capturing the youth culture of the time yet somewhat removing itself enough to poke fun at it as well.

Quentin Tarantino really cemented himself as one of the most unique filmmaking voices of his generation with his second feature Pulp Fiction. Despite being a complicated and violent odyssey of various stories intertwining, audiences got hooked to the wildness of it right away.

Even though the subject matter is often grim and bloody, Pulp Fiction’s strange sense of humor and high-energy style make it such a fun experience from beginning to end. Tarantino even makes scenes of long extended dialogue absolutely riveting.

Though it might not be seen as a classic, those who have seen Out of Sight can’t help but revisit it again and again. George Clooney stars as a bank robber who forms a connection with a US Marshal (Jennifer Lopez) who is hunting him.

Based on the novel by Elmore Leonard, Out of Sight may be the coolest movie ever made. Steven Soderbergh infused the crime movie with a chilled and laidback vibe that makes it a joy to watch and puts everyone in a good mood every time.

5 The Big Lebowski (1998)

10 Most Rewatchable Movies Of The 1990s

The Coen Brothers made some of their best movies in the ’90s. But while others may have received more acclaim, The Big Lebowski is the one that audiences can return to most frequently. The bizarre crime story follows a middle-aged stoner known as The Dude who finds himself wrapped up in a kidnapping scheme.

What makes the movie so unique is that the crime at the center of the story is the least interesting part. Instead, rewatch it for the weird characters and their hilarious conversations.

3 Dazed And Confused (1993)

10 Most Rewatchable Movies Of The 1990s

On the surface, Dazed and Confused is a very simple movie that might not seem necessary to revisit. It takes place in the ’70s on the last day of school as a bunch of high school teens look for somewhere to party. Yet filmmaker Richard Linklater makes the audience feel like they are part of that party.

Even if someone has no idea what it is like to grow up in this era, the movie perfectly captures the feeling of these teen years and hanging out with friends. In fact, each time someone watches the movie it feels like they are visiting old buddies.

2 Goodfellas (1990)

10 Most Rewatchable Movies Of The 1990s

It is rare that a violent and long gangster epic would be so easy to rewatch, but just try watching one scene of Goodfellas and not watching to watch the entire movie after. Martin Scorsese made a masterpiece that intoxicates people with the life of crime before it repulsing them.

The large saga of the story is told in such an engrossing manner that viewers hardly notice the lengthy runtime. Scorsese’s use of music is also hypnotic and helps carry this intense story along with ease.

1 Jurassic Park (1993)

Few directors can make popcorn movies as well as Steven Spielberg. In the hands of a lesser director, Jurassic Park could have been a B-movie, but he turned it into one of the most entertaining movies ever made.

Part of what makes the movie such a joy to revisit is that the feeling of seeing dinosaurs roam the earth has not dulled with time. Somehow, Spielberg and his Amblin team achieved this feat without effects that would become dated in a few years. It remains as impressive and thrilling as when it was released.
