welcome to watchmojo.com and today we'll
be counting down the top 10 movies that
you have to watch twice just to clarify
we're talking about the complex
mind-bending movies that you need to
re-watch to fully understand and
appreciate there's sometimes a buggy how
many drivers does it buggy have please
be advised though we've removed some of
the major spoilers there may still be
some ahead mr. dirty number 10 the usual
suspects it was all the cops fault you
don't put guys like that into a room
together kicking off our list is the
film that follows the interrogation of
Kevin Spacey as a small-time con man and
the lone survivor of a brutal massacre
were then given flashbacks and a story
presented by his unreliable narrator one
that tells the tale of a mythical crime
boss Kaiser Kaiser says a the second
viewing is completely different once
you've learned the truth behind Kaiser
Soze

number nine open your eyes
aka hibernating los oils next up is the
original spanish film that was hastily
remade into the Tom Cruise vehicle
Vanilla Sky which also co-starred
Penelope Cruz do you wanna hear Jeff
Buckley or Vikki Carr here a handsome
man caught in a love triangle is forced
to have his face reconstructed after a
grisly accident since the twist scene is
woven into the narrative seamlessly upon
a second viewing you'll definitely be
paying extra close attention
I won puck across he knows me number
eight Jacob's Ladder a psychological
horror this one centers on a
shell-shocked Vietnam vet mourning the
loss of his child the hook here is that
he must also deal with severe
disassociation which has broken him from
reality this leads to his various
attempts to make sense of the delusions
and dreams he experiences as you may
have imagined this adds up to a film
that's both hard to follow the first
time around but one that's frightening
the hypnotic nonetheless number seven
Mulholland Drive next up is the
surrealist neo-noir about an aspiring
actress who befriends an amnesiac there
are several ways to interpret this movie
this is due to its focus on elements
that are seemingly unconnected while
never really letting you make up your
mind whether or not a scene is real a
dream or even some sort of metaphor
simply put there is no major consensus
to be found here especially in the
second half and that's part of the fun
number six Fight Club you can never
really say enough about this WatchMojo
favorite perhaps that's because it
inherently needs to be rewatched on the
surface it's all about Norton as an
insomniac office worker who befriends a
charismatic soap making fist fighting
anarchist did you know a few mixed equal
parts of gasoline and frozen orange
juice concentrate you can make napalm
here however once we learned the truth
about his new friend it's time to hit
rewind and search for all those clues
you surely missed
answer me why do people think that I'm
you
I think you know on top of it all
director David Fincher ads in subliminal
frames throughout the film expertly
blurring form with function everything's
a copy of a copy of a copy
number-5 inception
leave it to Christopher Nolan to try as
hard as he can to lose the audience here
DiCaprio and company are hired to use
their experimental technology to enter
their targets dreams although the
initial concept is enough to make your
eyes cross this film heavily relies on
the concept of dreams within dreams
plays with the flow of time and then has
the cojones to leave you guessing at the
end but the top wobbled number four
Donnie Darko this supernatural flick is
a cult classic for a reason its plot
focuses on Jake Gyllenhaal's Donnie
narrowly surviving a jet engine landing
in his bedroom he then goes down the
rabbit hole in a story about hypnosis
wormholes and alternate timelines
there's even a creepy man-sized bunny
named Frank deliberately weird donnie
darko is also a delightful mind bender
you're stirring stanley number three The
Sixth Sense
Ben speaking keep it in this brilliant
psychological horror were introduced to
a boy who can see dead people
and the dedicated child psychologist
that's trying to help him if you've been
hiding under a rock for the last 15
years and you don't know the twists
we won't ruin it in this clip but
suffice to say that there are countless
hints about it throughout and it takes
multiple viewings to notice them all
either way after seeing the end you
won't be able to watch it the same way
twice

number two primer in this film a group
of scientists working out of her garage
accidentally create a machine capable of
time travel but each timeline remains
totally distinct it would be an
understatement to say that said
interpretation of time travel was all
that straightforward I'm not gonna
pretend like I know anything okay
the result is a movie that is so
mind-bending and devilishly complex that
movie goers have created diagrams just
to try and grasp what they saw and I can
imagine no way and which is thing would
be considered anyway remotely close to
say all I know is I spent six hours in
there and I'm still alive with so many
great films to choose from we had to
draw a line somewhere so here are a few
honorable mentions
I don't think the human mind is meant to
exist in two different whatever you call
that uh dimensions eighteen hours
straight nice paycheck
you don't remember me at all no we've
talked a bunch of times I'm sure we have
number one memento or what's the last
thing you remember taking the top spot
on our list is the masterful film by the
Dark Knight and inception director
Christopher Nolan remember Sammy
Gannicus a movie presented in reverse
order it confuses with a protagonist
that can't create new memories and who's
out to find out his wife's killer
I told me his name was Teddy don't
believe these lies ultimately this
psychological neo noir thriller will
keep you guessing deciphering and
sorting out events long after your first
viewing and no watching it backwards
won't help kissing this guy
