For me, it’s either the Matrix or Pulp Fiction. I have seen both a lot of times but certainly not more often than say a dozen times.

Hackers and Grosse Pointe Blank. Watched it almost every night to go to bed for years on VHS.

Hackers is a great choice, it's so cheesy but it just draws you in and completely suspends your beliefs. Every character is likeable and the lines are so well delivered, man now I got to rewatch it. Terminator 2, hackers, and Pokemon 1st gen probably made more SDEs than any stem outreach program.

Grosse Point Blank is not my favourite film of all time. But it's the only one I've ever been able to honestly give a perfect 10/10 score.

The story, the cast, the script, the pacing, obviously the soundtrack, there is just not a single flaw I can find.

Isn't Grosse Pointe Blank from around '98 or '99?
That's when VHS was on its' very last legs. I think my first DVD player was from around 2001, by that time the graph line of DVD rising and VHS falling had already intersected, and this was in Mexico, I'm not sure when other parts of the world made the transition, say in the US, Europe or Japan it happened earlier.
