Donnie Darko

Fight Club

Pulp Fiction

All three of those make much more sense the second time around.

In general, though, that's a matter of personal preference. I will never turn down Young Frankenstein, The Blues Brothers, Blazing Saddles, Groundhog Day, or The Princess Bride.

You make a good distinction. In my opinion this question can be answered in two ways:

  • A movie that holds up being just as good on a rewatch.

  • Movies where you either pick up on clues/details on further rewatches once you know the full movie. Or that are just so dense/layered that you just can't catch everyrhing the first time you watch it
