I've now watched this masterpiece twice.  It's one of the greatest films ever made and I'll be happy never watching it again.

Twice. As powerful the Second time as it was the first.
I actually consider a lot of movies to be life-changing! I take them to my heart and they melt into my personality.

Saw it once, but I'm definitely going to see it again soon.

Not sure what to vote for. I've seen it once but I don't own it yet I'm not opposed to revisiting it.

Twice. Once pre-filmspotting, once about 2 years ago. About the same reaction each time. A good story, but I didn't have nearly as strong a reaction to it as others have reported. A middle of the road film for me. :-\

I saw it once on TV a few years back. Really need to sit down and watch it start to finish, uninterrupted.

This is me, except I understood that I should vote for "once".
