Alien
I can watch it on repeat and die happy
Definitely in the running for best movie ever made.
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
Sneakers (1992). Plot makes me laugh every time. Stellar performances by all actors.
Your Name
The Shawshank Redemption. I don't have cable any more, but when I did, I'd watch it any time i saw it on.
Kung FU Panda, funny, humor for all ages and a moral lesson that we all need to have really sunk in.
WALL-E
Primer First time I watched it I had to restart the DVD immediately after it ended.
Some lesser popular options:
The Incredibles
Monsters, Inc.
Star Trek IV The Voyage Home and VI The undiscovered country
Star Trek Beyond
Top gun
Bloodsport
Jaws
Vertigo
Star trek VI is Undiscovered Country, but it is a good movie. Unless you mean Star Trek IV The Voyage Home which is personally my favorite Star Trek movie of them all.

Lord of the rings fellowship, two towers, and return of the king extended editions.
Sharknado
Some of my favourite rewatchables are:
Margin Call, The Big Short, The Wolf of Wallstreet, Nobody, Moneyball, The gentlemen, Layercake, Heat, The Running Man, Roadhouse.
BTW, if you've not heard of it, The Rewatchables is a great podcast where a group of guys talk about and critic movies they consider rewatchables. If you're interested, listen to episode 1. The list of shows would be a pretty good answer to your question but this list is off the top of my head.
Margin
Call The Big, Short The Wolf
of Wallstreet, Nobody
Moneyball: The gentlemen
Layercake Heat
The Running
Man, Roadhouse
Dude I've never heard of any of these films

Annihilation
How come? I was unimpressed by this movie despite it gaining a cult following.
It was one of the cases where the movie was better than the book it was based on

Withnail and I
Everything Everywhere All at Once
Maybe not worth rewatching every night/weekend, but from time to time I absolutely love rewatching Legend of Hei.
I don't remember where, but I remember some people online kinda comparing it as something like a Chinese Studio Ghibli film, which in a way is partially true since it has a magical feel to it.
I got a DVD/Blueray set through Shout! Factory and do not regret the purchase, personally.
Ramayanam Mahabharatam Unforgiven The magnificent seven The good, bad and the ugly There will be blood Nuvvu naaku nachaav Athadu Cloud Atlas Cast away Bahubali Deyyam ......
Chinatown
L. A. Confidential
my personal favorite is Kiki's Delivery Service, as it's a film that doesn't have common Disney/Western tropes of trauma or horrible things happening. the main character has a loving family, she is strong willed, sticks to her convictions and is honest/empathetic/kind. there's action and conflict in a non violent way and the characters are sane. while I don't have kids, it's also appropriate for children and has lessons that are valuable for all ages.
the animation is beautiful to boot and the story is fun. I honestly think it's an example of a perfect film.
