Happy Gilmore. Into the sixties of viewings. I blame a mixture of totally loving it and it being a kid-friendly funny film to stick on before Xmas / Easter holidays when I can't be arsed to drop knowledge to the youth of Britain.
Et toi?

Strange Brew: The Adventures of Bob and Doug MacKenzie
or
Better Off Dead
those would be at a close tie for my most pointlessly watched movie...

I've seen "The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension" about 50 times, and I still couldn't tell you what it's about.

American Flyers...It's about bike racing, and the scene where David Grant drops the ketchup-covered french fry on Alexandra Paul's leg and cleans up after himself was about the most erotic thing I'd seen when I was 12.

I've seen that one a gazillion times as well. Just caught it about 6 months ago on TV.

Markie Mark's The Big Hit.
Hong Kong gun-fu movie with American actors... check
Gratuitous mentions of King Kong Lives... check
Masturbation obsessed pretty boy... check
Kelly Bundy doing an atrocious Jewish accent... check
Rainbow mafia with Captain Sisko as the Godfather... check
White Boy trying to be black... check
And a plan where everyone uses the names from Gilligan's Isle for code names... check
Awful movie, but I've watched it at least a dozen times. I've owned it on VHS and DVD.

Groundhog Day.
I've seen it so many times, it's as if I'm actually experiencing my own personal Groundhog Day whenever I see it.

Clifford with Martin Short and Charles Grodin. If I ignore the lame bookend opening/closing sequence, it's probably the funniest move that I've seen, and seen again, and seen again...each time, there's some new bit of funny.
My second most re-watched movie of all time - Waiting for Guffman. I swear, I could lipsync that one by now.

I am not a massive re-watcher of films. But I suspect That I have seen Rio Bravo anything up to ten times. It is not one of my favourite movies and I don't own it on DVD or Video but I do find it so easy to watch again and again when it is on TV.

I've seen all of the Rocky movies (except of course the newest) easily 60 something times.
and the fight/training scenes probably 100 plus times each.

Needlessly? I don't watch movies twice unless it's needed. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles might be the closest, or maybe a Monty Python movie or two. Those are because I already know all the lines.

See, Buckaroo was my needlessly rewatched movie. Background noise, and all that.
For the movie I choose to rewatch over and over (ignoring the classics like Raiders and Star Wars), that would have to be Sneakers starring Robert Redford, Sidney Poitier, Ben Kingsley, River Phoenix, David Strathairn, Dan Aykroyd, Mary McDonald and on and on...what a great underrated movie that is.

The Blues Brothers. well over 100 times.
In the 80s I had the best job ever, I worked in a mom and pop video store, and every week we watched that when we closed the store. Often more than once a week.
Manhunter i have seen at least 50 times, it is a brilliant and underheralded movie.

I've watched From Dusk Till Dawn probably 15 times all total. Sometimes I only watch the first half, sometimes I only watch the second half. It's really two movies in one.
I've watched Terminator 2 probably at least a dozen times now. There's just so much to like about the movie from a technical and storytelling standpoint. And Robert Patrick has the perfect face for a remorseless bad guy.
