Worth Watching a Second Time

Rating: 8/10 (1 August 2005)

It just played on ABC, (I managed to stay awake through 73 minutes of ads!), and was surprised that there are some parts of the dialog throughout the movie that are worth hearing a second time around because they make more sense. I also heard stuff I must not have paid enough attention to the first time maybe because I didn't have to try to analyze anything.
For example, the first time I watched it, I didn't really connect the two 'halves' of a 'particular' exchange between Malcom and his mother at the end and found out in the second viewing that they go together like book ends. The first time I may have been scrambling to recall what else I already knew from earlier in the movie about the 'subject' of the first part of their conversation and missed that the basis of second part is a direct result of the first part not an added amplification of it.
