From your review I got the feeling that you liked this film yet you gave it a rewatchability of 1. Why?
And an interesting fact : Sharon Stone played Arnold's girlfriend in Total Recall

Because, as I mentioned, this film has its strengths and some notable watching points, but it's long, and it doesn't call out to be watched more than once every couple years. To me.

I agree. We usually watch it only if it comes on TV over a holiday while we're at a relative's house. So I've only watched it once.

Remember, any of the categories on the mutant meter, including Rewatchability, are NOT indicators of how good or bad a film is. A movie can be really great, yet doesn't call for another viewing for a while (or ever) due to a number of factors. Schindler's List, great flick, but not one I watch every week. Conversely, I'm sure there are a few stinkers that might actually be worth popping in more frequently, if just to enjoy the bad silliness.

That's always been one of the overriding unwritten laws of the MRFH... there's really no good way to numerically rate a movie with just one score. Rewatchability comes close, but as Justin points out, just because a movie is excellent doesn't mean you pull it out every day.
The OTHER extreme is CAP. With their revolutionary WISDOM system that anybody with a PhD in theoretical math and the help of Jesus himself can actually figure out.

Jesus has a degree in theoretical math?

Of course. Why do you think there's a book of the Bible called Numbers?

Well yeah, but that's in the beginning and there's nothing later. I thought he changed majors.
