The more you watch the film

The more you watch the film, the more you like it.

The more you watch the film, the more you want to do (watch) it!

Hi,

Are they above right? Are there other ways to express the above?

Besides, does it apply to "eat something" and "listening to a piece of music?" Thanks.

Angiholis: These are common expressions (especially the first), which can apply to any activity. We have an expression "You can't eat just one potato chip"

Thanks, AlpheccaStars.

Is it right to say the following, too?

You can't watch just once the film!

You can't just watch the film one time!

You can't just listen to that piece of music one time!

You can't listen to that piece of music just one time!
