"The movie that I have watched a million times, and if I meet somebody that has not seen it, I force them to sit down and watch it ... I don't know why I'm so obsessed with it, but 'Man on Fire' with Denzel [Washington] and Dakota Fanning.

Taylor Lautner is the werewolf-heartthrob Jacob Black in "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1," opening today.
