reflexive banach space

I want to ask this non-expert question:

What does it mean geometrically for a Banach space to be reflexive?

Well, we could say a Banach space is reflexive iff unit ball is weakly compact. Or some other theorems may be. But this doesn't give me a geometric intuition so far.
