    I love Amelie! Not just a chick flick. It's got the quirkiness that gives it the edge. Guys like this film too!

    I would have thought the photo of the lovely Audrey Tatou on the cover would be enough for blokes!

    We watch it regularly. It's just one of those 'gentle' films. Another one of those films (you know... you just watch and let yourself be carried by the film.. gently!) is the Straight Story. Not a chick film so doesn't belong here :oops:

    I've got to chime in with "Kill Bill: Vol. 1" as well as "Vol. 2."

    Totally chick flicks. Flicks in which a chick kicks some serious ass.

    I really liked 500 days of Summer!

    Can't beat Steal Magnolia's,

    liked Stealing Beauty too. The Lake House is quite good and P.S. I Love You.

    have to admit steel magnolias makes me blubber like a fool. also makes me laugh... always a winning combination. olympia dukakis is gold in that film.

    I didn't like The Women at all. :? Maybe I'm not a part of the target audience, I don't know.




    Ooh! How about It's Complicated? :D Maybe not a true chick flick, men could very well like that one too. :think: Still, it's pretty damn good. (I may be slightly biased, I love Meryl Streep. :P )
