Thats a good movie.

Anything with Hugh Grant is usually considered a "chick flick"

I agree with you.

I think a chick flick, is more romance and sappy love story.

Movies like "I am Sam", "White Oleander", "The Breakfast Club" do not constitute as chick flicks in my mind.

White Oleander is a chick flick.

It's a love story..not romantic love..but the movie is about love.

I think chick flicks are romanitc comedies, or movies that guys are less inclined to see... yes most of the time they make you cry, but I don't think that's always the case, any movie that makes me have butterflies because of how sappy cute it is, or how funny cute it is,, I would categorize as a chick flick.

Brokeback is a guy flick, meaning emotionless... the feeling between the two characters... was so stale I couldn't believe it.

Remember when you wanted to go see it in theatres, then called me back later to say DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S ABOUT?!?!?! and then you didn't want to see it anymore? lol. that was cute.

I've read your movie reviews....I don't hold much faith in your opinion here either.

According to IMDB

The Breakfast Club - DRAMA
I am Sam - DRAMA
White Oleander - DRAMA

Last time I checked "chick flick" wasn't exactly an official category for movies.

Clearly we have different tastes in movies, but thank you for your antagonistic, how did you word it, oh yeah "holier than thou" opinion
