Best chick flicks for guys

by JCC

Created on: February 15, 2011

If your girl is good at the four-letter word, her past is probably linked to the movie biz.  It's not to say that she's stolen her wisdom from the big screen.  Instead, she's simply received a lot of feel-good moments by herself, which has enabled her imagination to picture the very best, especially when it comes to the four-letter word.  With that said, you might want to learn a thing or two, yourself.  Better yet, you might want to put forth some effort & make your girl happy by watching some of her favorite four-letter word movies.

Here are five of the best four-letter word (i.e., LOVE) movies that a guy must watch.  If you give these movies a chance, you'll realize how effortless it was. 

1.  Jerry Maguire

This may very well be the greatest chick flick for a guy.  The movie is centered around Jerry Maguire (i.e., Tom Cruise), a sports agent who is: passionate & devoted to career success; a lover of sports, especially the NFL; and, in search of fulfilment, although unaware of that which will fulfill.  In one way or another, most guys are easily able to relate with Maguire. 

Although the movie's mainly focused on Jerry & his life struggles, many women are captivated by this supposed "chick flick."  Thanks to Bruce Springsteen's Secret Garden, combined with the ultimate happy ending (Maguire realizes what fulfills him), a girl will happily sit through this movie, although it's practically made for men.

2.  Serendipity

Most men seem to enjoy a movie starring John Cusack; perhaps this is due to Cusack's personality and demeanor.  Cusack is a guy's guy; his character is genuine, laid-back, approachable, & funny.  The other lead role is played by Kate Beckinsale, who is also approachable & genuine, despite the fact that she's also a natural beauty.  Together, this duo creates a very cute, comical story that surrounds one of life's greatest questions: Is there such a thing as 'destiny?'

While Cusack and Beckinsale make the perfect pair, a guy will also enjoy the supporting roles played by Jeremy Piven (everyone's favorite  Hollywood agent from HBO's Entourage series), Molly Shannon (an actress and comedian, best known for her six seasons on Saturday Night Live), and Eugene Levy (a well-known comedic actor who's appeared in over forty motion pictures).  Clearly, this movie's bound to make you laugh a little.

3.  When Harry Met Sally

It doesn't matter what
