no, it's not porn I'm talking about......

I mean those kind of movies you secretly watch and like no matter how awful their critics are.

As for me, there are some chick flicks a supercilious critic would blame me for watching....one of them is "While you were sleeping" -- yes, I think I watched it 5 times at least. Yes, it's sappy, it's unreal, it's predictable but I love it.

C'mon, folks, take courage and confess!

All the comedies. I watch them even if they are goofie or reviews are bad. How about Analyze this/that?

I absolutely loved Mystery Men. The critics hated it, it bombed at the theater (where I watched it twice by the way) and most people I talk to thought it was terrible, but man, that's some kind of awesome movie if you ask me.

The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad

I doubt any of the younger folks, and probably some of the older ones, will remember this movie. However, I loved it. The monsters are mechanical, the story is so simple, yet something about it I really like.

This movie has monsters, a genie, a love story and of course a hero. I think I am the only one who likes it. Can't say I'm ashamed, but maybe "alone" in that I like this film. I think I've only seen it once on tv in the last 30 years or so. When it first came out, I'd bug my sister (who hates any kind of monster/horror/scary movies) to go see it with me. To this day, I still tease her about it. I am actually considering buying it. :p Btw, it was followed up by another favorite, "Jack The Giant Killer."

The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad

Not only do I remember it, but I have a DVD copy of it. To anyone who has never seen a Ray Harryhausen movie (with his wonderful animated monsters) you MUST see how he works his magic!

There's one "chick" movie that I love ... "Fried Green Tomatoes". Its got a wonderful story, and some damned fine acting (Jessica Tandy is superb).

Some people think Mary Poppins stinks but i think its a classic film of its time good actors and soundtrack to it nice colorful film.

My husband not only has a list of "chick flicks" that he hates, such as "Terms of Endearment", but an alternate list of "chick flicks disguised as movies that guys might like" list. These are movies such as "Forget Paris" or "Jerry Maguire" where he feels that the writers threw in some sports action so that women could get their men to accompany them to these movies with the justification of "But you'll love it! Tom Cruise plays a sports agent! There's football!".

One of the movies I am embarrassed to admit that I secretly love is Sweet Home Alabama. It's really a bad movie, but I get suckered into rooting for the young couple every time.

I like the Super Mario Brother's movie. Yes, the acting is terrible. Yes, the story is terrible. Everything about it is terrible. But I like it. Maybe it's because I'm a gamer. Who knows. I'd probably give it a 1/10 on the scale, but I can't help it. If it's on, I watch it.

I remember watching this in the theater with my cousins when I was younger. At the time I thought it was a really great movie, then I watched it on TBS a while back and I just couldn't belive how bad it was. I did sit and watch it until the end though.

I've seen 10 Things I Hate About You about 30 times.

That's an awesome movie.

several comedies, especially "Shallow Hal", and also Spike Lee's "Clockers", that everyone says is one of his worst films, and is in my top ten list!

Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo

Imdb page
I don't own it or anything, but whenever it's on TV, I have to watch it. I remember going to Venice Beach when I was little (late 80's) and seeing the breakdancers there, just like in the movie.

Besides that, I don't think any of the other movies I like are embarrassing, per se. I mean sure, I love a good chick flick every now and then, but guess what... I'm a girl, so it's okay. :p

Great one TIS! How about "Jason and the Agronauts"?

I also love Jack and The Beanstalk with Abbott and Costello.

I always liked " Steel Magnolias" great cast with some really fantastic dialogue. A heartbreaker movie .

Super Mario Brothers.. and Never Been Kissed. I hate chick flicks, but I liked that one.

You're not alone.

Jason and the Argonauts is a great movie. I had wanted to watch it ever since I watched some of the extras on the Army of Darkness DVD that showed bits of the movie. It took until both Jason and the Argonauts and Clash of the Titans were recently released on DVD that I finally saw it.

Any Paulie Shore movie

"....and I'm ashamed to.."

Taking the topic literally, I do a feel a bit of shame at watching "Shindler's List". Movie's like that make me self-conscience about being German (although I'm 3 generation American). Also, any movie that the Anerican Indians being mistreated and slaughtered or movies showing slavery.

I like a lot of "chick flick" type of movies like.

Ghosts, Riding in cars with boys, When a man loves a women, Beaches, Pretty Women.

Theres a couple more but I cant remember. Guys theres nothing wrong with "girl" movies. Plus when your dating or in a relationship they come in pretty handy

Hey, welcome back, DP!

Nice to read you again, MaryCas!

No, I rather meant "embarassed". My English is still far from perfection.....

I LOVE Deuce Bigalow, Male Gigalo. That movie has me on the floor laughing everytime.

OMG me too, Kris. But I'm not embarrassed... So it's a little stupid-- It's a funny movie! What can you do?

That whole "Man-whorin'" dialogue... classic!!
