no with a list like this only great movies should be listed. If you want chick flicks there are plenty of better movies. I mean fuck, The Notebook anyone?

The Notebook should not be seen by anyone, ever.

It's still a step up from Love, Actually. Seriously, Hugh Grant ruins every movie he stars in.

Put Hugh Grant aside and you have a movie that at least has some humour and the odd bit of warmth and some fantastic cast members.

The Notebook was just the most over dramatic, overacted, snooty, pompous 'chick flick' I have ever seen. I don't mind romance movies, in fact there's a lot of them which I love but this film was pathetic. The cast/crew should all be shot and buried in shallow graves.

Also, About A Boy was indeed hilarious (and Hugh Grant was surprisingly tolerable in it) but in all fairness it is based on a fantastic book (although compared to the book it's shit but that happens all the time...).
