Movies are one of my favorite things in the whole wide world. Each type of movie I see gives me a completely different attitude: superheroes inspire me, disasters humble me, ghosts and monsters make me brave, drama makes me wise, and romance makes me thankful and optimistic. Call me predictable, but chick flicks will always be closest to my heart. Watching sparks fly in a million different ways will never get old. True, these are the words of a hopeless romantic, but they could not be more accurate! So I've comprised my top 10 chick flicks to give them the shout out they deserve.
1. "How To Lose a Guy In 10 Days"
She's trying to get dumped, and he's trying to win a bet. Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey play their parts so well, the entertainment is priceless.
2. "Leap Year"
When you have to follow your boyfriend of 4 years to Ireland just to get a proposal, something just isn't right! But watching the dark horse Irishman, Declan, steal Anna from Boston's heart is both comical and heart warming. Plus he has the cutest accent, what's not to like?
3. "The Longest Ride"
You get not one, but two passionate love stories in one movie! The hot cowboy is definitely a bonus with this movie.
4. "A Walk to Remember"
Not only is this movie set in the angsty 2000s, but you get to watch a boy become a man with the help of a preacher's daughter. Caution: have a tissue box with you for this one.
5. "13 Going on 30"
When I was 13, this movie was the light at the end of the awkward phase. Not only did Jenna Rink prove that you can make your dreams come true, but she also made us want to marry our best friend.
6. "Pride and Prejudice"
This is your classic tale of hate becoming love. Mr. Darcy is the man of every girl's dreams, and watching Elizabeth realize her love for him is unbelievably satisfying.
7. "Stuck in Love"
This is a surprisingly deep movie, but it gives you a glimpse at three different types of lovers: the naive, the damaged, and the steadfast. With several twists and tearful tragedies, the movie ends on an optimistic note.
8. "Just Go With It"
First of all, Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler have an oddly charming chemistry that really makes this movie. Add in some adult humor, and you've got a quality film!
9. "The Ugly Truth"
As a Kathrine Heigl fan, I automatically love this movie. Definitely R rated, but watching a man who doesn't believe in love find himself knee deep in it makes this movie to die for.
10. "Dirty Dancing"
I am a dancer and naturally love a good dance movie. That being said, I think this movie is hilarious, entertaining, and real in many ways. If Baby can grow up and find love, so can we all!
