Can a chick flick be too cheesy, too corny or too contrived? Yes, and Nicholas Sparks' "Nights in Rodanthe" was all of these things, including one of many failed attempts to re-light America's torch for Richard Gere. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: WB) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

15. BEST: 'Seren...Some things were just meant to be — like lovable everyman John Cusack and stunning Brit Kate Beckinsale starring as fated lovers. Yes, please. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Miramax) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
14. BEST: 'The W...Before Jennifer Lopez was Ben Affleck's girlfriend, "Jenny from the Block," "American Idol" judge or a diva, she was a legitimately enjoyable actress. The singer/actress has never been more likable and down-to-Earth than she appeared opposite Matthew McConaughey. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Columbia) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
13. BEST: 'Bridg...When it comes to English charm and insufferable quirk, nobody does it better than Colin Firth and Hugh Grant. This undeniably charming movie easily makes the list. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Miramax) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
12. BEST: 'Must ...When two actors are as likable Diane Lane and John Cusack, it's impossible to not fall in love with them. Besides, everybody knows that man's best friend is ... woman! —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: WB) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
11. BEST: 'Notti...When Hugh met Julia, it was love at first sight for audiences. Clever, charming, quirky and surprisingly funny, "Notting Hill" was as "Romeo and Juliet" for people without the stomach for sonnets and balcony-side crooning. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Universal) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
10. BEST: 'Beach...The friendship between C.C. (Bettle Midler) and Hilary (Barbara Hershey) was the wind beneath our wings and taught us that no matter where life takes you, some bonds simply cannot be broken. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Touchstone) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
9. BEST: 'While ...Our beloved Sandy! The actress' very first romantic comedy is easily her best. Not only did she succeed in making us fall in love with her, but she also managed to bring out something that resembled a personality from Bill Pullman. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Buena Vista) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
8. BEST: 'Sleepl...When Sam met Annie, it was easily the best on-screen connection since when Harry met Sally. Coincidentally (but not really), author Nora Ephron wrote the stories both silver screen meetings were based on. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: TriStar) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
7. BEST: 'The No...Nicholas Sparks' classic novel of enduring love came to life in the capable hands of Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. Do you feel like having a good cry? Watch "The Notebook." —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: New Line) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
6. BEST: 'Dirty ...Is there a better movie couple than Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey? "Dirty Dancing" helped make Swayze a massive star and the film, sometimes called "'Star Wars' for girls" due to its popularity, one of cinema's classic love stories. Nobody puts this movie in the corner. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Vestron) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
5. BEST: 'When H...Not only is this one of Hollywood's best chick flicks, it's also one of the best comedies ever made. Director Rob Reiner teamed up with Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal to give hope to neurotic singles everywhere. By the end of this film, everybody wanted to have what she was having. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Castle Rock) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
4. BEST: 'Steel ...One of the quintessential chick flicks, "Steel Magnolias" shows the powerful bond between a group of Southern women. Emotional and inspiring, this film is girl power at its best. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: TriStar) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
3. BEST: 'Gone W...Long before Brad Pitt gave Jennifer Aniston the kiss-off, Rhett Butler was not giving a hoot about where Scarlett O'Hara went or did after he walked out of her life. However, their love story is one of the most epic ever put on film. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: WB) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
2. BEST: 'Pretty...If "Notting Hill" was Julia's "Romeo and Juliet," then "Pretty Woman" was her Cinderella story. What woman doesn't dream of being plucked from obscurity by a rich handsome man to be showered in jewels? Ok, so not every woman wants that. But Vivian Ward did, and audiences ate it up. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Touchstone) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
1. BEST: 'Ghost'If "Dirty Dancing" made Patrick Swayze a star, "Ghost" made him a legend. The actor's pottery-making scene with Demi Moore is one of the most iconic and mimicked in movie history. The ending doesn't leave a dry eye in the room. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Paramount) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.

15. WORST: 'Autu...Richard Gere and Julia Roberts were one of the best chick flick couples to ever hit the big screen, but the actor hit rock bottom opposite Winona Ryder in this sad, spark-less story. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: MGM) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
14. WORST: 'Brid...It's hard to like a chick flick when you can't stand any of the women in the film, and Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway were equally unlikable in this excruciating film. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Fox) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
13. WORST: 'All ...Bullock didn't win over audiences with this movie, but she did win the Razzie Award for Worst Actress for her performance. Sorry, Sandy. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Fox) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
12. WORST: 'Geor...A bizarre mix of comedy and heavy, heavy subject matter made for a movie with a serious identity crisis. And Lohan's increasingly negative public image didn't help the box office. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Universal) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
11. WORST: 'Maid...Lightning didn't strike twice for Jennifer Lopez, who hit a brick wall in the chemistry department opposite Ralph Fiennes in this flick based on a story by John Hughes. Lord Voldemort as a love interest? Really? —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Columbia) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
10. WORST: 'Nigh...Can a chick flick be too cheesy, too corny or too contrived? Yes, and Nicholas Sparks' "Nights in Rodanthe" was all of these things, including one of many failed attempts to re-light America's torch for Richard Gere. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: WB) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
9. WORST: 'The S...A group of girls shares a pair of pants that magically fits all of them. Unfortunately, the film felt as worn as the jeans the girls share, with obvious pandering to a teenage audience. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: WB) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
8. WORST: 'Cross...Britney Spears was not a girl, not yet a woman and nowhere near an actress. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Paramount) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
7. WORST: 'The E...Elaine said it best in "Seinfeld" when she remarked, "It's too long. Quit telling your stupid story about the stupid desert and just die already! Die!" —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Miramax) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
6. WORST: 'Divin...The only secret to this movie is how producers got such talented actresses to sign on for such melodramatic nonsense. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: WB) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
5. WORST: 'Sweet...How does something sweet leave such a bitter taste in your mouth? Well, Keanu Reeves acting is a good place to start. The lack of chemistry is a good second course. And a ridiculous plot is grand entree. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: WB) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
4. WORST: 'The U...Any number of Katherine Heigl rom-coms could have made this list, but "The Ugly Truth" made this list for being just plain ugly, unfunny and simply dumb in every sense of the word. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Columbia) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
3. WORST: 'Kate ...A 19th century duke (Hugh Jackman) travels ahead in time to modern day New York City where he falls in love with business woman (Meg Ryan). Where's Billy Crystal and a diner when you need them? —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Miramax) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
2. WORST: 'Swept...With any luck, all existing copies of this Madonna disaster will be swept away. To have even attempted this film with the singer in the lead and then-husband Guy Ritchie directing can only be described as vanity film-making. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: Sony) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
1. WORST: 'Sex a...Not just one of the worst chick flicks ever, "Sex and the City 2" (affectionately known as "the one where they went to the Middle East") is one of the worst films ever. Period. —XFINITY Entertainment Staff (Photo: New Line) The opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Comcast.
