  • Puppy love? Puh-lease
You’ve got loads of free time during the summer, which means more time to spend with your cutie. But instead of making him suffer through another chick flick, why don’t you suggest one of these great date movies both of you can enjoy?

 

These films are not too lovey-dovey, not too action-packed…they’re just right. Sweet! No more sighs or eye rolls will be coming from your boy again.

 

Fantastic 4

Why it’s perfect for the guys: It’s a crime-fighting team of heroes with the coolest of super powers.

Why it’s perfect for the girls: It ends with not one, but two happy couples.

 

Sherlock Holmes

Why it’s perfect for the guys: With black magic, incredible stunts and a quick, witty dialogue, your BF will be entertained non-stop.

Why it’s perfect for the girls: Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law make a dreamy team, and let’s not forget the sweet—but doomed—love between Holmes and Irene Adler.

 

Pirates of the Caribbean

Why it’s perfect for the guys: They’ll appreciate that this movie is packed with action, adventure and tons of laughs!

Why it’s perfect for the girls: Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom. Need we say more?

 

Get Smart

Why it’s perfect for the guys: Steve Carrell is hilarious as an overly confident goofball of an agent, Maxwell Smart.

Why it’s perfect for the girls: Anne Hathaway is smart and savvy as Agent 99, and a sweet and silly romance develops between her and Max.

 

Spider-Man

Why this it’s perfect for the guys: They’ll love all the action scenes with Spidey flying through the air and battling the evil Green Goblin.

Why it’s perfect for the girls: We’re busy wondering who we would choose if we were Mary Jane: Peter or Harry!

 

The Bourne Identity

Why it’s perfect for the guys: A man with amnesia and killer fighting skills finds out he’s somehow mixed up with the CIA and assassination plots. That calls for a lot of action!

Why it’s perfect for the girls: Bourne finds comfort in only one person: A stranger named Marie. You can bet that means a love connection.

 

Iron Man

Why it’s perfect for the guys: Tony Stark is the kind of man every guy wants to be: Wealthy, genius, famous, handsome…oh, and he can fly. Plus, they’ll love all of his super cool gadgets and cars.

Why it’s perfect for the girls: Besides the fact that RDJ is beyond attractive, we love seeing a playboy weapons-maker turn into a one-gal peace-maker. And how adorable would Tony and Pepper’s celeb couple name be? Pepperony!


National Treasure

Why it’s perfect for the guys: National secrets and a quest for treasure make this a fun adventure flick.

Why it’s perfect for the girls: Riley is as cute as can be, and we get to watch a relationship unfold between Ben and Abigail, who are absolutely perfect for each other!

 

What’s your favorite movie to watch with your BF? Blog about it, babes.

This article is really stereotyping/conforming to gender norms. As many people have already pointed out- girls can like action and gore and comedy, guys can like romance. Perhaps this should be more about movies for everyone- like both PEOPLE of ANY gender who like action or adventure, as well as PEOPLE of ANY gender (there are more than two genders- what parts you have and your gender can be two totally different things) who happen to like romance.

I'm so glad that so many people have already brought up how offensive this is. I know GL doesn't mean to come off this way, but the stereotype that women are only interested in movies for romance or hot guys is really sexist. The fact that women often accept these stereotypes as true is the reason they are being perpetuated.

This is fine as an article! Lots of girls i know including many of my close friends need help finding movies that both guys and girls would like.
