What's Your Favorite Film Aimed Primarily At the Opposite Sex?

Examples of movies aimed primarily at men (Goodfellas, Unforgiven) or women (13 Going on 30, Sex & the City).

My favorite woman-centric movie is The Devil Wears Prada. Wasn't especially interested at first but it's become a favorite.

Maybe District 9 (2009).

Love Actually. It's the perfect Richard Curtis movie.

Ah, yes. In his rom-com range, Curtis is a master.

When Harry Met Sally (1989)

I'm guessing a lot of dudes got dragged to this one back in '89 and wound up enjoying it.

I still love the soundtrack. First time I'd heard Harry Connick Jr.

Probably My Best Friend's Wedding, Crazy Rich Asians, or Lost In Translation.

Ace Ventura Pet Detective

Interesting. I've never once heard a woman admit to liking this one. I've only seen it once--definitely made me laugh and definitely aimed at teenage boys.

Of course, now that I think about it, there are certain scenes in Dumb & Dumber that always make my mom laugh. So maybe Carrey's appeal is broader than I imagined.

Would you consider this one aimed at men or women? I've always considered it a general family film.
