Chick flick
From Free net encyclopedia
(Redirected from Chick Flick)
The term chick flick is slang, often derisive, for a movie which is designed or considered to appeal mainly to women, and generally focusing more on romance or relationships. Many romantic comedies or films with many female characters are likely to be put in this category. Critics of the term have pointed out that movies aimed specifically at men are not labeled so derisively.
