What are your favorite and least favorite.......

types of movies?  I am a mystery/suspense fan. I like the Jack Ryan series, almost any Denzel movie, Gone Girl and Girl on a Train. I like twists and turns.  I am picky about comedies, love Sister Act, Crazy Rich Asians and the oldie but goodie, Ruthless People. For just for goofy fun Jaws etc.

 

I don't/avoid watch westerns, period pieces, sappy love stories. No slasher anything, no knives, axes, swords, arrows etc.

 

What are your likes and dislikes?

Not a fan of horror or noir movies. Love musicals and any and all old Christmas movies.Pretty much a fan of anything late 1930's thru mid 1960's.

I love a good tear jerker like Steel Magnolias. I love comedies, suspense and a good legal movie. Haven’t seen any good movies lately though.

I don't like scary movies. The world is scary enough.

I hate anything with bathroom humor.

 

I love mysteries, clean comedies (hard to find), some old movies. I love animals but usually don't go for the movies about them because there is bound to be some element of sadness and loss. I don't watch movies to get depressed. 

 

I will watch Titanic and the Godfather movies as many times as they are rerun on channels where they cut out the filthy words. Smiley Happy

@godi   There are some good old legal ones if you can find them. Class Action with Gene Hackman.Runaway Jury, Primal Fear with Richard Gere.

 

I also like Jagged Edge with Glenn Close.

I don't have any particular favorite genre.  Anything with Bette Davis, Cary Grant, James Cagney and a few others would be on the list.  

 

Least favorite--those Friday the 13th type of moves; war movies; and anything too sentimental.

Re: What are your favorite and least favorite.......

I love a good ghost story, thrillers and mysteries, also old musicals like Calamity Jane, Oklahoma and the like.  I also enjoy bios if done with mostly accuracy, a well acted drama and period pieces.

 

My least favorites are mushy love stories, animal stories which always have sadness attached.  Westerns , war stories and any movie filled with violence and sex are not for me.
