Michael Keaton is an all time underrated actor IMO.Ok now that we are all completely enbarrassing ourselves here is a movie that I actually bawled my eyes out watching.
My life with Michael Keaton and Nicole Kidman. Very depressing. I was home one day during the week back in the mid 90's and caught it on HBO. Literally was bawling. My wife came hone and asked me why I was crying. I had no answers.
Agreed. And did you know his actual name is Michael Douglas, and despite changing it when breaking into Hollywood (for obvious reasons), he still has Douglas on his passport and driver's license and does not answer to Michael Keaton in the real world?Michael Keaton is an all time underrated actor IMO.

I'll default to chick flicks because I'm not really embarrassed about any b rate movies I enjoy and go with:
"PS I Love You" - Was a pretty good movie that I watched with my wife (while she was pregnant) and she will not watch again because it was "so sad". The brave King Leonidas apperently has a softer side.
"Defenitely, Maybe" and "The Proposal" are 2 other movies in this genre that I found enjoyable.
I'll add The Proposal, but it's mainly because I love Craig T. Nelson and I'm not ashamed to admit I've had a man crush on Ryan Reynolds since Van Wilder, and then after seeing his Walken impression it just solidified it.I loved The Proposal! Ryan Reynolds is freakin hilarious, even when he was trying to be serious in Green Lantern.
I liked Notting Hill (Hugh Grant, Julia Roberts) mostly because of his disgustingly man cave-ish flat matee, you know who you are. He was that guy that all fraternities had but tried to keep hidden at parties.
Okay, I'm going to go ahead and completely embarrass myself, but my wife had me watch the movie 17 Again with her (the body switch movie with Zac Efron), and I hate to admit it, but I kind of enjoyed it. It helps that it's about basketball and at the beginning of the movie he's being recruited by Syracuse, but really it's mainly enjoyable because Tom Lennon is in it, and Tom Lennon can do no wrong.

It's certainly not great but there are enough secondary characters played by good comedic actors and, god help me, I actually found Efron reasonably charming and funny in the lead role.We actually own that movie. My wife has asked me to watch it at least 100 times.. Always said no. Maybe I'll give it a shot
Van Wilder is on Comedy Central now, FYISince Van Wilder and Waiting I'll watch most any Ryan Reynolds movie. He does make a e superhero though since you can't really take him seriously.

Van Wilder is on Comedy Central now, FYI
I have the DVD somewhere in the pile of movies my 11 year old son isn't allowed to watch, probably right in between Eurotrip and Old School.
And next to American Pie?
Jekelish is right. It's a lot better than it has any reason to be.We actually own that movie. My wife has asked me to watch it at least 100 times.. Always said no. Maybe I'll give it a shot
