I've never been interested in Gangster films. My brother loves them, but I've never been that bothered about watching them.

I love gangster films, especially the gritty British ones.
I've never been into Sci-fi. |

With the exception of a small number such as 'True Grit' and comedy versions, I've never been interested in westerns.

I've never been into Sci-fi. As an aside do you have a top 3 'gritty' british gangster films? I'm struggling a bit to think of many. Get carter, the long good Friday and perhaps layer cake (great film but not sure I'd call it gritty as such). |

Fantasy, sci-fi or anything that relies on special effects to mask a poor plot and dodgy acting.

Casino. Goodfellas. (Martin Scorsese.) Pulp Fiction. Reservoir Dogs. (Quentin Tarantino.) These are the type of films you may not like on first watch, but they grow on you. The latter two you will have to watch at least twice, as they are filmed out of sequence. = For me. Musical films with a few exceptions, e.g. 'My Fair Lady' and 'Calamity Jane'. |

Another one for sci-fi (exceptions made for Blade Runner and the original Solaris). I don't like rom-coms, action movies or fantasy films either, and especially dislike Pixar animations (I find the figures creepy, in the same way as I find dolls a bit creepy).

But lots of sci-fi and fantasy films don't rely on effects, some of the best movies ever made are sci-fi and fantasy.
I meant: a) I don't like fantasy b) I also don't like sci-fi c) I also don't like anything that involves special effects to mask a poor plot and dodgy acting. ... and while I'm here, I don't like gangster films or westerns either.

I do not like chick flicks the only time I have ever watched them is in hope of getting some action. The only one I have ever liked is Muriel's Wedding and that is Australian. American ones are always schmaltzy tripe that give women unrealistic expectations of men.

I was astonished by how well it's stood the test of time, and I'd forgotten how funny it is. Still a great movie. |

I like All Genres
Some are more boring than other Genres though and have only a handful of films I like Such as Horrors and Musicals, Generally I find these Genres crapy and boring, but there are the odd few films I enjoy |
