We all love watching movies, don’t we? A week would not be complete if you haven’t watched at least one new movie. There are the movie buffs who like to watch movies and some movies are worth watching over and over again. Everyone has a different genre of movie that they like from action to romantic comedy to thrillers. And then there area few people who actually don’t like movies. Can you believe that? Imagine living your whole life without watching any movies. But let us not focus on those non-movie buffs or even the movie buffs.

We all have favourites and some of them make us go “Awww” while some them have us in stitches after laughing so hard while the others give you chills.
