Different types of chick flick: P.S I LOVE YOU

P.S I Love You, can be seen as both Chick flick, and Romantic comedies, so when i researched into this film, and watched the trailer,  you can see some aspects in which a chick flick is involved in.
Chick flick is a slang term for a film mainly dealing with love and romance designed to appeal to a female target audience. which is normally based around women, relationships, and emotions.
P.S I Love You, is about a woman, played by Hilary Swank, who is in deeply in love with her soul mate, and her husband who is played by Gerard Butler, who then tragically dies due to a brain tumor. He then leaves her little challenges, and tasks to do, to help her move on, and find her way without him, and always leaving the notes by saying... p.s I love you. This film is a emotional, heart-felt chick flick, which has been watched by women and teenagers. the Target audience is based for women, and with the budget and box office, this chick flick was a successful movie. You can tell it was successful with well known stars like; Lisa Kudrow, Hilary Swank, Gerard Butler, Jefferey Dean Morgan and chick-flick and romantic film Titanic's star Kathy Bates, made an all star cast to create such an successful film, and there are all shown in the trailer, along with intense music, romance, Irish music, and alot of story lines and plots involved. 
Budget$30 million
Box office$156,835,339
This may not be St Trinians, or Mean girls, but it shows a different type of Chick Flick, and the way it can be a positive effect on the box office and the viewing public.
