''The Blind Side'' 2009 has scored big with female moviegoers, but it's not in a league of its own; see why ''The Rookie,'' ''Bend It Like Beckham,'' ''Hoosiers,'' and ''The Cutting Edge'' are ''chick flicks''.
THE ROOKIE (2002)
Warning: This film might just inspire you to attempt the impossible. In this based-on-a-true-story movie, Dennis Quaid plays Jim Morris, a pitcher who tries out for the Major Leagues years after a shoulder injury cut his baseball career short.
WILDCATS (1986)
Who says a woman can't coach football? Goldie Hawn never got that memo. She takes a job at an inner-city high school, and must whip a ragtag band of hoodlums — including Wesley Snipes, Woody Harrelson and LL Cool J — into shape before the Big Game. It's football with a healthy dose of female empowerment — and that's worth cheering for.

BRING IT ON (2000)
Girls dig the razor-sharp satire and unforgettable characters; guys dig the short skirts. To paraphrase über-cheerleader Torrance Shipman (Kirsten Dunst), this movie is the poo. So take a whiff.
