A “popcorn flick” refers to a movie that is entertaining and enjoyable, but usually lacks depth and substance. These films are often light-hearted, fun, and designed to be enjoyed casually without requiring much thought or analysis. They are often called “popcorn flicks” because they are perfect for munching on popcorn while watching.
Example 1: After a long and tiring day, I just wanted to relax and watch a mindless popcorn flick, so I chose a superhero movie with lots of action and special effects.
Example 2: Although critics didn’t praise the film for its originality or storytelling, it still became a box office hit due to its appeal as a popcorn flick with its humor and thrilling chase scenes.
