The Princess Bride (1987)
Seemed like a chick-flick, but with just enough action and adventure to avoid being part of that genre. The whole movie was funny at times, but cheesy the entire time. Some of the dialogue was hilarious, but it was dampened by the constant references to "True love" and the 80's style special effects. Can't say I'd love to watch it again, but can't say I'd entirely hate it either. Of course, watching it at one in the morning might have something to do with my slightly negative opinion of it. 
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)
Overuse of bad CGI, weird psychotic tones, and little sleep the night before, (See above) all came together to make me dislike this movie.....Quite a bit. I'm not sure how it was written originally, but this seems like the type of movie that would be a nice, cheery movie about an eccentric chocolate maker (Not insane) and the bad consequences of not obeying the rules. But instead it had Willy grinning and laughing at the evil kids plight, and not trying at all to keep them from their doom with the exception of a sentence or two of warning. The way Depp portrays Willy Wonka is freaky enough for you to wonder if he is really supposed to be a good guy. I can deal with good guys with flaws, but they're clearly shown to be on the right side. Willy wasn't shown as evil enough, or good enough to really be put in either category, as so earned my dislike early on. Because of that, I'd rank him as even creepier than the Joker. (Granted, I've only seen a few clips of the Ledger version of The Joker, but he's shown to be evil, and kept that way.)
I won't be watching this one again, and I probably won't be taking that friend's movie suggestions any time soon either.
