Top Ten Cheating Movies to Watch

More Cheating Movies to Watch This Year

There are many different types of movies, and there's something for everyone. Some like psychological thriller movies, some prefer romantic comedies, and others like action adventures movies. A cheating movie is one where somewhere in the movie's plot, a character cheats on another character. It might be a woman cheating on her husband, or a boyfriend cheating on his girlfriend. This article will give you ten classic cheating movies to watch this year.

1. Micki and Maude (1984). Okay, we'll start with an oldie movie from the 80's. Hard to believe the 80's movies are now called oldies, hmm? This was a great movie of Dudley Moore's. In this plot, Dudley is in love with two women, so he flip flops between both of them, living with one at night and one during the day. It's just crazy. The funniest thing is that they both are pregnant, and are in the hospital in labor at the same time. You can imagine that he gets caught, right? A funny romantic comedy, but nonetheless he is cheating on two women he loves.

2. A Knight's Tale (2001). Richard Gere and Sean Connery together in one movie. Of course, Richard Gere falls for Sean Connery's woman in the movie, and so there's going to be trouble. What better movie could there be about medieval times and castles and thrones, and of course, knights?

3. Overboard (1987). Do you remember this classic movie with one of our favorite couples, Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell? In this movie, you might think that the cheating is what Goldie Hawn does of her husband. However, she has amnesia, so you can't really consider her being tricked into being with Kurt Russell as cheating. It's Goldie's husband in the movie who does the cheating. While Goldie is off being a parent and wife to Kurt Russell, because he tricked her, her real husband is on her boat, with lots of women.

4. The Graduate (1967). Well, Dustin Hoffman, what are you doing with your female friend's mother? You could argue that she seduced you. You might say that you weren't really with the daughter, and that the two of you were just friends. However, there is no doubt that this is a cheating movie, because the mother is cheating on her husband!

5. My Best Friend's Wedding. In this movie with Cameron Diaz and Julia Roberts, Julia's best guy friend is now engaged to Cameron Diaz. She realizes that she loved him, and has to get him back. Well, he ends up kissing Julia Roberts, and cheating on his fiance Cameron. The worst part is, she sees it happen! This movie is about more than just cheating on a fiance. It's also about cheating yourself. Julia Roberts had this great guy, but she never did anything about it. So he ended up with someone else and she lost him. Don't cheat yourself. Don't let this happen to you!

6. A Perfect Murder (1998). I like the movies that are suspense filled like this. What is it about them that makes us drawn to the screen? Gwyneth Paltrow and Michael Douglas give us one suspense filled movie in this film. Gwyneth is cheating on Michael Douglas in the movie, and he finds out. He then hires the guy to kill his wife! Interesting plot, eh?

7. Six Days and Seven Nights (1998). Anne Heche is with David Schwimmer. When Anne has to go back from the island of their vacation to go to work, she gets a ride with pilot Harrison Ford. The plane crashes, and the two of them have to find a way back. David Schwimmer ends up hooking up with another woman on the island, even though Anne remains faithful to David. This is hard to do, since she has fallen for hunk Harrison Ford in the process. What will she do when she finds out that David Schwimmer has betrayed her?

8. Titanic (1997). You wouldn't think of this as a cheating movie, but more of a truly romantic movie, a sad movie, an endearing movie. However, in the movie, our beautiful lady Rose (Kate Winslow) is actually cheating on her husband to be with Jack (Leonardo DiCapprio).

9. She's The One (1996). Here's one you may have missed with two of my personal favorite actors, Jennifer Anniston and Edward Burns. Jennifer is married to Edward Burn's brother. However, the brother is cheating on her with Edward's ex, Cameron Diaz. Wow, what drama. Watch what unfolds in this cheating movie.

10. Sliding Doors (1998). Gwyneth Paltrow has a boyfriend. He is cheating on her. This movie goes back and forth between two realities. In one of the realities, Gwyneth discovers the cheating boyfriend, and changes her life. In the other reality, she doesn't find out. Does it all turn out the same in the end?

    Unfaithful is a great movie about cheating.

    Also, I think you mean First Knight (1995), not A Knight's Tale for 2.

    Hollywood is really good at cheating.
    All that I can think of is Broke Back Mountain. (Cheating in all directions.)
    I've only seen a couple of these.
