I personally don't see it as a problem, as several people have already said, just so long as they don't go overboard and create a scene. There was one time in January of 2002 where I went to my home town movie theater and saw the movie "A Walk to Remember"; up until the last 30, maybe 40 minutes of the film, I was holding up fine emotionally until the scene where Jamie (Mandy Moore) revealed to Landon that she had leukemia and was dying, because nothing more could be done for her. It was after that scene in particular that everyone in the theater, guys and girls alike (myself included) were bawling their eyes out. The real waterworks, primarily for me, began about 15 minutes or so after that, when Reverend Sullivan (Peter Coyote) walked into Jamie's room and asked why Landon was in the yard; when Jamie turned to try to answer, all of a sudden, she started to look super sick, then just fainted and Reverend Sullivan was *barely* able to catch her before she hit the floor and had to be rushed to the hospital in the back of an ambulance. From there, until the movie was over, four years after Jamie's sudden death, there was *NOT*, I repeat, was *NOT* a dry eye in the theater. In fact, I had to have a ride home, because trying to walk home that night would have been impossible; along the way home, however, I had to hold hands with the girl who gave me a ride, because we were both so weak from crying during the movie that night.
The following Monday before school started, the same girl walked upstairs to where I happened to be sitting in the upper commons area, apparently to check on me, given the fact that I was an emotional mess. During the course of our conversation, she asked me what I thought of the movie and why I felt the way I did after the movie was over. Afterwards, we hugged and I thanked her for giving me a ride home, to which she smiled and replied "You're welcome", and we both went our separate ways.
I think you were wanting girl responses, but let me say that I have tears sometimes, especially towards the end of a romantic movie. Like forest gump and many others. It shows you have emotions. The kind of emotions that build great relationships. The kind that has real sincere love in them. Feelings for people. You can emphasize with people's when they have really bad luck or something terrible happens to their lives. If a guy is so hard faced that he can't even show teary eyes during something that's really sad, I'd say he's got some kind of emotional problem. I don't think many girls will say it's a turn off unless they have am emotional problem of some kind.
I'm not the type of girl who's comfortable around anyone when they cry - even if it is just a stray tear during a movie.
there is no way I'd consider a guy crying in a movie a turn off - but I don't think it would be a turn on either. It would just be one of those things. Maybe if it was the 'hot-shot macho guy' type who'd I'd only seen one side of - then it'd be a bit of a turn on because it showed the other side of him. But on the whole - it wouldn't really have that much effect on me.
i know to a lot of girls it would be a huge turn on - but I think there are many other, more substantial ways in which a guy can show emotion towards me than to a movie which would be more of a turn on.
Depends on the movie. If it's old yeller, yeah that's fine. Or if there's something in the movie that brings back something personal, like when a guy I was with cried during kramer vs. Kramer because it reminded him of his divorced parents, then sure, that's totally cool. If they're crying at something that doesn't seem terribly sad, but is instead just kind of maudlin, that'd seem a little girly to me.
They're just sensitive people or either they fake it to get into girl's pants. Depends on their other personality aspects. I'm female and I wouldn't be attracted to guy who can't hide such side of emotions, even when I have strength not to cry lol. It's just fun, guy cries :d

This might sounds cheesy, but the *only* time I every cried was a walk to remember. I literally cried my brains out.
Not because of the sadness, its because of the love and dedication that the husband demonstrated towards his wife. It was something I had never seen demonstrated to that level in a movie.
It's nothing I see as bad. As long as they're not balling over something that really shouldn't be cried over. Unless it means something to them. Other than that, I think it's good a guy can get in touch with their sensitive side once in a while. Doesn't make him any less macho.
Crying dun make a man less man, it is part of our emotion. I cry when I watch movies. I cry in showers. I cry many times for all different reasons.
i cry in the movie pearl harbor. Any my ex were crying with me too. I think its quite romantic.
I like it. Watched a movie with my guy last week, I almost cried and he had one tear or so. He had already seen the movie, I hadn't. I'm a bawler. I found it sexy. I like it, it means guys are not all 'macho'. I hate that society teaches us that certain emotions are for certain genders, like 'real men don't cry' crying is for girls. Um no it isn't! wtf. It takes a mature man in touch with his sensitive side to allow someone to see him get emotional. :)
For me its not a turn off, it shows sensitive side of him and I like that in a guy.As long as its not over board
I have a really macho, muscular guy friend who cried during the notebook. I thought it was adorable. I wasn't really turned on, simply because he's just a friend. But if a guy I liked teared up, it would be a good thing.
I honestly never seen a guy cry during a movie (expect my dad, he cries for everything) but I think it would be a turn on.
I think that's way hot if a guy cries in a movie it shows at least one guy in this world has emotions.
SOMETIMES VERY RARELY it can be cute but most of the time.no
i would think awwwh little cutie once he wasn't balling crying lol
I guess it would just go to prove to me that guys have feelings too. I'd be a bit surprised cos it's not something I've come across but no, it wouldn't be a turn off.
This actually happened to me and to be honest it was a major turn on. Now we aren't talking bawling, a few tears and acknowledgment of emotion. It made me happy he actually could feel.
