I don't know what the actual story is, but the premise the trailer(s) lead me to believe say it's far from a chick flick.
*shrug*
Not a theater watch for me, but I'll bump it to the top of my netflix list when it comes out.

Just read the Wikepedia blurb about it, it screams chick flick.
If you think a strong female lead, that doesn't use her feminine ways to get what she wants = chick flick... then you're right.
The ending is pure chick flick. I'm not going into it so I don't spoil the movie for the uninitiated.

There is no passion, there is serenity. There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the FORCE.

You mean they didn't end it the same way the book ends? Because the book was about as far from "chick flick" as you can get...
I'll be very disappointed if they changed it to that extent...
