Whenever you are watching a movie, one of the most interesting aspects of the storyline will often involve any tension or chemistry between two characters. The audience is often left wondering whether or not anything will happen between the two. Sometimes, on-screen kisses seem dramatic and unexpected, and often the reason why is that they were actually completely unscripted. Here are some of the most surprising on-screen smooches that left an impression on viewers.

Part of what makes on-screen smooches so satisfying is the fact that the screenwriters will create so much palpable tension between the two characters that the audience is practically shouting at the screen for the two to get together. When it comes as a total, unscripted surprise, a kiss between two characters is exciting in a totally different way. When even one of the actors in the scene is surprised, the audience is guaranteed to be caught off guard.
