There is pleasure from watching the human experience. Films are entertaining, inspiring, and titilating.
Done correctly, they show the best and worst of humanity. I consider well done films as legitimate as literature in terms of value to society, influence, etc.
I don't think you have to identify with any characters in order to see the message in the film.

"The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers." (M. Scott Peck)
