The 10 Best Romantic Comedies To Watch

Grab the popcorn, a housemate and a pair of cosy PJs: it’s movie night, and it’s about to get giggly. From 90’s classics to present-day bangers; I’ve picked out the best-of-the-best romantic comedies to watch so you don’t have to.

1. Miss Congeniality

Sandra Bullock kicks ass in this FBI-agent-turns-undercover-pageant-queen classic.

2. The Ugly Truth

Are couples only bound by sex? Watch Gerard Butler try to prove his rather pessimistic theories to the lovelorn Katherine Heigl.

3. Legally Blonde

Behind Reese Witherspoon’s white-toothed smile lies an ab workout in disguise; prepare to clutch your sides with a hell-of-a-lot of laughter. Oh, and there are dogs in it too.

4. 10 Things I Hate About You

Before he donned his Joker face paint, Heath Ledger showed us that he was something of a heartthrob in this teen flick.

5. She’s The Man

Loosely based on Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, let’s pretend we’re watching this hilarious rom-com for educational purposes and not for Channing Tatum’s shirtless torso – no, that would be ridiculous.

6. Clueless

Another film based on a literary classic, Clueless reinvents  Jane Austen’s Emma to follow teen queen Cher’s attempts to pair off her friends. Disaster ensues.

7. Mean Girls

Queue the film that bought us Glen Coco: crammed with brilliant one-liners, this high school comedy has become something of a cult-classic.

8. How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days

True to its namesake, watch Kate Hudson try to date and lose her new boyfriend (Matthew McConaughey) within 10 days.

9. Bridget Jones’ Diary

Pride and Prejudice just got a makeover: this cringe-worthy comedy is definitely one to add to the to-watch list (and not just to watch a young Colin Firth and Hugh Grant in that fight scene).

10. 500 Days of Summer

Cute and quirky, this unconventional rom-com defies the traditional boy-gets-girl plotline.

11. Pretty Woman

If it’s got Julia Roberts in it, I’m there. Pretty Woman has it all: laughs, tears and an incredibly catchy soundtrack.

12. Notting Hill

Julia Roberts strikes again, this time with a bumbling Hugh Grant in tow. Quintessentially British, this laugh-out-loud film will have you moving to London in a flash.

13. About Time

Richard Curtis’ latest rom-com is well-deserved of its high praise. Prepare for giggles, sobs and, erm, time travel (not as strange as it sounds).

14. 27 Dresses

Imagine being a bridesmaid twenty seven times. Or just watch this chuckle-packed must-see.

15. Devil Wears Prada

Meryll Streep and Anne Hathaway prove their goddess statuses in this uh-mazing book-turned-film.
