You can’t go wrong with a romantic comedy. This genre is perfect for a movie night with your friends or family. Especially around the holidays, the ideal movie is funny and romantic. These are my top five rom-coms you can enjoy anytime.
1.) How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
In my opinion, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days is one of the most classic rom-coms. In this movie, Andie Anderson (Kate Hudson) is assigned an article about what not to do in a relationship titled “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.” She has to find a guy and do all of the annoying things women do in relationships to try to drive him away. At the same time, Benjamin Berry (Matthew McConaughey) is trying to get a big pitch at work. In order to do so, he needs to make a woman fall in love with him in 10 days. They find each other and the rest is for you to find out!

2.) The Proposal
Starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, The Proposal will have you laughing and crying. Margaret Tate is Andrew Paxton’s boss, and their relationship is… complicated. To avoid being deported to Canada, Margaret marries Andrew in order to keep her visa status. The two are forced to spend a lot more time together in hopes of keeping their plan a secret.
3.9/5 stars
3.) Notting Hill
Notting Hill is one of those movies that you can watch over and over and never get tired of. Anna Scott (Julia Roberts) and William Thacker (Hugh Grant) live very different lives. When the two run into each other, their connection is undeniable. In this heartfelt movie, these love-struck opposites try to balance their movie star and bookseller lives to be together.
4.6/5 stars
4.) 27 Dresses
27 Dresses is one of my personal favorites. This romantic comedy starring Katherine Heigl and James Marsden features an enemies-to-lovers relationship and is perfect for a cozy movie night. In the movie, Jane Nichols (Katherine Heigl) is always a bridesmaid; she is always planning a bridal shower or helping her friends dress shop for their big day. When her younger sister gets engaged to the man she is secretly in love with, helping out with wedding plans gets significantly harder. Kevin Doyle (James Marsden) is a writer who specializes in wedding announcements. Jane and Kevin meet and form a complicated relationship.
4.4/5 stars
5.) Something Borrowed
Rachel (Ginnifer Goodwin) and Dex (Colin Egglesfield) have had a strong connection since college. When Rachel introduced Dex to her best friend, Darcy (Kate Hudson), a relationship was sparked, and the two ended up getting engaged later on, much to Rachel’s dismay. After a few too many drinks, Dex cheats on Darcy with Rachel. Who will Dex choose? What is more important to Rachel, Dex, or Darcy’s friendship?
