5 Fun Feel-Good Romantic Movies {Netflix #StreamTeam}

Romantic comedies are my favorite genre of movie, because, well, I am a breathing female. Ok, maybe you are too and you hate them, but this lady likes her romance and if it can be coupled with humor than you have just made my date night.

Mike and I have watched nearly every decent romantic movie that there is in the world, and I have started to despair a little that any legitimately good romantic comedy-type movies will ever be made again, but in the mean time I will just keep watching gems like these over and over and over again (which is incidentally super easy with Netflix streaming, just saying.) If you're in the market for a good romantic flick, then click click clickity click over and hit these up, they will not disappoint.

1) Silver Linings Playbook. I feel like maybe people were debating a lot about this movie a while ago, but since I deliberately stay clueless as to things that are trending, I only actually watched this rather recently with Mike and loooooved it. I hope that doesn't spark any old debates, or maybe there weren't any, I have no idea. I thought Robert DeNiro's character was completely hilarious and Bradly Cooper is a particular fav of mine and even though it is a little bit dark in some ways, I mostly just thought it was quirky and fun.

2) Roman Holiday. I am forever indebted to this movie for teaching me how to correctly crack an egg, (OOOPS! I confused this one with Sabrina, thanks, Fuzzy!) but I really loved how classy Greggory Peck is and all the shots of Rome were amazing and made me ache to go back.

3) Charade. I watched this years ago with Mike and loved it. I laughed a lot and loved the dynamic between Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn (more Audrey!). They don't make them like they used to (uh huh, right Ana). *

4) While You Were Sleeping. 90s Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman. Need I say anymore? This is one that I had not seen until this past year and Mike was a little aghast at that. It made for a super fun date night movie watch and allowed Mike to check another movie off of his "movies Ana must watch" list, he doesn't actually have a list.

5) 13 Going on 30. Say what you will about this one, but it holds a special, cheesy place in my heart. I would be embarrassed if I counted the number of times I watched this during college, toooooo many. But still, it's fun and feel-good all around a good romantic comedy.

What about you? What are your feel-good favs? I can only watch these so many times, so I am all ears!


* Update -- My movie obsessed husband says that Charade is more of a thriller/suspense than a romantic comedy, but it does have humor and a romance, so I'll still keep it here on the list.
