Best Romantic Movies to Watch on Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is a great day to cuddle up and watch a movie about love. Knowing this, they made a movie called Valentine’s Day, but it was just a rip-off of Love, Actually. With so many sappy movies out there, it’s hard to decide what to watch. Here are the best romantic movies ever made to watch on Valentine’s Day.

Nobody watches the WNBA because they look like men, but play like women…

While many romance movies are difficult for men to watch, Love & Basketball goes a long way into drawing men into this “chick flick” genre by incorporating an underlying sports theme. Quincy (Omar Epps) and Monica (Sanaa Lathan) meet on the basketball court as kids, and their love/hate relationship keeps their lives intersecting as they live their individual dreams of playing pro ball. If you’re young, enjoy sports, or crave passion, this movie’s for you.

Best Quote: Monica “It’s a trip, you know? When you’re a kid, you see the life you want, and it never crosses your mind that it’s not gonna turn out that way.”

Goldie Hawn is now an old woman, yet those lights are still up at Applebees…life’s a bitch…

Kate Hudson’s mom, Goldie Hawn, won an Oscar for her portrayal of Toni Simmons, a confused 21-year old woman in a relationship with an older man (Walter Matthau). Although it looks like an Austin Powers film, Hawn’s wit and charm allows you to still get into it. The intertwining love story about the various lies a dentist tells to keep a relationship was remade in 2011 by Adam Sandler in Just Go With It. So if you hate old movies, read about Cactus Flower and compare it to that one throughout so you look smart about pop culture.

Best Quote: Igor Sullivan (Rick Lenz) “You were going about it all wrong. I believe you’re supposed to put your head in the stove.”

Toni ” It’s a second hand stove. There were no directions.”

You have a receding hairline, but you’re rich and famous, so I’ll let it slide…

Although it’s one of those bleak comedies, Lost in Translation has a great romance at its heart. Bob Harris (Bill Murray) and Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson) really capture what it feels like to be travelling somewhere foreign and wanting a connection. The brief moments of Anna Farris spoofing Cameron Diaz add just the right amount of laughs to tide you over until the moment when Bob whispers something in Charlotte’s ear, and they say goodbye. If V-Day makes you blah, you’ll most def wanna check this one out.

Best Quote: Bob “Can you keep a secret? I’m trying to organize a prison break. I’m looking for, like, an accomplice. We have to first get out of this bar, then the hotel, then the city, and then the country. Are you in or you out?”

I have a feeling this broad is high maintenance…

Although Forgetting Sarah Marshall is Kristen Bell’s most popular role, 2010′s When in Rome is an underrated film. She plays Beth, an ambitious New Yorker who steals some coins from a famous love fountain in Italy during her sister’s wedding. Because of her theft, she’s chased down by Danny DeVito, Will Arnett, Jon Heder, and Dax Shepard, who are under a love spell. The movie is lighthearted, funny, and a great way to create and celebrate a happy Valentine’s Day.

Best Quote: Beth “It’s like, I meet a guy, and I think it’s great, and anyone else would just be thinking about how much greater it’s going to get. And I’m constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop.”

I don’t remember telling you I’d give you head daily, but what do I know?

You’d be hard pressed to come up with a more likeable couple of people than Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. In 50 First Dates, they’re in Hawaii, and after they meet, Henry Roth (Sandler) turns from a playboy to a devoted boyfriend—the only problem is the girl of his dreams has no short-term memory, so she relives the same day over and over. This movie brings laughs, but it’s also a sappy romance movie as only Sandler can do. It’s a chick flick anyone can enjoy.

Best Quote: Dr. Keats (Dan Akroyd) “Sometimes I wish my wife had Goldfield Syndrome. That way she wouldn’t remember last night when I called her mother a loud, obnoxious drunk with a face like J. Edgar Hoover’s ass.”

I’m no longer a slumdog…I’m a lowly intern at a NY news station…

A testament to just how far guys are forced to go to win over a woman,Slumdog Millionaire portrays a poor man being tortured by the police for being too good at Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? This is one of those intelligent and witty movies that won a lot of critical acclaim. It’s great to watch with someone when you want to share an intelligent conversation. Dev Patel plays one of the most lovable characters on film at his later age, and the mixture of love, violence, and socioeconomic messages makes for a great date night screening

Best Quote: Jamal Malik (Patel) “When somebody asks me a question, I tell them the answer.

Why do you always make me put on this mask when we make love?

Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) always has problems—the media hates him, the police hate him, other superheroes hate him, and he’s constantly struggling with his love life because of it. Regardless of how you feel about the new Spider-Man series, they made the right move dropping Mary Jane for Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone). Their romance is one of the most memorable in comic book history (spoiler alert: she dies).

Best Quote: Peter Parker “We all have secrets: the ones we keep… and the ones that are kept from us.”

My Brad Pitt sprung a leak again…he looks like a pirate…

It’s not just that Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie are beautiful people; the location shots in Paris and Venice are simply stunning. This cat-and-mouse tale has enough thrills going for it to satisfy your intellectual needs, and some action to boot. You’re never quite sure who to believe, but you can’t deny there’s chemistry between the two—if there’s anyone who could steal Jolie from Pitt, Depp seems like the type. If you want even more beauty, Jolie has great sex scenes in Original Sin.

Best Quote: Hotel Waiter Guido “Bongiorno!”

Frank Taylor (Depp) “Bon Jovi!”

I wasn’t accusing you of overcompensating; I just said it’s a really big pig…

Reese Witherspoon is a Valentine’s Day treat you won’t soon forget. All of her romantic comedies are great, but This Means War wins for mixing spy-vs-spy action into the mix. Chris Pine and Tom Hardy do a great job of keeping men distracted from Reese’s message that it’s OK to date multiple people. Adventurous couples will love this action-packed romp.

Best Quote: Trish (Chelsea Handler) “Don’t go with the better guy, go with the guy who makes you better.”

Haha, no seriously, keep calling me quirky, and I’ll throw you off this roof…

Zooey Deschanel is that quirky girl everyone wants to be or be with. Basically the boy (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) meets a girl (Deschanel), and falls in love, but she’s not into it. The movie highlights their relationship in a non-linear fashion, and is a great portrayal of modern love and relationships. If you’re the romantic type, (500) Days of Summer will make you believe true love exists.

Best Quote: Narrator “If Tom had learned anything… it was that you can’t ascribe great cosmic significance to a simple earthly event. Coincidence, that’s all anything ever is, nothing more than coincidence… Tom had finally learned—there are no miracles. There’s no such thing as fate, nothing is meant to be. He knew, he was sure of it now”
