Below, we compiled the best romantic movies that you can stream right now (they're all on Netflix!) that suit every occasion - from classic comedies to a musical filled with iconic actors.
A Musical Rom-Com Worth Watching Over and Over: 'Mamma Mia!'
People haven't stopped talking about Mamma Mia! since its sequel debuted in theatres a couple weeks ago, so Netflix decided to bring the original back for everyone's viewing pleasure. Based off of the 1999 musical, this 2008 version stars Amanda Seyfried, Meryl Streep, and more amazing actors (Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, etc., etc.) in a story about Sophie (Seyfried) attempting to find her birth father by inviting three of her mother's (Streep) exes to her wedding. Let's just say things get a little...complicated.
A LOL-Worthy Classic Comedy: 'How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days'
Look up "iconic" in the dictionary, and you'll find Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey together in this 2003 romantic comedy, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. Just try not to laugh when you watch Andie (Hudson) purposely try to get Ben (McConaughey) to break up with her for a story while Ben tries to get her to stay with him for a bet. It's a hilarious, beautiful mess.
A Sexy, Moody Indie: 'Blue Valentine'
Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams really turn up the heat in the 2010 drama/indie film Blue Valentine. Yes, at times it's a little depressing watching Gosling's and Williams' characters detail the ups and downs of their relationship, but it's guaranteed to get you and your date to cosy up together on the couch.
A Cute Coming-of-Age Drama: 'Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist'
Two words: Michael Cera. Based off of the novel of the same name, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist tells the story of - shocker - Nick (Michael Cera) and Norah (Kat Dennings), who meet in a club while searching for Norah's drunk best friend (relatable) and, well, you can probably guess what happens next...
A Nostalgic Teen Romance: 'A Cinderella Story'
Chad Michael Murray and Hilary Duff forever. After you and your date watch the modern (well, modern in 2004) remake of the original Disney movie, you two can reenact the romantic kiss in the rain at the football game that you tragically missed out on in high school.
A Drama (That, for All Intents and Purposes, Has Some Romance): 'Lion'
Lion was nominated for six (6!) Oscars. To put it simply, it's a great movie. Since this film is essentially required viewing for every person in his or her lifetime, your date will have you to thank for showing it to them. There may be a couple tears, but if it's #real it won't matter.
A Fun, Kid-Friendly Flick: 'Moonrise Kingdom'
This movie will make you want to go out and buy knee socks, pastels, and a portable record player. It features a loveable cast of characters - including a pair of young lovers who run away together and a scoutmaster played by Edward Norton—with a cheery plot that will make you believe that true love isn't, in fact, dead.
Netflix and Chill: 'Y Tu Mamá También'
Add Y Tu Mamá También (starring your Mozart in the Jungle fave Gael Garcia Bernal), a road trip movie best known for its ménage à trois scene, to your queue when the tone you want to set is "steamy." The sexual tension is everything.
