Romantic comedies are the best way to while away a lazy afternoon with your sweetheart. They are light, funny, and have that ‘awwww’ factor in them that no one can resist. In this article, we’ll give you a list of some of the best ones!
If there’s one thing that I simply cannot stand, it is people who underestimate the ‘power’ (for lack of a better word) that romantic comedies have over the mood of people. Most of these (people who underestimate the said power) may be men who’d rather down a few beers than watch a chick flick that gives us women unrealistic expectations about love, life and all that. But even they cannot deny that when compelled to sit and watch one, they enjoy it just as much as we women do, so why the farce? You don’t see us shying away from war or action movies. So, if we can accept that action movies rock, you can accept that rom-coms do too! And if you intend to prove us wrong, all you have to do is watch some movies from this list and tell us exactly what you don’t like about them.
The A-Z of Romantic Comedies
Alright then, given below is a list of some of the most loved romantic comedies. Take your pick, watch them, and try to find out what’s not likable about them. Think carefully before you challenge any woman about any movie on this list. We hold romantic comedies at a very high pedestal in our lives. They are our true friends who never let us down, and no woman in her right mind will tolerate a word against them. Good luck!
