50 Best Romantic Comedies of All Time

Rom-coms you’ll swoon over

When you’re in need of a little escape, there’s nothing more delightful than romantic comedy movies. These sweet, funny movies generally have a happy ending, leaving you with feel-good vibes for the rest of the day. On top of that, they cross backgrounds and cultures, giving rom-coms universal appeal. While we love sweeping romances and sad movies, too, sometimes you just need everything wrapped up in a neat package.

There are actors and actresses who have literally made their careers out of starring in romantic comedy movies, like Meg Ryan, who just might be the queen of the genre. From Sleepless in Seattle to When Harry Met Sally…, Ryan’s characters search for love in ways that make us root for her every time. But wait—don’t forget about Sandra Bullock, Julia Roberts, and Drew Barrymore, who also make a few appearances on this list with some of our favorite leading men.

So, are you ready to fall in love over and over again? Cancel your plans for the day (and get some popcorn), because we’ve rounded up 50 of the best rom-coms of all time. To narrow things down, we took into account each movie’s staying power, box office numbers, and awards-show buzz around the time of release. Some of them are classics that qualify as the best movies of all time, while others are newer romantic movies on Netflix, but they’re all pretty darn perfect in all the right ways.
