Grab the popcorn, a housemate and a pair of cosy PJs: it’s movie night, and it’s about to get giggly. From 90’s classics to present-day bangers; I’ve picked out the best-of-the-best romantic comedies to watch so you don’t have to.<\/p>\n

1. Miss Congeniality<\/h2>\n

Sandra Bullock kicks ass in this FBI-agent-turns-undercover-pageant-queen classic.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

2. The Ugly Truth<\/h2>\n

Are couples only bound by sex? Watch Gerard Butler try to prove his rather pessimistic theories to the lovelorn Katherine Heigl.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

3. Legally Blonde<\/h2>\n

Behind Reese Witherspoon’s white-toothed smile lies an ab workout in disguise; prepare to clutch your sides with a hell-of-a-lot of laughter. Oh, and there are dogs in it too.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

4. 10 Things I Hate About You<\/h2>\n

Before he donned his Joker face paint, Heath Ledger showed us that he was something of a heartthrob in this teen flick.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

5. She’s The Man<\/h2>\n

Loosely based on Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night<\/em>, let’s pretend we’re watching this hilarious rom-com for educational purposes and not for Channing Tatum’s shirtless torso – no, that would be ridiculous.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

6. Clueless<\/h2>\n

Another film based on a literary classic, Clueless <\/em>reinvents\u00a0 Jane Austen’s Emma <\/em>to follow teen queen Cher’s attempts to pair off her friends. Disaster ensues.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

7. Mean Girls<\/h2>\n

Queue the film that bought us Glen Coco: crammed with brilliant one-liners, this high school comedy has become something of a cult-classic.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

8. How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days<\/h2>\n

True to its namesake, watch Kate Hudson try to date and lose her new boyfriend (Matthew McConaughey) within 10 days.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

9. Bridget Jones’ Diary<\/h2>\n

Pride and Prejudice <\/em>just got a makeover: this cringe-worthy comedy is definitely one to add to the to-watch list (and not just to watch a young Colin Firth and Hugh Grant in that <\/em>fight scene).<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\n<\/h6>\n

10. 500 Days of Summer<\/h2>\n

Cute and quirky, this unconventional rom-com defies the traditional boy-gets-girl plotline.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

11. Pretty Woman<\/h2>\n

If it’s got Julia Roberts in it, I’m there. Pretty Woman <\/em>has it all: laughs, tears and an incredibly catchy soundtrack.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

12. Notting Hill<\/h2>\n

Julia Roberts strikes again, this time with a bumbling Hugh Grant in tow. Quintessentially British, this laugh-out-loud film will have you moving to London in a flash.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

13. About Time<\/h2>\n

Richard Curtis’ latest rom-com is well-deserved of its high praise. Prepare for giggles, sobs and, erm, time travel (not as strange as it sounds).<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

14. 27 Dresses<\/h2>\n

Imagine being a bridesmaid twenty seven times<\/em>. Or just watch this chuckle-packed must-see.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

15. Devil Wears Prada<\/h2>\n

Meryll Streep and Anne Hathaway prove their goddess statuses in this uh-mazing book-turned-film.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n
