60 Best Romantic Comedy Movies of All Time
Cute, funny or a teensy bit cheesy, these rom-coms make us catch feelings in all the best ways.

The meet-cute. The heartstring-tugging speech. The kiss in the softly falling snow. The moment when you think they hate each other. When it comes to romantic movies, the rom-com formula doesn't always get the respect it deserves. And that's a shame, especially since these movies have delivered so many of our favorite iconic film moments. "I'll have what she's having," anyone? And now that we've got streaming services serving up decades of our favorites (check out these romantic comedies on Netflix for starters) we can laugh and cry to our little hearts' content.
When it comes to finding the best romantic comedy movies of all time, we've got an embarrassment of riches on our hands. How can you choose one "you-had-me-at-hello" speech over another "I want the rest of my life to start as soon as possible?" Here are a few of our favorite sexy, screwball, sci-fi and even superhero stories that prove love is real.
