Even while a romantic dinner for two with a breathtaking view may sound like the ideal scenario, sometimes a simple movie is just enough to do the trick. To save you the extra hour it would take to search through titles and read random reviews, we’ve put up a selection of 15 excellent movies. Scroll down for the greatest date night movies to get you in the mood, including sentimental cult favorites and romantic comedies.
1. 50 First Dates (2004)
Breakfast dates are frequently a wise choice (especially with waffles). Not as loaded as a dinner date. Of course, unless your date has amnesia. There are many first dates in this comedy starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore, but the best one is always the real, honest first date.
2. Roman Holiday (1953)
Nothing is, for some reason, more seductive than an Audrey Hepburn film, and this story of a princess who goes undercover is perfect for a first date. Likewise, don’t be afraid to let yourself become engrossed at the moment because that is what these movies are all about.
3. Serendipity (2001)
This romantic comedy begins with a classic meet-cute that turns into a very epic first date. Sara (Kate Beckinsale) and Jonathan (John Cusack), who met by coincidence at Bloomingdales, spend the day eating dessert, enjoying ice skating, and searching for signs around New York City that indicate their destiny is together.
4. Titanic (1997)
Jack and Rose chose to ignore their differing social positions and go on a first date that was all about enjoying the moment. After an uncomfortable dinner with her upper-class companions, they spend the rest of the evening dancing below decks and falling in love on the fatal ship.
5. 10 Things I Hate About You (1999)
Was their first date indeed real or not? Given the issue of paid seduction, that is questionable. But as long as your date knows what to dress in advance, Patrick (Heath Ledger) and Kat’s (Julia Stiles) paintball adventure looks like a perfect method to avoid first-date strangeness.
6. Notting Hill (1999)
It takes guts to invite a famous actress to a dinner party. But what makes this first date scene so hilarious is that one of the guests doesn’t recognize her. Introduce your date to your friends since there is no better way to gauge the possibilities of a relationship, and Anna (Julia Roberts) more than passed the test with William’s (Hugh Grant) crew.
7. Autumn in New York (2000)
Central Park on a stunning fall day is one of the most romantic places to go on a first date. Therefore, it is picture-perfect when Charlotte (Winona Ryder) and Will (Richard Gere) meet there for a stroll. A spectacular first date includes the poetry recital and her smart technique of stealing his watch.
8. Hitch (2005)
Will Smith plays “Hitch,” a dating expert who tries to help one of his customers earn the affection of the woman he loves. Hitch learns that he still has a lot to learn about love and relationships when he tries to use his tried-and-true strategies with an attractive writer.
9. Before Sunrise (1995)
The central idea of this romantic comedy about two strangers who meet on a train traveling from Budapest to Vienna is that love is all about taking chances. Ethan Hawke’s character, Jesse, persuades Julie Delpy’s character, Céline, to accompany him on his final night in Europe as they stroll across the city and talk about everything.
10. You’ve Got Mail (1998)
Joe Fox (Tom Hanks), the owner of a book superstore, and Kathleen Kelly (Meg Ryan), the owner of an independent bookstore, fall in love over the Internet, both completely unaware that he is attempting to put her out of business. What will occur when she discovers the truth at last?
11. The Proposal (2009)
An anxious book editor makes plans to marry her overworked assistant when she learns that she may soon be deported to Canada. Despite his acceptance, she learns that her problems are far from finished because of a suspicious immigration official who thinks something is wrong.
12. La La Land (2016)
Want to impress your partner with your performance skills? Prepare your vocal chords and sing along with the La La Land actors as they describe the romance between a jazz musician and an aspiring actress as they pursue their goals in Los Angeles.
13. Crazy, Stupid, Love (2011)
Carell plays Cal Weaver, a prosperous middle-aged man who appears to have it all, with a stunning wife and a lovely home. But after discovering that his wife had cheated on him, she insisted on seeking a divorce, leaving him unmarried and clueless about the dating scene. Jacob Palmer, the star player, may have given Cal a chance to find love again.
14. Casablanca
Nothing makes a date seem nearly as special as a classic movie, and the original Casablanca is one of the most classic films ever made. Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall’s love story alone makes the movie worthwhile, and if your date isn’t in tears by the time As Time Goes By rolls around they’re officially dead inside.
15. Date Night (2010)
Without the ultimate date-night film, complete with a bizarre twist that sounds like every couple’s worst nightmare, this list wouldn’t be complete. greats of comedy Carell and Fey portray a married couple attempting to enliven their marriage. They decide to go out on a whim and have a romantic night, but a minor misunderstanding puts them in grave danger.
