Valentine's Day is fast approaching, so we've got a list of some of the most romantic movies around to get you in the spirit of the season. Even if you're flying solo this Valentine's, these movies are bound to make you feel all warm and fuzzy!
#10. Shrek (2001)
What’s more
romantic than a quest to save a princess from a
fire-breathing dragon? Okay, maybe Shrek isn’t your classic knight in shining armor, but by the end of the flick he proves that
looks aren’t everything, and that even a big green ogre can get the girl. Plus, this movie is hilarious, and a
good sense of humor goes a long way in the love department.
#9. Save the Last Dance (2001)
Dancing is one of the most romantic things you can do, which is why
two movies about dancing make this list. A lot of movies have tried to duplicate this ‘dancing-girl-meets-boy from the wrong side of the tracks’ theme and have failed miserably. The key to this film’s is the
electric chemistry between
Julia Stiles and Sean Patrick Thomas. Just like in real love, sparks are something you just
can’t fake.
#8. Stardust (2007)
This
magical tale of a fallen star, flying pirates, and frightening witches, is really just a
romantic story about love. Tristan thinks he loves Victoria so in a romantic gesture he promises her
the stars. It turns out that the star is actually cutie
Clair Danes, and she eventually teaches our misguided hero about the power of
true love.
#7. The Princess Bride (1987)
The Princess Bride follows the
traditional fairy tale plot with a kidnapped princess, an
evil prince and a knight in shining armor. There's swashbuckling adventure, lots of humor and of course,
romance. The sets are magical and will
keep you mesmerized throughout the flick. It's the perfect feel-good fantasy to watch this
Valentine's Day.
#6. Ghost (1990)
Another
classic love story, this flick stars Demi Moore -
Ashton Kutcher’s wife - and '90s heart throb Patrick Swayze. Ghost is all about the power of love to conquer all, even death. The scene where Demi
spins a clay pot is ultra romantic, and the best thing about this flick is that it’s just
scary enough so that whoever you’re watching with might just squeeze you a little tighter.
