  • Mean Girls

    Yes, its about high school students, but its Tina Fey and its soooo good.

    See Lindsay Lohan sober for two whole hours (minus the party scene where she throws up from too much booze), and demonstrating some serious acting chops!

    Everything about this movie is fantastic. The writing, the acting, the light-heartedness of it (Maybe a chaser after Black Swan?), and of course, Tiny Fey, Amy Pohler, and Tim Meadows.

  • Margot At The Wedding

    Nicole Kidman is always great. But here shes really great.

    This Noah Baumbach film will have you laughing and cringing while watching Margot (Kidman) and Pauline (Jennifer Jason Leigh) fight only the way sisters can.

  • The Notebook

    Rachel MacAdams, Ryan Gosling, Gena Rowlands, and James Garner are all heart-breakingly fantastic in this Nicholas Sparks tear-jerker.

    Be prepared, though. Seeing men tackling each other afterwards will seem sooo barbaric.

  • Waitress

    Keri Russell is a sweet as the pies she serves in this comedy. Its the perfect film for anyone who has ever felt stuck in a situationlike 4 hours of football.

  • Vicky Christina Barcelona

    Woody Allen at his best.

    Vicky Christina Barcelona centers on Javier Bardem's (hilarious) relationships with three wildly different women: the indecisive Cristina (Scarlett Johannson), the practical Vicky (Rebecca Hall) and the fiery Maria Elena (Penlope Cruz).

    The perfect light-hearted romp that will surely have you Googling ticket prices to Spain afterwards.

    Oh, and you get to look at Javier Bardem for two hours.

  • About A Boy

    Funny, heart-breaking, sweet and thoughtful all in all a perfect movie.

    Based on the Nick Hornby book, About a Boy centers around Hugh Grant and his relationship with a teenager, and how it takes him from sleazy and womanizing to devoted and loving.

  • When Harry Met Sally

    It doesnt get much more romantic or comedic than this.

    Watch a young Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan portray a perfectly mismatched pair from college to middle age.

    Note the orgasm scene may even cause a pause on the football game!

  • Bridget Jones's Diary

    The first one.

    Renee Zelwegger (and Hugh Grant and Colin Firth) is hilarious in this romantic comedy (with a flawless British accent). Although youll be cringing for her many times, youll always be rooting for her.

  • Gone With The Wind

    Arguably the most classic and romantic movie of all time.

    Get entranced by Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh just have plenty of water and snacks on hand because it has a run time of over 4 hours!
