In Search Of A Nice Romantic Comedy

[Grumpy Cat]

Had to take off from work again today due to "plumbing problems" and would very much like to watch a nice romantic comedy to help relax me. Anyone have any ideas?
(It would have to be available from Amazon or Netflix.)

"Romancing The Stone", best there is.

Is that a guy movie, Peace?

Oddly enough, it is both a girl and guy movie. Not a chick flick, but the women I know (for what that is worth), have all loved it.
PS. It stars Micheal Douglas.

I love Michael Douglas! He's a great actor. I'll give it a try then and let you know what I think of it. I'm sure you wouldn't pick a dud.

Be careful, I do have Aspergers you know.
Anyways, I am looking forward to your critique.

This isn't exactly "Romantic" but it is a comedy with Michael Douglas. How about The War of the Roses? It has some "romantic moments"

Now that's more like the romantic comedies I know!

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one. That is a good movie. It has elements that would appeal to both sexes; a funny chick-flick that guys can enjoy.

Or it's sequel, The Jewel of the Nile

My thinking about romantic comedies is...most of them don't really fit the term. In order for the term to fit, the movie has to be fundamentally a comedy, with "romantic" being a modifier. Most of those that I know are better called comic romances.

So, what's a good genuine romantic comedy? Amélie. (When you're reading the subtitles, understand that the word "scurf" originates from the French "peau mort", which translates literally as "dead skin". Now you know.)

I must disagree with you Matt, Everything about this movie is romantic starting with the title. Romance through out the movie and a romantic ending. Even the idea of the plot is a romantic one.
Sorry you don't feel that way but I respect our differences.
That being said, I think that holding the door for a lady is romantic. Some find it offensive.
