Top ten Valentine’s Day films
Draw me like one of the PLT girls
Titanic
The iconic love story of Jack and Rose aboard the tragic Titanic tops our charts as the ultimate Valentine’s Day film, but what if the age-old debate was there enough room on the door two? causes a rift between you and your partner?! Fear not! We know the sensual scenes in the lower decks will have already got you both closer than ever.
A Star is Born
In joint first place is A Star is Born, the heartbreaking story of true connection and creative passion that will have you in absolute pieces. Maybe don’t go with this if you intend to keep your mascara intact.
Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s stunning performance in A Star is Born will have you sobbing, so be warned, you are more likely to be crying yourself to sleep than climbing each other.
Love Actually
Controversially Love Actually comes third in our list. Although classed as a Christmas film, your heart still goes through the ups and downs of each story that Love Actually brings together. From Alan Rickman’s HEARTBREAKING deception to that kid running through security at the airport and Martine McCutcheon wrapping her thighs around Hugh Grant.
There’s Something About Mary
Rom-com classic There’s Something About Mary is packed with iconic 90’s outfits and hilarious scenes that will have you in stitches as four guys fight for Cameron Diaz aka Mary’s affection. The perfect nostalgia film just asking for you to wear the perfect pink dress and maybe get something stuck in your fringe…
The Duff
Thanks to Bella Thorne’s OnlyFans fiasco, Google searches for her naked and topless brought the coming of age flick The Duff into the top 5. On the edge between a romantic and a teen comedy the film follows the traditional teen plot of school hierarchy with a sickly sweet ending and added Bella Thorne.
The 40-year-old Virgin
Romantic comedy The 40-Year-Old Virgin made it into the top films to watch this Valentine’s Day, because like a fine wine Steve Carell and Paul Rudd are ageing beautifully, and we cannot get enough.
Cheering on the little guy in this all star cast comedy from steamy shower head scenes to a chest wax we follow Carell aka Andy on his quest to pop his cherry.
Fifty Shades of Grey
Based on E.L James famous novel, the adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey was originally released on Valentine’s weekend. The illustrious Mr Grey and Ana find themselves in our top ten not for the films outstanding plot line but for it’s more than PG sexy scenes that you can always use as inspiration…
Me Before You
The film that defines tearjerker, Me Before You is just one emotional moment after another until you’re a broken pile of sadness and a little bit of hope. The film follows Emilia Clarke as a companion for Sam Clafina’s character Will after a motorbike accident leaves him paralysed.
Just make sure Ben & Jerry are to hand as well as the tissues.
Fifty Shades Freed
The second of the Fifty Shades trilogy to make it into our top ten is the final instalment in the series, Fifty Shades Freed sees the pair enter the next phase of their lives with a glamorous wedding and honeymoon. Just in case you need to give any hints.
Bridesmaids
Romance takes a back seat in Bridesmaids, but it is only made sweeter by the love between friends. We follow Kristen Wiig as Annie from bachelorette to bridal shower as maid of honour to Maya Rudolph’s character Lillian. Bridesmaids although surrounded by romantic events is only made more hilarious by indecent behaviour and literal sh*t storms.
