The best rom-coms on Amazon Prime Video right now
A young man in a tank top and a woman walking opposite directions stop to look at one another in a scene from The Idea of You.

When it comes to a good rom-com, it needs to have a few elements. It has to make you both laugh and cry. It has to be aspirational or touching in some way, whisking you off into a magical place in your mind as you watch. But it also needs to be predictable, because a rom-com with an unexpected twist ending might not leave you feeling satisfied.

Looking for something that fits the bill? We have curated this list of the best rom-coms on Amazon Prime Video right now. There are classics as well as new movies, and a fabulous selection of Amazon Originals like the new movie starring Anne Hathaway, The Idea of You. Grab your pint of ice cream and a warm blanket, and cozy up to one of these great films.
