1.Holidate
Two unlucky-in-love adults (Emma Roberts and Luke Bracey) find themselves constantly bothered by relatives and friends when they show up to holiday parties single. So, they come up with an unconventional solution: be each other’s platonic dates to all the holiday get-togethers. It works like a charm…until they accidentally catch feelings.
2. The Perfect Date

3. To all the boys I’ve loved before
Teenager Lara Jean Covey (Lana Condor) is a hopeless romantic. She writes love letters to her crushes, never intending to send them. But, one day, her letters get mysteriously delivered to the various recipients (gasp!). Drama ensues, forcing her to explain the, uh, awkward situation to each of her crushes.
4. The kissing booth
Elle (Joey King) and Lee have been best friends their entire lives. Their friendship has rules, though, and a big one? Lee’s hot older brother, Noah, is romantically off-limits for Elle. But, that doesn’t stop her from having a crush…
5. Always be my maybe

6.Malcolm and Marie
In this somewhat troubling, though steamy, relationship depiction, filmmaker Malcolm becomes famous by telling the story of his girlfriend, Marie’s, life. The entire movie follows one night in their relationship—it just so happens that one night was a turning point.
7. Letters to Juliet
When a couple travels to Verona, Italy for a long-term stay, the woman (Amanda Seyfried—yes, again!) gets involved in a plan to find an older woman’s long-lost lover from the year 1957. Drama ensues, and some characters find unexpected romance in the process. Sounds about right.
