23 romantic comedies worth watching this Valentine's Day
Lars and The Real Girl (2007)
People have done a lot of things with sex dolls, but giving one the starring role in a comedy-drama is surely a first. Lars uses Bianca – an anatomically-correct doll – as a device to gradually cure his social awkwardness and join his community. It's both heart-warming and funny in equal measures – ideal Valentine's viewing.
10 Things I Hate About You (1999)
Relocating Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew to a high school, this is a star-packed delight, teaming up everyone from the Joker (Heath Ledger) to Robin (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and Julia Styles of Bourne film fame. Keep your eyes peeled for the Shakespeare references, of which there are many.
The Science of Sleep (2006)
A love story about a man (Gael Garcia Bernal) effectively living in his imagination and dreams, while trying to court a French girl. A tale any geek can relate to – and one that's lifted by Michel Gondry's handcrafted, whimsical direction.
I Love You, Man (2009)
When a loner dude (Paul Rudd) needs a best man for his impending nuptials, it selts off a hilarious hunt for a friend begins. Okay, this is more com than rom – but with the likes of Lou Ferrigno, J.K. Simmons, Aziz Ansari and Andy Samburg there’s no way you or your significant other cannot enjoy this.

Great list and am very impressed at the breadth of the selection. All time classics like the peerless His Girl Friday and modern-day gems such as Shaun Of The Dead.
Surprised at the omission of When Harry Met Sally. It's universally acknowledged as one of the great modern rom-coms and would have got you nearer to a standard 25 film list.
Other contenders? Roxanne, Gregory's Girl, Sideways, Cosi, While You Were Sleeping, Jump Tomorrow, Harold and Maude.
