The 3 Best Romantic Comedies On Netflix This January
Now you don't have to scroll on Netflix for an hour just to find a good rom com to watch.
While Netflix has plenty of romance in their genre list, I can help you wade through all the duds.
You know that feeling when you want to watch a movie, but you’re so paralyzed by choice that you end up scrolling through the queue for an hour before ultimately giving up? Yeah, me too. I have a solution for you, though. I’ve combed through the rom coms to find the three best so you don’t have to. Now you have only three to pick from, as opposed to what feels like infinity. Read on for my recommendations for romantic comedies on Netflix in January.
Plus One (2019)
Maybe you’ll like this underrated rom com gem for the cute friends-to-lovers plot about two besties who agree to be each other’s plus ones for wedding season. Our maybe you, like the rest of us, have an understandable crush on Jack Quaid or Maya Erskine. Regardless, it’s time to watch this before its too late– Netflix is removing it from their list at the end of January.
The Lost City (2022)
When a romance novelist gets kidnapped, it’s up to her cover model to come to her rescue. Too bad he doesn’t know literally anything about rescuing someone from a remote island in the South Pacific. While this blockbuster came out in theaters in 2022, you may not have caught it since then. Maybe because, up until this month, it wasn’t available on Netflix. But now it is, so you have no excuse!
Happiness for Beginners (2023)
I have to be honest with you. This is my favorite romantic comedy of the last decade, period. A woman signs up for a beginner’s backpacking trip in order to find herself after her divorce. And, what do you know, her younger brother’s best friend has signed up, too. It’s a beautiful story with an interesting cast of characters and there’s a very good chance you’ll want to go backpacking after you watch this. It’s a Netflix original, so this is the only place you’ll get to see it.
