Movies I’ve watched
~ Pandemic 2020

1) Before Sunrise (1995)

"Isn't everything we do in life a way to be loved a little more"
Probably the most honest representation of joy and pain of young love.
9/10

2) Silver Linings Playbook (2012)
"I opened up to you, and you judged me"
Life: Trauma, Therapy, Sadness, Family & Happiness
A happily ever after story...kinda!
7/10

3) Begin Again (2013)
Nothing more romantic than an audio Jack splitter and listening to the songs together in the bus or walking on street
Overall a surprisingly good non musical movie about music & love
7/10

4) Easy A (2010)
More of Lazy A but still fun
6/10

5) Crazy, Stupid, Love (2011)
Not as good as it should be yet better than it could have been ...funny, amusing, romantic and a twist
7/10

6) The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012)
"We accept the love we think we deserve"
One of my favorites, it's so simple but so deep! Sometimes, words are meaningless. Silence and eyes explain our inner thoughts.
8/10

7) The Fault in Our Stars (2014)
" I fell in love with him the way you fall asleep; slowly, and then all at once"
Apparently, the world is not a wish granting factory! Totally liked the movie and chemistry between the two leds.
Some flaws, but still beautiful nonetheless!
7/10

8) The Edge of Seventeen (2016)
Predictable but fun and charming...fifty shades of a complicated teenager
5/10

9) The Notebook (2004)
" If you're a bird, I'm a bird"
Behind every love there is a story (forget the great), the notebook is romantic melodrama that has its moment I guess
8/10

10) No String Attached (2011)
Nothing really new, but still enjoyable and well executed
6/10

11) The Proposal ( 2009)
This is a good movie, as long as one remembers what a romcom is and what it is not...
5/10

12) Friends with Benefits (2011)
It's similar to 'No String Attached' but much better!
A standard RomCom with Charming Leads
7/10

13) Passengers ( 2016)
This movie could have been better, but overall pretty good movie!
Starts pretty well, but then end up going, well, nowhere ...
5/10

14) The Great Gatsby (2013)
More than a flashy party!
Everything about this movie is beautiful. Its nostalgic, its got character! Takes a while to settle in, but great overall.
7/10

15) Knocked Up (2007)
Predictable and not always particular funny, but always engaging and somewhat endearing ...had its moments but pretty overrated!
5/10

16) This is 40 (2012)
This is a short of sequel to 'Knocked Up'.
Ups and downs but overall...funny in parts, too long!
6/10

17) 50/50 (2011)

50/50, A chance worth taking!
Beautifully simple! It'll make you laugh and cry at the same time
8/10

18) Forrest Gump (1994)
No one does it better than Tom Hank
He has an eventful life, one full of ups and downs! A bit sad also very humorous! A great film controlled by its lead man...A must watch.

19) The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005)

It is a hilarious adult comedy followed by quite a justified love story and ends how a true love story would end...surprisingly good!
7/10

20) Kick-Ass (2010)

You'll not be bored with this story, this movie was ahead of its time and is severely underrated. Movies like 'Deadpool' thrives off the combination of comedy and grit that kick-ass has started!
8/10

21) V for Vendetta (2005)

"People should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of their people"
Intelligent film with political criticism, V for victorious!
7/10

22) Five Feet Apart (2019)

Reminds me of the Fault in our Stars!
Started well ended poorly!
Still worth a watch, but be prepared to be let down.
7/10

23) The Half of It (2020)

A highschool love triangle with all the cliches but still unique!
This might be the one of the best Netflix movie this year .
"Love is selfish, impatient, and its not about finding your other half"
6/10

24) La La Land (2016)
This movie is all about ending!
It would have just been a simple rom-com, but instead, it is something much greater.
A perfect Musical Classic , also if you don't like musicals mute it and enjoy its masterful cinematography
9/10

25) Life as We Know It (2010)
Babies can make wonders!
It is little longer than most of the romcoms but not boring! There is a good vibe to whole movie & co star performances as well which spice things up
7/10

26) Drive (2011)
An absolute Masterpiece!
The acting, action and soundtracks are amazing. i love the fact that, the movie doesn't have much dialogue but yet it feels so emotional, probably best of this decade, go yourself a favor and watch this! Background Score
8/10

27) The Girl Next Door (2004)
Teenage fantasy comes true, nicer than what i expected! I went into this expecting more like of American pie type movie instead get pleasantly surprised by its storyline!
7/10

28) Notting Hill (1999)
"I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her"
Believe it. Feel it.
This is what you call a 'feel good movie', 'cause it sure made you feel good.
Worth give it a watch ...even if its only for Julia Roberts!!!
8/10

29) The Departed (2006)
'Moles and Rats'
This movie is mental rollercoaster that'll make you feel you many things all at once, this one is definitely all it is hyped to be...Scorsese at his best
9/10

30) Gladiator (2000)
This one is very excellent in the visual side! A tale of Honor, Betrayal and Vengeance. The acting, Joaquin Phoenix in particular is terrific for such evil roleplay
8/10

31) Love Actually (2003)
When I was young and successful, i was greedy and fool and now i'm left with no one. wrinkled & alone!
There were so many storylines going on , still a happy film overall! Yea, Loved it actually.
7/10

32) 500 Days of Summer (2009)
'500 days of summer' really a punch in the gut! Not a Love Story but A Story About Love. I recently watched this after hearing for almost 2 years that it was brilliant I expected it to fall short of my expectations but I got surprised..too good
9/10

33) The Spectacular Now (2013)
“It's fine to live in the now. But the best thing about now is that there's another one tomorrow. I'm gonna start makin' them count.”

5/10

34) Blended (2014)
Nothing extraordinary but good fun!
Someone suggested me this, and I wasn't expecting much, but i was pleasantly surprised. anyone wanting to enjoy a funny & touching film with family should definitely give this one a shot
7/10

35) Yes Man (2008)
Say yes to classic Jim Carrey!
Overall this one is good in comedy, obviously because of jim and will definitely make you smile, feel better ...coulda have been better thou
6/10

36) All the Bright Places (2020)
Watch it for what is silently says, watch it for experience! Tragically Happy story! Heartbreaking story with so much happiness weaved in. Can't say much more without spoiler, give it a shot for once
5/10

37) Atonement (2007)
Atonement always ranks my top, this one took a specific space in my heart.
Pleasure of eyes, would strongly recommend if you wanna watch a real good movie ...A heartbreaking and sweeping romance that succeeded in every imaginable way!
9/10

38) Fight Club (1999)
After watching this movie nearly 21 years after i can see clearly why this remains an absolute classic. One of smartest movie I've ever seen, character development is incredible and the cinematography was spectacular
The first rule of fight club is...
9/10

39) Eyes Wide Shut (1999)
Fear and desire 'eyes wide shut '
One of the greatest although I still hadn't figure out everything, need to watch it again soon!
This one is curiously unfulfilling but still pretty, last one of Kubrick's masterpiece
7/10

40) Vanilla Sky (2001)
"We will meet again someday when we are both cats"
i've read a few of the other comments and although i pity those who didn't understand this!
I do aggre with the criticism which in a strange way makes me like this movie all the more
9/10

41) Jerry Maguire (1996)
Despite the mix of many genres, this is well balanced one!
Sport/Drame/Romance/Capitalism...An American Classic.
8/10

42) The Big Sick (2017)
Love the story and and the characters, and was pleasantly surprised to learn that its based on lead's one real life story with wonderful sort of dryness to humor which is what really makes the movie to worth the watch
7/10

43) Se7en (1995)
Fincher's best after 'fight club'
A must watch if you like serial killer movie with blood 'n gore...but I bet the idea will more hit you than this!
Best of its category.
8/10

44) How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003)
A sight for all eyes and a smile for all faces! Kinda predictable story but sweet on its own way, kate Hudson is delightful to watch!
7/10

45) Pride and Prejudice (2005)
"You've bewitched me, body and soul.."
The movie itself is just beautiful, no matter how many times you watch, everytime you'll find something new to appreciate. I can't say enough but recommend it to all, must watch.
8/10

46) Chemical Hearts (2020)
Heartbreakingly beautiful...very deep and realistic, not your usual shallow teenager movie!
Can anyone fix broken people and broken hearts? ...No! People are broken, but they aren't ours to fix.
7/10

47) Mean Girls (2004)
Better than I expected, but i didn't expect much...the reason to love this film is its characters-not storyline.
6/10

48) A Star Is Born (2018)
An interesting premise and a good story but nothing new! It was just another musician who does drugs, nothing special...Lady Gaga was amazing btw!
Overrated, a little weak,IMO...could have been much better
6/10

49) Set It Up (2018)
Fun, was kinda predictable, but i enjoyed it all the way through.
The jokes were hit & miss, but the chemistry b/w the leads made up for that!
6/10

50) Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010)
"If we're going to date you may have to defeat my seven evil exes"
A good time, smart, funny and very enjoyable to watch. Sort of comic book, action musicals and romance flick...very cool and all for shorts.
7/10

51) Midnight in Paris (2011)
Love in paris, it exists an old song about that! The story is interesting, enjoyable and nostalgic.
Completely hooked! All i want to say that i'm totally in love with this gorgeous piece of art.
8/10

52) The Ugly Truth (2009)
Not bad but could have been better, but overall it's a good entertainer, surely it didn't want nominated for any Oscars...so if you want a little fun, go 'n watch, unwind and laugh until it hurts.
7/10

53) What Happens in Vegas (2008)
A typical romantic-comedy, not so much to story but delivers a lot of laughs. Though it does get somewhat of boring after the first half! Its alright.
Watch it or don't
6/10

54) Up in the Air (2009)
Life's better with the company. This isn't a kind of breathtaking or mind Twister thing, instead gives you something about changing in people's life.
6/10

55) The Terminal (2004)
One of the great underrated films! I didn't know what to expect when i sat down to watch this one, but wow was i surprised. Great film, full of heart and warmth.
Tom Hank gives a wonderful performance, but then again when doesn't he?
7/10

56) Wedding Crashers (2005)
Silly but excellent.
The humor maybe a bit near the knuckle but the chemistry b/w the leads more than makes up for it.
Its a relaxing comedy (read no brainer), a bit long but slightly romantic.
6/10

57) 50 First Dates (2004)
"Nothing beats a first Kiss"
Wonderful romcom about a man who falls in love with a girl who forgets everything the day before when she goes to sleep at night! Overall a must watch with beautiful Hawaiian location ..I adore Drew Barrymore
7/10

58) The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008)
....but when it comes to end, you've to let go! It has been compared with Forrest gump and big fish and justified to some extent, with Fincher directing it you can easily expect great cinematography. Visual, Acting Beauty.
8/10

59) Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008)
What did I just watch?
Average comedy can't say it was even strong in-jokes, basically nothing special. I just tried it for Mila Kunis...disappointed!
5/10

60) Clueless (1998)
everyone's clueless! we're all clueless and no matter how popular we might be, real losers.
Alicia Silverstone is sweet and innocent as 'Cher', she really deserve a lot of praise for this movie, it would be nothing without her performance.
6/10

61) 10 Things I Hate About You ( 1999)
"It's not everyday you find a girl who'll flash someone to get you out of detention"
Masterpiece of 90's teen comedy, Period.
I just don't know what else I can say about it, its fun! Watch it at least once in your life
8/10

62) Say Anything... (1989)
Pleasent surprise! i was never expecting to enjoy this movie as much as i did. The character has depth, the story feels real, the romance is wonderful, and some of scenes are classics, like one this given below...Like it every time I see it.
7/10

63) Lady Bird (2017)
The ways we remember things and not how things were...this is how life i remembered, in moments, silvers, glances! more over Greta Gerwig creates a female lead character that is completely wonderful and being true to oneself.
6/10

64) Blue Valentine (2014)
Happy endings are a myth, This movie seems more realistic to me!
Its painful to watch yet so beautifully done. I just constantly thought about it, how honest of observation on relationship it is.
Watch it, who hasn't yet. Hope u enjoy.
9/10

65) American Beauty (1999)
I read a little summary of it and made an assumption about it, but the description was misleading. When I finally watched the movie I was pleasantly surprised. This is one of those few movies that you'll remember for long...just watch it!
8/10

66) Into the Wild (2007)
Very Artsy, very slow, very hard to switch off! overall, a fascinating true story, about a middle class stubborn college student who just dropped himself out of society and living off in wilderness. From the holding to the letting go "Into the wild"
7/10

67) Me Before You (2016)
This one is beyond beautiful and the aura that it creates is beyond feelings, admired every scene!
Even Emilia Clarke in dorky dresses was absolute sublime, and its worth watching just because of her, well, it was my reason anyway
7/10

68) The Lake House (2006)
Love conquers all, Even time!
It turned out to be way better than I expected, it is perfect in its own wonderful way...
"Magic mailbox of a fascinating glass House" must watch!
8/10

69) Flipped (2019)
Unexpected Gem A Hidden Jewel
I had zero expectation when i was about to watch this, had never heard of it, hadn't seen any trailer, Nothing! Then I was surprised, it has beautiful story and characters whom you'll fall in love with at once, don't miss it
9/10

70) Room (2015)
horrifying, beautiful and amazing.
Brie Larson and Little Jacob - applauds! Don't know how to describe my thoughts and feelings about their acting, it was really touching.
its not an easy movie to watch but its well worth your time.
7/10

71) Always Be My Maybe (2019)
I gotta say this movie was way better than I expected, better than crazy rich Asian. It is great lighthearted romcom that you can enjoy without thinking, the leads had chemistry and i loved how they tied it altogether.
7/10

72) Edward Scissorhands (1990)
Edward Scissorhands isn't perfect but it is magical nonetheless! The story is heart-warming, funny and touching
This is arguably Tim Burton's best and i defy anyone to watch this and not fall completely in love with it. Beautiful Masterpiece
8/10

73) It's Kind of a Funny Story (2010)
Its kind of a good movie, many more flows through this, funny is just the icing. Nicely do, not to pandering and a worth watch!
7/10

74) The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society (2018)
I found myself wanting to see how their story progressed even after the film had finished, a very beautiful movie, a very gripping story, beautiful visuals scenery, great acting/cast. This is a winner!
8/10

75) The Age of Adaline (2015)
Ageless Love, was somehow unique and i liked it! The plot was pretty predictable from the beginning but the movie was beautifully cast and filmed, the ending was unnecessarily happy, but overall an amazing cinematography, worth watch.
7/10

76) A Beautiful Mind (2001)
You must learn to distinguish b/w illusions, dreams and real lives before you can live; A great Biopic. Russell Crowe acted insane, heartbreaking, intense and beautifully directed.
8/10

77) Bridget Jones's Diary (2001)
Renée Zellweger saves this movie!
To sum up, you'll probably love it if you're mainstream romcom fan and you might even like it if you aren't.
Sweet, witty and British.
7/10

78) Sleepless in Seattle (1993)
The story can be cheesy but that's the beauty of this film. Its classic and unlike most romcoms it doesn't expect us to believe it has really happened, it just expects us to believe that the characters believe it, which they do!
7/10

79) Cast Away (2000)
It takes quite a bit of talent to be able to be only actor for basically the whole film and still make it work, Tom Hanks at the top of his game. Incredible direction and performance. The plane crash was the most realistic I've ever seen in any movie.
8/10

80) Catch Me If You Can (2002)
The fact that movie based on a true story really shows how fantastically smart and cunning some people truly are! Hanks vs Dicaprio, fun-witty like tom&jerry Chase, music was brilliant
I dunno what exactly to say but Catch this one if you can
8/10
