Just like After, this rom-com deals with a good girl shaking up her life (much to the chagrin of the adults in her life) with the help of a sexy bad boy. The catch? The good girl is the president's daughter, who makes an impulsive decision to escape her constricted life with the help of a roving photographer she just met.

Watch Chasing Liberty on Netflix.

Yes, the title is ridiculously unwieldy, but don't judge a book by its cover (or a movie by its title): it's a charming, low-key romantic drama with just the right touch of melodrama as a writer journeys to a small town and discovers some long-kept secrets.

A college-bound teenager launches a dating-for-hire service to help pay for college, but his real feelings soon cause him to try to hide his business from the girl he's falling for.

In a twist on the meet-cute-is-based-on-a-lie trope, this movie centres on a clever young woman who's cursed with a pig nose until "one of her own kind" loves her. The complications set in when a down-on-his-luck blue blood shows up to woo her, despite secrets of his own.

A young man promises the woman he loves that he'll bring her a fallen star, but the reality of that quest turns out to be very different than he expected. For an epic romance with some high drama and fantasy, this is the perfect movie for you!

You never forget your first love, and in the case of One Day, you never quite let go of them, either. The romantic drama follows two best friends and college sweethearts whose lives and loves keep crossing paths on at least one day every year.
