Science-Fiction
-
Wall-E: This is a perfect sci-fi and family friendly movie that shows what love truly means. Wall-E’s view of a romantic relationship and partner is not only adorable and a great example of completely selfless love, but also has the ability of making the audience care about a relationship in which they were only able to exchange two words!

Horror
-
My Bloody Valentine: When a group of friends decide to throw a Valentine’s party, an unexpected guest shows up. Someone dressed in old mining gear shows his true feelings about love. As the trailer ends, “Nothing says date night like a 3D ride to hell.” … Ummm wow! Not exactly my cup of tea, but maybe you will love it!
Historical
-
Titanic: This is a recount of the sinking of the RMS Titanic. Although they are from different social class, Jack and Rose, share a connection that is worth dying for. This is the perfect combination between a romance and a historical event!
Documentary
-
March of the Penguins: This documentary follows the journey of penguins as they stick together to find a mate! The emperor penguins walk together through places where no other life forms can survive. As the trailer states, “In the harshest place on Earth, love will find a way.” These guys are so freaking cute and they mate for life! Maybe a great movie to watch to begin talking about commitment.
Action
-
Mr. & Mrs. Smith: This is one of my favorite movies! This film is about a married couple that are both secretly assassins that work for opposing companies. Things get a little complicated when they are assigned to kill each other.
Musical
-
La La Land: This musical romance is placed in the city of lights, LA!! A jazz pianist and an aspiring actress take on the world together in hopes of making it big. Any film with Ryan Gosling as the lead is a winner to me!
Drama
-
Fifty Shades Freed: This upcoming movie is the final one in its trilogy. It continues with the marriage and life of Ana and Christian while they try to figure out how to depend on someone besides themselves. Past threats resurface, causing their happy life to be at stake.
