The 10 best rom-coms on Netflix right now

1. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995)

190 min · IMDb 8.0 · RT 100

The best-rated rom-com on Netflix, with a perfect critic score. A rich, carefree young man falls for a woman already promised to her childhood fiancé, then follows her to India to win over every member of her family instead of running away with her. At 190 minutes it is an evening, not a time slot, and it earns the length.

2. Poor Things (2023)

141 min · IMDb 7.7 · RT 92 · Metascore 88

A rom-com by database taxonomy and by almost nothing else. A woman brought back to life by an unorthodox scientist runs off with a lawyer across continents and refuses every rule she meets. Filthy, gorgeous, and closer to science fiction than to a meet-cute, but the romance genes are in there.

3. Voicemails for Isabelle (2026)

119 min · IMDb 7.3 · Metascore 62

A woman keeps leaving confessional voicemails for her late sister, and the messages land with a stranger in San Francisco who starts falling for the voice. Grief and a meet-cute in the same movie, played lighter than that sounds.

4. Clueless (1995)

97 min · IMDb 6.9 · Metascore 73

Cher runs her Beverly Hills high school, sets up two teachers as proof of her matchmaking gift, and gives the new girl a makeover that works too well. Based on a novel, quotable for thirty years and counting.

5. People We Meet on Vacation (2026)

116 min · TMDB 7.0 (709 votes)

She's a free spirit, he loves a plan, and they have taken a summer trip together for years as strictly platonic friends. Based on the novel. You know where it goes; the fun is the ride there.

6. Here the Whole Time (2026)

101 min · TMDB 7.4 (56 votes)

An insecure teenager's quiet vacation is upended when his neighbor and long-time crush needs a place to stay for two weeks. First love with the volume down. Only 56 votes behind that score, so hold it loosely.

7. Hit Man (2024)

116 min · IMDb 6.8 · RT 95 · Metascore 82

A mild-mannered professor moonlights as a fake hit man in police stings until a potential client walks in and he falls for her mid-sting. If the top of this list feels like homework, start here: a 95 on Rotten Tomatoes, 74 minutes shorter than Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, and the crime plot keeps non-rom-com people in the room.

8. Office Romance (2026)

115 min · TMDB 6.4 (368 votes)

An airline CEO enforces a strict no-dating policy on her employees, then hires a lawyer who tests it personally. Exactly what the title promises.

9. 13 Going on 30 (2004)

98 min · IMDb 6.3 · RT 65 · Metascore 57

A humiliated thirteen-year-old wishes herself into being thirty and wakes up with the dream job, the athlete boyfriend and none of the years in between. Body-swap logic in service of a very warm movie.

10. The Threesome (2025)

112 min · IMDb 6.2 · RT 79 · Metascore 70

A threesome sparks a real relationship, and then both women are pregnant. A messy premise handled with more heart than the logline suggests, and the rare rom-com built on consequences.
