Best romantic comedies (post-2000)?

Post by MmzHrrdb »

I've become pretty interested in this genre lately, partly because compiling the collection "100 Noteworthy Films of the Romantic Comedy Genre and Beyond" (http://www.criticker.com/?fl&filter=e29062) made me realize how much I enjoy the better examples of the genre. However, the book from which that collection derives was published in the year 2000, which is why I'm asking my fellow Criticker users for recommendations of good romcoms made since that year.

Punch-Drunk Love by PTA is a romance and a comedy. I would not call it a romantic comedy, but it may fit what you are looking for and is an awesome film.

Love Exposure is a romantic comedy made in 2008 and an absolute masterpiece, although it's the strangest and most unique romcom ever made...

I only have one rom-com in my tier 10, Moonstruck, but that's pre-2000. Some people say (500) Days of Summer is a rom-com, but it isn't, says so right up front, "You should know up front, this is not a love story". See, up front.

This.

Also, Amelie. I wanted to hate it so bad but just couldn't.
