Top 5 rom-coms
Now, let's leave the harsh realities of life behind, dim the lights, assemble the snacks and delve into Vision Direct's most-loved rom-coms, with your contact lenses of course! We're talking about the classics, oozing with clichés of over-the-top romantic gestures, tear-inducing soundtracks and highly unlikely meet-cutes. Hold onto your tissues and pick your perfect movie match now.
- Crazy, Stupid, Love: Highlights of the plot include a shirtless Ryan Gosling and a reenactment of the iconic Dirty Dancing lift with Emma Stone - need we say more?
- Definitely Maybe: If you're looking for a refreshing take on a love story, with the charismatic and (shocker) nearly-divorced Ryan Reynolds, this rom-com is definitely a 'yes'.
- Serendipity: Whether or not you believe in fate, the charming tale of Kate Beckinsale and John Cusack continuously bumping into each other is bound to make you feel something.
- You've Got Mail: A Nora Ephron masterpiece of autumnal New York scenes, featuring our favourite rom-com duo of the 90s, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.
- How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days: Kate Hudson's yellow dress is the real star of this film - not forgetting the dying love fern, and a joint rendition of 'You're so vain', with Benny Boo-Boo (aka Matthew McConaughey).
