We can all agree that 2020 hasn’t been an amazing year, and we spent most of it clinging to tiny things that give us comfort. Movies proved to be a great source of good vibes, and these five put a smile on our face during the most desperate times.

Palm Springs

Wedding Crashers meets Groundhog Day in this hilarious rom-com about two perfect strangers who are stuck in an endless loop while attending a wedding straight of their worst nightmares.

Happiest Season

The defining holiday movie of 2020 centers on a young woman visiting her girlfriend’s family on Christmas and learning that she kept their relationship a secret because she’s not out yet.

Emma

If you’re a huge fan of period dramas, this adaptation of Jane Austen’s novel about a young woman who enjoys meddling in the love lives of others will be your cup of tea.

The Half of It

Netflix gave us one of its best coming-of-age movies in recent years with The Half of It—the story of a shy teen who agrees to ghostwrite a love letter on behalf of an inarticulate jock for a girl that she also secretly likes.

Love and Monsters

This underrated action-comedy takes place in a monster-infested, post-apocalyptic world and centers on a young man who decides to leave the safety of his underground colony and look for his high school sweetheart.

Direct-to-VOD releases became a new normal this year, but some of the best movies of the summer really deserved to be seen in the theaters with a big crowd, including these three.

The Old Guard

Netflix poured $70 million into The Old Guard so we’d like to believe it would’ve gotten a limited theatrical release. This action flick about a group of immortal mercenaries is the unofficial film of the summer, and it would be even more epic on the big screen.

Palm Springs

In addition to being one of the most delightful films of the year, this time loop comedy broke the record for the biggest sale in the Sundance history. After dropping on Hulu, it was also released in select drive-in theaters, but it would be so much more fun if we all got to see it and laugh at it together.

The King of Staten Island

Even if it was released in the theaters, Judd Apatow’s latest comedy probably wouldn’t replicate the box office success of his earlier films. Seeing it this way would still be quite spectacular since it was shot by the Oscar-winning cinematographer Robert Elswit.
