Okay, let’s be honest. Romantic comedies have a history of being hit and miss over the years.

At the same time, romantic comedies can be hugely entertaining and fill us up with that feel good factor.

Moreover they've given us some true movie classics like 'Pretty Woman' and 'The Princess Bride'. Others that movie fans love to watch over and over include 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' and 'Love Actually'. For John Cusack fans, there's 'Say Anything' and 'High Fidelity'. Meg Ryan stars in a LOT of them, like 'When Harry Met Sally', 'Sleepless in Seattle', and - relatively more recently anyway - 'You've Got Mail', in which she reunites with Tom Hanks.

But what are the definitive films of the genre, and how many have you seen?

With it being a week away from Valentine's Day, they should give you some inspiration for great movies to revisit or even watch for the very first time.
