10 Must-Watch Movies Like Pretty Woman

10. Maid In Manhattan

Maid In Manhattan stars Jennifer Lopez and Ralph Fiennes, John Hughes, and Kevin Wade penned the script. The movie follows a Senatorial aspirant who is smitten with a hotel housekeeper after he sees her wearing the outfit of a rich woman. For one evening, she can experience a dream come true, which alters her perception of the Big Apple.

The theme of the movie resembles that of Pretty Woman where a rich guy falls for a girl who comes from a humble background.

9. Notting Hill

In the 90s, Julia Roberts was a phenomenon that no one could resist. And if you enjoyed her performance in Pretty Woman, Notting Hill is the next best choice. Thacker, played by Hugh Grant, is an uncomplicated bookstore owner, until the day that Anna Scott (Julia Roberts) turns up seeking something. From then on his life is changed beyond recognition as he provides her with a quiet haven, but the constant attention takes its toll on him.

8. How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days

The connection between Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey was so strong in How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days that the audience didn’t seem to get enough of them. Benjamin Barry (McConaughey), an advertising executive and a Casanova, makes a wager that he can make a female fall for him in 10 days in order to secure a major advertising campaign. On the other hand, Andie (Hudson) must make someone fall in love with her for her news article.

7. Crazy, Stupid, Love

Crazy, Stupid, Love is a romantic comedy that has plenty of unexpected twists. The movie is directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa. The story follows Cal Weaver, played by Steve Carell, a middle-aged individual dealing with the complexity of love and relationships. While the plot revolves around a much lighter note than Pretty Woman, it is equally enjoyable with an exemplary cast.

As Cal’s ideal life falls apart due to his wife’s disloyalty, he finds himself in a strange and unpredictable realm of dating. Ryan Gosling stars as Jacob Palmer, a suave man who guides Cal and helps him progress beyond his wardrobe and into a journey of self-discovery.

6. The Bodyguard

The combination of Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston made for a romance that will be remembered for years to come just like Pretty Woman. A former agent of the Secret Service taking on the task of protecting a famous R&B singer, whose way of life was far from presidential, created an undeniable chemistry that made this film so tragically wonderful. It quickly became one of the most successful films of the 1990s.

5. Bridget Jones’ Diary

Released in 2001, this romantic comedy has charmed audiences worldwide with its endearing protagonist, relatable mishaps, and a story that navigates the complexities of love and personal growth. It is a perfect choice for all rom-com lovers who enjoy Pretty Woman.

Sharon Maguire took the helm in directing Bridget Jones’s Diary, with the story inspired by Helen Fielding’s book. Renée Zellweger stars as the titular character, Bridget Jones, a single woman in her 30s who embarks on a journey of self-improvement and self-discovery, all of which she details in her diary.

4. The Princess Diaries

The Princess Diaries was wonderfully crafted, and it owes its success to the talented cast. Mia Thermopolis (Anne Hathaway) is suddenly presented with the news that she is the rightful heir to the throne of Genovia. Her grandmother — the reigning Queen of Genovia (Julie Andrews) — is constantly giving her lessons on how to behave like a royal. This is similar to the role that the hotel manager plays for Julia Roberts’ character in Pretty Woman.

3. My Best Friend’s Wedding

My Best Friend’s Wedding is sure to have an emotional impact on anyone who has a best friend of the opposite sex. When a woman finds out her longtime buddy is getting married, it makes her realize she has romantic feelings for him—and she tries to get him back before the wedding day arrives. Although many may not act on these kinds of feelings, they can still relate to them.

2. P.S. I Love You

Starring Hilary Swank and Gerard Butler, Richard LaGravenese’s big-screen adaptation of the novel by Cecelia Ahern. P.S. I Love You follows the story of young widow Holly Kennedy as she copes with the sudden loss of her husband, Gerry. Through a series of handwritten letters, Gerry guides Holly on a path of self-healing and growth, each one lovingly signed with the words P.S. I Love You.

1. Miss Congeniality

This 2000 flick features a unique mixture of comedy, action, and subtle charm that keeps its viewers captivated from beginning to end. Sandra Bullock stars as Gracie Hart, a determined FBI officer who is distinguished for her sturdiness and lack of feminity. When a potential danger threatens the Miss United States pageant, Gracie is yanked out of her comfort zone and placed in the glamorous realm of gowns and talent shows.

Much like Julia Robert’s character in Pretty Woman where she has to learn to fit in among the elite, Bullock’s mission also requires her to go undercover and blend in as a pageant contestant.
