We will tell you exactly what will help you with the Breakup. We suggest owning every cliché in the book—yes, that means ice cream—and kicking back with the best movies to get over a breakup. Our picks for the best breakup movies are mentioned below. 

 

Bridget Jones's Diary

Director: Sharon Maguire

Star Casts:  Renée Zellweger, Colin Firth, Hugh Grant

IMDb Ranking: 6.7/10

 

This movie will definitely help you cry your heart out so that you can be done with all the crying part. Bridget Jones Diary translates well for the 21st-century audience by showcasing the strong, independent woman even though the story is set in the early 1800s. Understand the power of chastity of Jane Austen's remake of the book Pride and Prejudice, where Renee Zellweger plays the part of Elizabeth Bennet with a little bit of change since the character in the movie is a basket case. Bridget decides on a fine day which happens to be New Year's Eve to find a perfect boyfriend and get her life under control. Watch this movie to make Bidget your role model and get inspired by her to deal with all the sh*t in your life.best-break-up-movies-netflix-bridget-jones-diary_image

 

Friends With Benefits

Director: Will Gluck

Star Casts:  Mila Kunis, Justin Timberlake, Patricia Clarkson 

IMDb Ranking: 6.6/10

 

Suffering from a Breakup from a non-relationship relationship? Then, you should watch Friends with benefits to know where you go wrong. You can relate to a lot of things in this movie where the main characters fall in love while having the usual Hollywood jazz of no commitment and no I-miss-you moves. You'll definitely enjoy this movie post-breakup with the notion of how two friends are always there to help each other in their needs even when it means to get naughty with each other when no ones around. best-break-up-movies-netflix-friends-with-benefits_image

 

 

Silver Linings Playbook

Director: David O. Russell

Star Casts: Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, Robert De Niro 

IMDb Ranking: 7.7/10

 

While most romantic comedies typically contain awful acting, sappiness, and a lot of unsurprising minutes; Silver Linings Playbook is totally different. There might be a little sum sappiness in this movie yet there will undoubtedly be some in any romantic circumstances. In general, however, the majority of the sap in Silver Linings Playbook can be disregarded because of the way that the film is totally unique, extremely funny, and contains extraordinary acting from the two lead parts, Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence. Silver Linings Playbook is brimming with innovativeness, creativity and minimal on sentiment platitudes. best-break-up-movies-netflix-silver-linings-playbook_image

 

Sex And The City

Director:  Michael Patrick King

Star Casts:  Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon

IMDb Ranking: 5.6/10

 

Everyone must have heard about the famous book called "Sex in the city" which talks about the relationships and how not everything revolves around them. After a break up the most important thing is to get your shit together and believe in yourself. That's what exactly Sex & the city will inspire you to do. This movie talks about 4 friends who have their own relationship problems and with its sassy look at the urban relationships, it also talks about how to box relationships into conventions. best-break-up-movies-netflix-sex-and-the-city_image

 

Legally Blonde

Director: Robert Luketic

Star Casts: Reese Witherspoon, Luke Wilson, Selma Blair

IMDb Ranking: 6.3/10

 

Its ditziness, vacuous characters, and overall silliness aside, Legally Blonde is an insightful study in self-discovery and personal growth. Elle Woods is a clingy, needy girl who only defines herself through the eyes of her selfish, arrogant boyfriend. Her slow but steady transformation into a strong, independent young woman is a delight to behold. When she is given the opportunity to work on a high-profile murder case, and then proceeds to break the case wide open, her self-confidence is restored. Giving out the perfect example to build confidence after that breakup, Legally Blonde is a must-watch.best-break-up-movies-netflix-legally-blonde_image

 

How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days

Director: Donald Petrie

Star Casts:  Kate Hudson, Matthew McConaughey, Adam Goldberg

IMDb Ranking: 6.4/10

 

Watching this movie post-breakup is important because it tells you that when you're meant to be with someone then you will. However, she tries to lose him before 10 days the love made then really fell in love with each other. How to lose a guy in 10 days is the cheesiest yet the funniest movie ever.
