SYNOPSIS
The story follows New Yorker Rachel Chu (Constance Wu) as she accompanies her longtime boyfriend, Nick Young (Henry Golding), to his best friend’s wedding in Singapore. Excited about visiting Asia for the first time but nervous about meeting Nick’s family, Rachel is unprepared to learn that Nick has neglected to mention a few key details about his life. Not only is he the scion of one of the country’s wealthiest families, but also one of its most sought-after bachelors. Being on Nick’s arm puts a target on Rachel’s back, with jealous socialites and worse, Nick’s own disapproving mother (Michelle Yeoh) taking aim.

My favorite romantic comedy is “The 40 Year Old Virgin”. I think that it is a really funny movie.
Princess Bride
A walk to remember is my fave.
Bridesmaids
Bringing Up Baby
When Harry Met Sally
Groundhog Day
The Wedding Date.
I’m going to go with 40 year old virgin. Under its raunchy exterior, it’s interior is a romantic comedy with Steve Carell and Catherine Keener’s love story.
Along Came Polly
I really like Ben Stiller in this one 😀
To Have and To Have Not, Vogue and Becall
My favorite romantic comedy is “As good as it gets”.. it starts Jack Nicholson and Helen Hunt. Jack Nicholson is a crotchety OCD perfectionist author who falls in love with a mom with an ailing Sun. It has all the elements for a perfect romantic comedy.
Corpse Bride
It Happened One Night (1934) starring Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert.
I gotta say When Harry Met Sally. I just love Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal!
Wedding Crashers
Can’t buy me love!
