Valentine’s Day is a great time to cuddle up on the couch with your sweetheart and pop a romantic DVD into the player. But how do you choose the best of those love stories when there are so many out there? Here’s Kidzworld’s updated guide to the top 10 romantic movies for Valentine’s Day.
10. Titanic
Some loved it, some thought it was the longest and most torturous movie of all time. Still, no matter how you feel about cheesy lines like “I’m king of the world!” you have to admit Titanic is one romantic flick.

Everyone loves this fairy tale adventure! Princess Buttercup gets kidnapped and the handsome hero must save her. Good for old softies of all ages!
8. Never Been Kissed

7. The Parent Trap
