Date night movies are our favourite when it comes to having a wonderful night with someone we love without breaking the bank this summer.

Whether you want to make it a romantic affair or just sit in silence on the sofa, finding a good film is the perfect scene setter. But we get it: finding a movie to watch that you’ll both enjoy can be a struggle. You’ll be lucky if your movie tastes align perfectly, and in the early days, you don’t want to force them to watch The Notebook and send them to sleep (or creep them out).

We’ve already provided you with the perfect guides to the best sad movies (if you’re looking to open up your date to their emotional side), the best movies on Netflix ever (if you want to seriously impress) and the best romantic comedies (if you want to make some pretty serious hints about the fact you’ll be together forever). But what about when you just want to settle in for the perfect date film – an objectively good film that will keep you hooked from start to finish and spark a lively convo – delivered by your fave streaming service?

We’ve scoured Netflix for some of the best, most gripping flicks you’ll be talking about long after the credits roll. To help you find a movie you will both enjoy, we’ve put together the 30 best universally entertaining date movie options here – from Irish Wish to Crazy, Stupid, Love.
