10- Hot Rod
Starring Andy Samberg and Isla Fisher, the First look to this movie could make you think what a cheesy flick, with the goofy teenage wannabees and their lame stunts going wrong. But as you proceed, it will clobber your inner critic until you get to love it.
You will learn to love all the weirdness of the wannabe stunt man with a mission who plays the lead and his bonding with the people around him with an utter sprinkle of stupidity.

This movie handles the term Generation Gap in the best way. Starring Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn where the duo enter world of youngsters where they scatter some of their own old school magic while savoring some new school experience at their life as Interns at Google.
5- The Proposal
Being a fan of Ryan Reynolds made me watch this movie like a dozen times! It’s a predictable romantic comedy which gets alive by Reynold’s and Bullock’s performance.
The best thing about it was how a person doesn’t know what he wants until a couple of strangers make him realize who he is and what he actually wants from life. Don’t get it? Just go ahead and watch this movie. You are so going to love it.
4- Love Actually
Nine intertwined stories which explain the meaning of love, and it’s not just the love seen in the romantic movies or read about in Shakespearean love stories.

3- Blended
Starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore in the main roles, this movie is a total joy! Though it’s a predictable comedy where the side roles are funnier than the leads, it’s a sweet movie which will change your mood with all the holiday ecstasy it provides. This movie genuinely portrays all the blending concepts and what it takes to really be there and blend in. I really wish for a sequel to this movie!
2- Storks
This movie is one adorable animated movie with a catchy storyline and a touching soundtrack. The storyline, the characters, their facial expressions- everything is just perfect. It’s a kids’ movie but it’s also somewhat about parenthood (I cried during the climax). Basically, it’s fueled by a series of powerful thought provoking messages for everyone in the audience no matter what age. Once you watch it, it really stays with you for a while!

1- Diary of a Wimpy Kid (Trilogy)
Every movie in this list is a favorite and unique in its own way so putting one of them at number one was a tough call. Since it’s a Trilogy (the fourth part coming out soon!) and an adaptation to a book then why not! If you have a stomach for juvenile jokes, sibling torture and middle school anxiety wittily executed, then this is a delicious series to stick to.
The characters seem like they’re somehow originally related and you will picture yourself in either one of their situation therein. It’s a plenty of fun for the audience. And it’s not just a one-time watch, you would definitely want to watch it again because its light like a feather, a feather which will also tickle you in the tummy!
So, what are you waiting for? Grab some snacks and watch your favourite movies because they are supposed to make you feel lighter.
