Did you see any of these best romance movies of 2015? Which was your favorite? What others would you add to the list? Tell us in the comments!
sorry, i did not see any of these in 2015. We’ll have to see what 2016 brings movie-wise…
I plan on watching Trainwreck and Aloha. I heard both were good! I have a lot of movies to watch this year!
I really loved Aloha! The cast includes some of my favorite actors and it wasn’t your typical love story. Definitely near the top of my favs for 2015!
I have watched Cindrella. Its beautiful.
I’ve seen all but The Longest Ride. I must do something about that! The other two movies were pretty great, I thought!
I haven’t heard of the Longest Ride, although I’ve read many Nicholas Sparks novels, and I’ve seen many of the movie adaptations. I haven’t seen the other two mentioned here, either. I find I rarely have time to watch movies, and on the rare occasion when I do (which is a few times a year!) I usually opt to watch an old favorite.
Nice! I don’t think I’ve seen Aloha. Thanks for sharing this list! I’d love to watch them.
