Best Feel-Good Movies

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios

When life hands you lemons, it's often your remote or streaming service that'll help you make lemonade. Hear us out: Pressing play on feel-good movies (and TV shows) like Legally Blonde, Girls Trip, Mrs. Doubtfire, and Mamma Mia! can lift your spirits when you're feeling sad—and perhaps make you more positive. At the very least, you'll definitely find yourself humming to the songs from Eurovision Song Contest.

But what is a feel-good movie, exactly? A 2021 study conducted by the Max Planck Institute for Empirical Aesthetics found similarities across movies that 450 participants classified as uplifting, like Love Actually and Pretty Woman. According to the study, "feel-good" movies feature humor and an element of lightness, and don't have upsetting plot twists. They also have similar lead characters: "Outsiders in search of true love, who have to prove themselves and fight against adverse circumstances, and who eventually find their role in the community," Keyvan Sarkhosh, study leader and first author, said per a press release.

For the full feel-good experience, cozy up with a soft throw blanket and sweatpants. Not only are these favorites entertaining, but they'll brighten not-so-sunny days the second the opening credits roll. When the movie's done, prolong the good vibes with a book about happiness, or a heartwarming TV show.

In Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar, Mumolo and Wiig play best friends leaving their small Nebraska town for the first time and find themselves enmeshed in adventure (and a villain's plot) in Florida. If Jamie Dornan's beach-set dance break isn't the definition of "feel good," we don't know what is.

Legally Blonde

WATCH NOW

Leave it to the bubbly Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) to get you out of a funk. The 2001 rom-com may teach audiences how to "bend and snap" and how to move on from a relationship, but the most important thing we could all take away from the film is to not judge a book by its scented pink cover.

Tom Hanks stars as Forrest Gump in this 1994 classic, which also finds Robin Wright as Forrest's childhood friend and crush, Jenny Curran.

Clueless

As if...you could find a better film that combines high fashion, high school drama, and high society into one.

Mamma Mia!

WATCH NOW

The only thing better than Meryl Streep singing and dancing on a beautiful Greek island is the fact that she does so to the addictive sounds of ABBA. Good luck trying not to sing along.
