Movies that feel likeNotting Hill (1999)

London bookstore owner William Thacker's quiet life turns upside down when a chance encounter with famous actress Anna Scott sparks an unlikely romance challenged by their vastly different worlds.

If you loved Notting Hill, the closest films we have are You've Got Mail (1998), There's Something About Mary (1998) and Trainwreck (2015). All three share Notting Hill's romantic and witty feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is My Best Friend's Wedding (1997).
