No matter what season it is, I always love a good movie to help me get in the mood for it. Fall time? Halloween movies, of course. Wintertime? Hallmark movies are a go. Summertime? Here are some ideas for you!
- “Mamma Mia”
If any movie perfectly encapsulates the summer vibe, it’s gonna be this one! “Mamma Mia” takes place on the Greek Island of Kalokairi with a wedding to surround its plot with. What better way to scream summer than a sunny island?
- “Teen Beach Movie”
This one may be an unpopular opinion, but it’s a guilty pleasure of mine. This story takes place on the beach through the perspective of two teenagers in love, but torn between summer fun and school. They take a journey through time to the summer of the 1960’s. I 10/10 recommend this to anyone who wants a good summer feel-good movie!
- “The Notebook”
In my eyes, nothing says summer more than a summer love story with young lovers and an endless road of possibilities ahead of them. I’m definitely a sucker for romance movies, but “The Notebook” is a movie I think everyone can find joy in.
- “The Spectacular Now”
Surprise! Another young summer romance story. “The Spectacular Now” is one of those movies I could watch 1,000 times over again. I’ve seen it just about that many times. It follows two teenagers through their journey of highschool graduation as they navigate their future and their love.
- “Crazy Rich Asians”
No summer is a real summer without some good laughs. If I could go back and choose to watch a movie again for the first time, it would be this movie. It’s full of comedy, love and all-around summer feels.
