Feeling A Bit Of Summertime Sadness? Here Are Some Netflix Movies To Boost Your Mood!
Remember this song by Lana Del Rey?
Such a summer classic, right?! I think the reason it became so popular is that we can all relate to those summer days when, out of nowhere, we're hit with a pang of sadness. During those melancholy moments, it's important to remember that happiness and good times are still within your reach. To remind yourself of that, check out some of these mood-boosting Netflix picks!
1. "Chef"
This film is like comfort food without the calories. It's a charming family dramedy about love and food trucks. Sounds like a winning recipe to us!
2. "Scary Movie"
Legit scary movies aren't exactly feel-good flicks. But a parody of a scary movie may be exactly what the doctor ordered for summertime blues. This uproarious comedy subs laughter for screaming and will make you forget why you were sad in the first place.
3. "Wet Hot American Summer"
Things get crazy on the last day at Camp Firewood. You'll smile when you spot younger versions of your favorite movie stars, including Paul Rudd, Chris Meloni, Amy Poehler, Bradley Cooper, and Elizabeth Banks. This cult classic was so beloved that Netflix even made a limited series prequel!
4. "Legally Blonde"
According to Elle Woods, you need endorphins to make you happy, but I think the path to a more jubilant life is more Elle Woods. If you don't cheer when Elle shuts Warner down after winning the case, you need to get your head examined.
5. "13 Going on 30"
Being cool is overrated. Being yourself is underrated. Sometimes, you need a little bit of time travel into the future to discover that.
6. "Grease: Live"
You can't go wrong when you replace summertime sadness with summer lovin'. Relive the magical TV special as many times as it takes to slap a smile on that face.
7. "Mean Girls"
Over a decade later, this high-school classic is still fetch as ever.
8. "The Princess Bride"
If this film doesn't make you happier, we don't know if anything will.
