There are few things that provide viewers the comfort that 2000s films did. Not only was it a golden era for films that spanned multiple genres, but the decade also featured some of the most ‘comfort movies’ for the audience at large.
One such title that is frequently seen in the columns of lists that go along the lines of ‘Best 2000s Rom Coms To Watch’ is Andy Fickman’s 2006 directorial ‘She’s The Man’! Adapted from William Shakespeare’s comedic drama play ‘Twelfth Night’, the film follows Viola’s seemingly unending struggles that follow when her high-school football team is dissolved.
Moreover, she is not allowed to play on the boys’ team either. Coming up with the only solution at hand, she disguises herself as her twin brother Sebastian, heads over to his elite boarding school, shines in his football team, participates in the upcoming tournament, and (un)fortunately, ends up falling in love with the star of the team Duke.
The ensemble cast includes Amanda Bynes, Channing Tatum, Laura Ramsey, Alexandra Breckenridge, Jonathan Sadowski, and more in leading roles. If any of this falls into the category of your ‘comfort movie’, head on over to Prime Video to stream the film this weekend!
