Top 10 Best Movie Couples of All Time

These are the couples that could just make you feel the love and romance right off the movie or TV screen. You felt as if you were the one being loved...
The Top Ten
1 Fox Mulder & Dana Scully (The X-Files)

Mulder and Scully are the cutest couple, and because they've been through tough times together, they show their love with trust, and they have a strong chemistry between each other.

I haven't got to the part where they actually start liking each other, but I knew as soon as I started the show that they were definitely going somewhere!

Fox William Mulder and Scully are such a beautiful couple. David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are great actors. Mulder and Scully forever!

2 Han Solo & Princess Leia Organa (Star Wars)

Two sexy, dynamic characters who lived a romance that was so good that even though they were not the central characters in this terrific saga (it's really about Luke and Vader, of course), their love story will always be among the most memorable storylines of STAR WARS. The carbonite scene is one of the most romantic scenes ever in film history.

They were supposed to both say "I love you," but before going on stage, the director told Harrison to say what he thought his character should say, and he came up with the iconic "I know" in response.

3 Jack Dawson & Rose DeWitt Bukater (Titanic)

Definitely #1. The most astounding, passionate, romantic lovers in the most amazing way, full of life through all the thick-and-thins, up-and-downs, still together. The flame of love they've ignited will remain forever...

Always and forever. They're epic, and their story is just so real and amazing. They stayed together till the end, and he died in her arms because he wanted her to live! Amazing!

The best movie couple, hands down! When they are together, I get chills. And they have great chemistry in real life too. It doesn't get much better than Jack and Rose.

4 Noah Calhoun & Allison "Allie" Hamilton (The Notebook)

The Notebook is one of the most romantic movies I have ever seen. It brings warmth to your heart when you think of the struggle Noah and Allie go through and end up together at the end. Although I love Twilight, I believe Noah and Allie's love story is more relatable. Also, I am not a "hormonal pre-pubescent teenage girl."

I think they are the best couple ever! Their love is a beautiful story about life. We see the problems, which often complicate our lives. Rachel and Ryan played these roles very convincingly. I absolutely believe in their love.

5 Edward Cullen & Isabella "Bella" Swan (Twilight)

I love Twilight so much. I'm a huge fan, and I think they really are the best couple as they are together not only on-screen but off-screen too. It's proof: Edward, Bella, Kristen, Robert – they're perfect for each other. Absolutely no competition.

They were meant for each other. Their love between human and vampire is unconditional. So when Bella turns into a vampire, it means that Edward and Bella can be together forever. They will continue their perfect piece of forever.

ACTUALLY, I am addicted to them. I really love Twilight. It's such a great book. I've read it almost 100 times, but I never get tired. As usual, every time I read it, I get chills. Please vote for this.

6 Rhett Butler & Scarlett O'Hara (Gone with the Wind)

They are both so selfish and self-absorbed that it just makes perfect sense for them to be together. The ending of that relationship is also great.

The ultimate movie couple. So strong-willed, both of them. This was my grandparents' favorite movie, and they had a very strong marriage.

Possibly the best and most famous screen couple of all time! So realistic and believable.

7 William "Will" Turner & Elizabeth Swann (Pirates of the Caribbean)

This couple makes me feel so strong for them! Every time I think about them, I want to cry because of all the cruelty and the unfairness they faced. They are so beautiful together and have such chemistry. They fought so hard protecting each other. All they wanted was to be together. Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley created wonderful characters! I hate the ending in At World's End! Disney, bring them back and set things right!

Yeah, she kicks butt, and so does he. Partners in crime and best friends, just like a good couple should be! I liked the equality between them and the respect. She was a rich girl but had some real drive and power about her, and class! I think their loyalty was beautiful. She wasn't a pathetic, whinging girl like Allie with Noah. She was a strong lady who stayed by Will, even when he left for sea. I cried in the second and third movies. Aww.

8 Belle & The Beast / Prince Adam (Beauty and the Beast)

Best couple ever because they didn't have the love at first sight cliché. But they only loved each other after spending time and getting to know their true selves.

Belle and the Beast are perfect for each other: the chemistry and tension between them is realistic and fluent. The ultimate fairy tale romance!

9 Ronald "Ron" Weasley & Hermione Granger (Harry Potter)

The reason they beat out Edward and Bella is because of their romance style. Edward and Bella had an unnatural love, while Ron and Hermione have a realistic love. Harry Potter isn't a romance-fueled series, but this was the best side plot. Even though they didn't kiss after 200 pages, there was subtlety. And in the end, that final kiss was better than the many kisses of Twilight for a reason.

What makes this couple so special is their romance plot spans over seven years, not a fake seven years but a real one, along with the actor and actress as they grow up. It made it so real and gave their love great depth.

10 Elizabeth Bennet & Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy (Pride and Prejudice)

What can be greater than love making you want to be a better man? Darcy is the ultimate selfless hero, rescuing his lady without expecting her to know about his good deed. "By you, I was properly humbled"... "I cannot fix the hour, or the spot, or the look, or the words, which lay the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun." His speeches are so romantic, and the man simply can't keep his eyes off Elizabeth throughout the entire book.

Pride and Prejudice is the ultimate romantic story. The BBC version had the best Lizzy and Darcy ever! The humility that Darcy showed after his rejection made my heart palpitate. His love for Lizzy broke down his pride and, in turn, overcame her prejudice against him. He made sacrifices for Lizzy without expecting anything in return, but knowing that she would be spared pain and embarrassment. Their first kiss always made me grin from ear to ear.

The Contenders
11 Peter Parker / Spider-Man & Mary Jane "MJ" Watson (Spider-Man)
12 Danny Zuko & Sandra "Sandy" Olsson (Grease)

John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John are amazing. They were so cute on and off camera, and they still do stuff together today!

I love them both. The different attitudes during most of the movie just come together so perfectly.

From "Grease," and you can't help but be electrified by this couple...

13 Robert "Rocky" Balboa & Adrian Pennino-Balboa (Rocky)

This is definitely the greatest movie couple of all time. They were soulmates whose love surpassed even time, as you can see in the last movie "Rocky Balboa," even after her death, he was still madly in love with her.

BEST love story of ALL time! I will never get over Rocky and Adrian. Total marriage goals!

A love stronger than Apollo Creed, Clubber Lang, Drago, and Tommy Gunn put together...

14 Katniss Everdeen & Peeta Mellark (The Hunger Games)

Even though the whole nightlock thing was all an act, you get the sense that Peeta would actually sacrifice himself for Katniss. Not that Katniss would have let him. May the future be ever in J-Hutch and J-Law's favor.

Best couple. The way they are portrayed in the film is amazing and makes them look like they're together.

I just saw Catching Fire two days ago, and I became obsessed! My favorite couples are Hermione and Ron, and Katniss and Peeta! They should be on the top!

15 Lara Antipova & Yuri Andreyevich Zhivago (Doctor Zhivago)

Oh please, what the hell are Edward & Bella doing ahead of Yuri & Lara? Doctor Zhivago is a beautifully 193-minute opus from the master of epic cinema, David Lean, a turbulent love story set against the fiery backdrop of the Bolshevik Revolution. And you guys think some sparkly vampires make for a more legitimate romance?!

Every generation has its own romantic epic couple. Your grandparents had Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara, your kids had Jack Dawson and Rose Dewitt Bukater, while you had Yuri Zhivago and Lara Antipova.

16 Erik, The Phantom of the Opera & Christine Daaé (The Phantom of the Opera)

The Phantom's love and devotion to Christine is beautiful. The movie and the musical leave you at the end feeling very sad for Erik.

No other movie couple can beat this. Christine and the Phantom are such a darkly beautiful union.

Their love was like, for Christine, fatherly, but for the Phantom, passionate...

17 Eugene Fitzherbert / Flynn Rider & Rapunzel (Tangled)

Their gradual love story just made my heart melt. They are perfect together.

18 Anthony "Tony" Stark / Iron Man & Virginia "Pepper" Potts (Iron Man)

The banter between Stark and Potts is electrifying.

Oh yeah, I forgot about them, but should it be Pepper Stark because they were married?

19 Anakin Skywalker & Padmé Amidala (Star Wars)

They were so cute together at first! Not kidding, I used to have a crush on Anakin in Revenge of the Sith. If Anakin had stayed good, they would have been amazing together and started a wonderful family. It kind of makes you sad to think about what could have happened and what did happen.

Yes, he was deceived by Darth Sidious, but he turned to the Dark Side in an effort to save her! Their romance in Episode II almost makes it my favorite of the six. I just find them so cute.

Such a deep and tragic love. Anakin gains power to protect the one he loves, while Padmé watches him sink deeper into darkness. Sweet at first, terribly sad in the end.

20 Alejandro Murrieta / Zorro & Elena Montero (The Mask of Zorro)
21 Romeo Montague & Juliet Capulet (Romeo and Juliet)

I have a graphic novel of these two. It's just so sad how Romeo thinks Juliet is dead, so he kills himself, and when Juliet wakes up, she sees dead Romeo, so Juliet commits suicide...

I honestly don't think they were in love. They just met. I think it was just hormones. However, how they acted upon their feelings for each other is very memorable!

They had the most tragic ending, but they are still considered the best movie couple, or one of the best at least.

22 Sherlock Holmes & Irene Adler (Sherlock Holmes)

Can't believe this hasn't been added yet. They have awesome chemistry, especially in the 2009 movie. Robert Downey Jr. and Rachel McAdams were awesome together.

Robert Downey Jr. shares the same witty chemistry with Rachel McAdams here as he does with Gwyneth Paltrow in the Iron Man films.

23 Aragorn II Elessar & Arwen Undómiel (The Lord of the Rings)

I really suggest people read the Appendices to The Lord of the Rings, "The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen." Absolutely beautiful. "And thus it was that Arwen first beheld him again after their long parting. And as he came walking towards her under the trees of Caras Galadhon laden with flowers of gold, her choice was made and her doom appointed." JRR Tolkien, pg. 1060.

Whether it's in the book or on screen, these two have got to be the best couple I know of. Their love endures a lot, and throughout it all, it holds such depth. Just a beautifully portrayed expression of love.

24 Bonnie Parker & Clyde Barrow (Bonnie and Clyde)

Look at the list here. Every one of them features forced love, and most end with that happily ever after cliché that's just shoehorned in to make two opposite sex characters do something bland. Bonnie & Clyde, however, needed each other because of their need to survive, which forced them to kill and rob banks together. Most of all, these are serial killers who actually made the audience sympathize with these two love-birds, no matter how many they've killed. This is the best example that even evil people are still capable of love, and they should have been ranked higher!

25 Bruce Wayne / Batman & Selina Kyle / Catwoman (Batman)

Batman Returns or Dark Knight Rises? If Batman Returns, great. If Dark Knight Rises, no.
