If you’re like me, date night a lot of times looks like dinner and a movie after the kids have gone to bed. Sometimes it’s a chick flick, sometimes it’s something more up his alley, but we tend to sit in front of the television forever scrolling through all of the options. If you need some help choosing, here are some top date night movies to narrow down your search and where you can stream them the cheapest (or free)!
