49 Feel-Good Summer Movies to Watch When It's Just Too Darn Hot Outside (Country Living) - Page 2

While those sunny summer days are, in our humble opinion, much better spent perfecting great grilling recipes, sipping on a summer cocktail (or sweet tea!) poolside, or embarking on a once-in-a-lifetime family vacation, there is the occasional moment when the weather is just too darn hot to spend too much time outside. (Or, you know, a thunderstorm derails the epic list of summer activities you had planned for the day.) In these trying times, the best thing you can do is kick back on the couch with some seriously excellent summer movies. If you'd rather head to the theater, it's time to Google "movies coming out this summer," because this list isn't for you. This round-up is all about classic summer movies for both kids and adults that generations have enjoyed watching over and over again. Our list of the best summer movies of all time includes adrenaline-packed action flicks—hello, Independence Day—classic coming-of-age stories, romantic comedies, and yes, even some thrillers.
