Notting Hill
The Legend badge is hard to earn. Notting Hill's 68% record across 103 matchups reflects consistent, broad-based appeal — well above the 50% that would mean winning as often as losing. Grant and Roberts at the peak of their respective charm offensives, anchoring a rom-com that refuses to be anything other than exactly what it is. That confidence is disarming on a ballot. It sits in the top 10% of 1990s films. Choosing it is fast at 2.3s. Passing on it is slower at 3.6s. Even the voters who don't pick it seem reluctant.
Synopsis
London bookstore owner William Thacker's quiet life turns upside down when a chance encounter with famous actress Anna Scott sparks an unlikely romance challenged by their vastly different worlds.
70%, 63%, 71% across the bracket. Notting Hill doesn't have a gear it saves for later — it competes at the same level regardless of the stage.
The matchup with Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is a genuine coin flip at 50% — neither film has found an edge. Notting Hill beats When Harry Met Sally... (86%) and The Fall Guy (83%) convincingly. The Proposal at 33% is where the dominance ends.
Valentine's Day Showdown 2026: Notting Hill clears Anyone But You in the opening round and dispatches When Harry Met Sally... at 86% in the final. A convincing start-to-finish run.
Ranked #1 in Valentine's Day Showdown 2026.
