Summary: HUGH A HIT - MEG A MISS
Review: A thoroughly enjoyable movie! Just suspend belief in reality and enjoy. Meg Ryan, who is always cute no matter what, seemed to be off her usual perky self. But Hugh Jackman is a WOW!! He carries his role handsomely (literally), and we never doubt his royalty. I agree with the reviewer who said he hoped this was his breakout role, and "message to Hollywood" - put Hugh Jackman in more movies!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: not bad...
Review: I went into the movie knowing nothing about it. I didn't see any previews, I didn't hear or read any reviews. A friend that I went to the movies with wanted to see it, so I said 'what the heck'.

It's a unique story line, not one of Ryan's best but very cute, charming, romantic and funny. Towards the end it was drawn out a bit but all & all not bad. And Hugh Jackman ain't bad either!! ;-) I just thought I would throw that in!!

Do I say run out and see this movie right away? nah. Take your time, if you don't see it in the theater...catch it on rental when it comes out!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My Kate and Leopold review
Review: I thought this movie was funny, good and light hearted. It is just the right movie to see to put you in a good mood. In the movie Kate(Meg Ryan) is the job and her ex-boyfriend is an inventor who goes back in time and brings back Leopold(hugh Jakcman). Kate and Leopold fall for each other. Leopold goes back in time and Kate never go to say goodbye. Kate's ex-boyfriend has pictures from when he first went back in time and saw leopold and he sees Kate in the pictures even though she wasn't there. They realize Kate is supposed to be with Leopold so she jumps off a bridge into the loop hole and finds Leopold just before he has to make the announcement who he's going to marry. Right when she walks in he says he is going to marry Kate and they get married.
this movie isgood for most audiances. THere is some bad words but they're not affensive at all

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Went to see this one night after Work
Review: I thought all the actors were very good. I usually do not like romantic comedies but I do like Hugh Jackman and Movies about time travel. I thought this film was very cute and lighthearted. Good movie to see after a hard day of work.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: entertaining
Review: I saw this movie with my sister, since we both love romantic comedys. It isn't one of Meg Ryans best but we both really enjoyed Hugh Jackman's acting and character. The movie in general is "cute" and we were left thinking, "why aren't men more like Leopold?" Meg's brother and her ex-boyfriend also did a fabulous job on their characters - I just wish Meg Ryan would have been more enthusiastic as she has been in other films. I would recommend it as a fun, I-feel-like-laughing film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: hope-ful romantic in a so called modern world...
Review: Whew Ladies! We gained the right to vote, and to smoke in public...opps, sorry that's been taken away too...This movie is a breath of fresh sunshine. This movie speaks to me on sooo many levels, Ladies, whether we are really the tougher sex or not, some part of every female really wishes men still stood when a lady walks into a room, felt protected and admired. I find myself holding doors open for women, and while I'm standing there, men walk into. Amazing! I for one felt Ms. Ryan played her part to the hilt, cold, efficient, ever grabbing for the next step up. She played the modern woman perfectly. We have become so immune to good manners, that it is an absolute foreign subject to us modern women. Leopold was a dream, oh where have all the Leopold's gone to? I for one would like to have them back! Yes! Kate & Leopold was fantastic, when I saw the movie, men and ladies were clapping at the end of the movie, just like in the "good ol' days". Do yourself a favor, don't miss it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very funny, very romantic, very beautiful film!!
Review: I just saw Kate & Leopold, and it is funnier than I imagined, even funnier than "French Kiss", which is another Meg Ryan film I like very much. The scenes with Meg & her younger brother (Breckin Meyer)are quite funny, and the scenes with Meg & Hugh Jackman are funny as well. This film is much better than I expected because of the romantic twists that were brilliantly interwoven with the underlying comedy. So, I got to laugh quite a bit, and be moved to tears as well. Meg Ryan's performance was brilliant because she knows how to support her fellow actors, helping make them shine. I went away from this film with a good feeling--it was funny, uplifting and very satisfying. Few films can do this, and I will see this film many more times, I'm sure!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A So-So Movie with a Cute Guy
Review: I was really anxious to see this movie because it looked funny and romantic. Unfortunately, I was dismayed. Meg Ryan is playing the SAME ROLE AGAIN. She is incredibly great in "When Harry Met Sally", but in this role she is too old, too whiny, and too stupid for words. At times, I wanted to tell her to get a grip and grow up. Hugh Jackman was great and I loved the actor who played Kate's brother. He was actually funny. The character who was Kate's ex-boyfriend was just mean and not very humorous. Beyond that, there is not too much to say ...

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Kate and Leopald is a light charmer on love
Review: Kate McKay(Meg Ryan)cringes at the sight of her colleague engrossed in a Christine Feehan romantic novel. That's probably the reaction of the cynics in the theater watching the impossibly romantic time-travel movie Kate and Leopald. Overdosed with escapism and fluttering fantasies, Kate and Leopald is a date-movie with an uninpsired plot about Leopald ( Hugh Jackman), Duke of Albany unwittingly crosses a portal from 1876 to the present while chasing his great-great grandson (Liev Schreiber) who discovered this time passage.

Soon a comedy of manners and culture-shock manifests as Mahattan executive Kate is charmed by the gentlemanly Leopald. She falls in love hopelessly, struggling with realities in her job and convincing herself that Leopald remains a pedestrian. But when she finally surrenders to passion, Leopald returns to his time to await for the revelation on his new bride...

Director James Mangold (Girl, interrupted) shrewdly avoids the complications of time-travel and swiftly dishes up the romantic journey with precision. The obsolete plot is salvaged by the impeccable casting of Hugh Jackman, whose charming portrayal and luminous screen prescence garners him a Golden Globe nomination. Meg Ryan returns to what she does best as in You've Got Mail. Addicted to Love, chalking up a mediocre performance. Though entertaining, it remains at best a light charmer on love and fluffy romance on wings that may fly out of your mind as soon as you are out from the theater. Timeless romance it isn't.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Move over Kate and Spencer: Enter Kate and Leopold!
Review: Just like the Hepburn and Tracy romance comedys of yesteryear, Kate and Leopold hit the mark with just enough humor, tenderness and fantasy. I absolutely adored it!!! I'm going again and will definitely add the DVD to my library when it's released.
