Summary: Charming
Review: I had no desire to see this film at all; but when a friend lent me the DVD and I watched it,I became instantly engrossed. It is a clean, charming, romantic movie that I wouldn't be afraid for my young children to walk in on. I found it to be very light and casual- not brainnumbingly intellectual, and therefore entertaining (To quote the cleche I laughed, I cried etc.). Although rather predictable, a great flick to sit back on the couch and enjoy a peaceful evening. If you liked Sleepless you may like this one even better.

Summary: Sentimental Dribble
Review: This film (if one would be so bold as to call it a "film"; I should think "garbage" a more appropriate title) was quite frankly among the worst ever produced. I found it an insult to my considerable intelligence. The dialogue lacks wit (I'm sure the screenwriters could have thought of something more epigrammatical than "You have mail") and the characters lack depth. The film is inundated in sentimentality and posseses a mindless plot (if it could be said to possess a plot at all). Mr. Hanks wasted his considerable thespian talents on this project. Ms. Ryan, I can at least say, is not guilty of this charge; she has no talent to begin with. A dreadful waste of time. I would just as soon leap from the top of St. Paul's Cathedral than see it again.P.S. I understand that the sentiments expressed in my review may be unpopular ones. I live at 1567 Windsor Lane in London, England. Feel free to come to my home and personally disagree with me if you wish.

Summary: more undeveloped characters
Review: After sleepless in Seattle, this pair continues to push out movies full of undeveloped characters. There's no deep thinking for this one, you already know whats going to happen so why see the movie?

Summary: Manipulative Crap
Review: God is Meg Ryan obnoxious. Her idea of being appealing is bouncing on the balls of her feet like an 8-year-old. Blechh! A goody two-shoes like this does not exist, particularly in Manhattan. Speaking of which, what "Manhattan" was this? In this film, butterflies flit in subway cars. Come on, Miss Ephron, what do you take us for? The bookstore and their environs looked like Santa Barbara -- not NY. And Hanks really phoned this sucker in. What a dull performance. I saw zero evidence of the vaunted "chemistry" between the two principals. A cool, calculated (and I guess successful) attempt to bring women's dollars into the theater. Come on, ladies, wise up! Just because Hanks and Ryan are in it doesn't make this a good movie. Just Say No!

Summary: Like an old-time movie
Review: This movie can be enjoyed by the whole family, something you can't say about most of the garbage coming out in Hollywood..if you are a Tom Hanks or Meg Ryan fan, you'll like this movie... my wife says Meg is in desperate need of a "new doo"....this movie begs for a sequel, however, as the ending leaves you with as many questions as answers..

Summary: A Cute, Feel Good Movie...
Review: I just finsihed watching this movie and it *greatly* exceeded my expectations. I really didn't know what to expect, but since I am a Tom Hanks fan, I figured it couldn't be THAT bad. And to be honest I was pleasantly surprised! The reason I gave it four stars as opposed to five is because I felt the ending was rushed just a little bit too much compared to the rest of the movie and because of the few too many "product placements". Other than that I really enjoyed this movie. I would reccommend this movie to anybody who likes Meg Ryan or Tom Hanks or any body who wants to watch a 'cute' movie with a significant other on a rainy day!

Review: I would like to send this movie to a friend in Adelaide, Australia. We have been corresponding thru Cyber Space.....just like the movie. I know it is in a different format than the USA (PAL or SECAM) and I have been searching for hours to find a store or internet address that sells videos in this format. Please help. Thank you.

Summary: Another Meg Ryan classic!
Review: I'm a hug fan of Meg Ryan & Tom Hanks, and I did really love the movie, however it definitely lacked the romance & excitement of "Sleepless In Seattle." While it was thoroughly enjoyable, I felt it was lacking *something* - especially the ENDING!! It leads you to a point where you expect something really amazing to happen, and then kind of leaves you hanging there as the credits begin to roll. The music is the other problem - what was with playing "Somewhere Over The Rainbow"??? How is THAT romantic?? Maybe it's just me, but I feel that the music of a movie lends a lot of feeling to it - it may have helped many of the "flat" scenes. (Maybe there were some scenes cut that would've helped too, but none of them were included on the DVD.) My last complaint - the DVD version's extras - why would ANYONE want the ability to SEE the entire movie, but only listen to the MUSIC in it...NO DIALOGUE???!!! I just don't get it. The commentary by Nora Ephron was somewhat interesting, however I personally would have enjoyed some opinions from Meg & Tom. Well, I've vented...& I DO realize that I'm not a movie critic...I just know what I like. :)
