Rating: Summary: Simply one of the most enjoyable videos! Review: My daughter and I love to watch this video over and over, so does my husband.
Rating: Summary: You've Got Junkmail Review: Meg Ryan tries too hard to be cute. Tom Hanks's character is illogically and unnecessarily caustic at times. The story is contrived, and implausible.(Why wouldn't the online duo even reveal their first names to each other?, because it wouldn't advance the story, that's why.) But it gets two stars from me for some moments of humor, (references to the Godfather) and for the happy ending. Emotions might make you think you like it, but you will forget it quickly.
Rating: Summary: A great romantic comedy! Review: I loved this movie!! I liked the way that they met on the Internet and how they hated each other in business! It's a great family film, no cussing or swearing, and it's really cute at the end. Recommended by me for all ages!
Rating: Summary: excellent Review: This movie was the best. I watched it at least twenty times. Actually i did not know how the movie would end. Would Kathleen{Meg}understand why or why not Joe{Tom} waited to let her know? Would she like or dislike him for that and would they live happily ever after? Watch it and see for yourself. It could be classed with movies like 'THE APARTMENT'{JACK LEMMON},'THE MIRROR HAS TWO FACES'{BARBARA STREISAND}movies which I watched at least 20 times. YOU GOT MAIL is the perfect period love story. It was charming,romantic,touching,fantastic and guess what it was "enchanting". It was the perfect Beauty and the Beast story and reaching the heights of My Fair Lady without the music. I can't say it enough it was the best,simply the best. Funny at the right time, the romance was unbeatable and the emotions were realistic. Love is about sacrifices and disapponitments and joy. This film makes you believe in 'FALLING IN LOVE' How could I forget the great When Harry met Sally. This was when Joe met Kathleen. It made me laugh, cry, laugh some more,and cry some more. This movie is for those who love romance and those who want to find it. The cast was perfectly chosen they made you fall right into Manhatten and picture yourself there and believe in their situation. If you do not like it the first time watch it again. There is more to this than meets the eye. I loved it. In one word it was |M*A*R*V*E*L*O*U*S*|
Rating: Summary: This is a very clean love story. Review: My family and I enjoyed this movie very much because it was a movie the whole family could enjoy. The only part anything happened was at the end. Many Romantic movie lovers may find that boring but the wit in this movie made it a very cute and funny movie. The whole movie is about knowing personality before looks or image. This made a very good love story. So watch and enjoy.
Rating: Summary: A dissappointing waste of time... Review: I bought the movie which came with a free soundtack CD. With Meg, Tom plus a music CD I couldn't lose, right? Well I'll not make that mistake again. I gave away both because I don't want them taking up shelf space. What's wrong with this picture? Well the story has little going for it. It was easier to take interest in the supporting actors and skip the main characters altogether. The soundtrack does not enhance the movie at all. Just a hodgepodge collection of tunes. It would be difficult to find music that went with this flick. Meg is always brooding and Tom tries to be lively but there just aren't any sparks in the show or between the characters. When the 2 hours are up you ask yourself "what was all that about?". So what happened to the romance and comedy? It was just a story about friends who e-mailed and got through a difficult personal situation. Main theme: "life goes on..." Hmmm, I'm hoping these two hilarious and talented actors pick a better script next time.
Rating: Summary: stupid film about stupid people Review: This is about as bad as it gets! The world doesn't need another brainless "feel-good-movie" from the US where you can guess how the end will be (and the whole film, for that matter) after five minutes. It's boring, unoriginal, unfunny, stupid, and so bloody romantic it makes you sick. And I dare say that even for Meg Ryan fans, there's a little bit too much Meg Ryan in this film. She's all cute, babbling and giggling a little to herself while wearing a cute pyjamas... give me a break! All in all, it's the most annoying film I've ever seen.
Rating: Summary: I find it close to pride and prejudice Review: The movie is great as expected. Both Meg and hanks have great chemistry on screen. There are many references to pride and prejudice. I felt the Dracy and Elijabeth are protrated in mordern sense. I didn't felt the movie is slow but it was gradually building just like in pride and prejudice. In all must see
Rating: Summary: Do Not Watch While Eating if you are Easily Nauseated Review: I stayed away from this movie before because I really don't care for Meg Ryan and think she is seriously overrated. I rented it because I figured it would at least be sort of romantic, and I like Tom Hanks ok. I didn't read other user comments before I saw it but I read them after and agree on so many points. First, she falls for him way too fast, even though he was responsible for ruining her business. Suddenly, since she has a man in her life, she gets completely over the fact that the business that she put her heart and soul to and was in her family for generations died a slow, painful death at the hands of his chain bookstore. Second, it would have been so much more interesting if it was reversed and the woman was the one with the big business. I'm not saying that to be feminist. I mean, they really made a big deal about how this was an "update" with "a 90's feel" and blah blah. I would have liked Tom Hanks more if 30 min into the film we didn't have this cutesy little montage to the tune of "splish splash" ( Wow! Baby boomer songs on the soundtrack! Bold choice, guys!) where Hanks takes some kids to a street fair and they get their faces painted, bob for apples, try on oversized sunglasses, etc until you want to puke. I mean, Tom Hanks is a pretty appealing guy when he turns on the charm--they didn't have to hit us over the head with it. I can't beleive Ryan's character didn't figure out who her email pal was sooner. An idiot would have been able to put 2 and 2 together and at least suspect. Their love letters they wrote to each other were trite and nauseating, though at least we were spared scenes of them meeting cute in a chatroom or newsgroup (alt.irritatingpinheads?). As far as Meg Ryan, she was as annoying as she gets. Also, she is not aging well, that sounds catty, but she doesn't look too good in this movie (not that I thought she was all that great looking to start with). Hanks has taken off some weight, but still looks bloated, though he can probably pull it off. He used to be a pretty good-looking guy in the 80's. Oh, and I hated Sleepless in Seattle too, but I think I hate this more, because at least Sleepless wasn't a 2 hour long commercial for AOL (notice how they never got a busy signal or had to wait to be connected)
Rating: Summary: Tom Hanks & Meg Ryan steal the hearts of America, once again Review: You've Got Mail is a must-see. The only reason I gave it only four stars was because it gets a little slow at some parts. I think it is better than Sleepless in Seattle and I'm not sure about Joe Versus the Volcano. Try When Harry Met Sally if you were a little disappointed with this one.
