Summary: Tom-Meg combination is all-time romance favorite!
Review: When I turn 30 and Mr. Right still hasn't arrived, I'll probably start to think he never will. But meantime, I have the lovable Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan to keep me inspired. You've Got Mail is a romantic delight.

Summary: A wonderful romantic comedy for adults
Review: YOU'VE GOT MAIL is a wonderful romantic comedy for adults. There have been a lot of first-class versions of this material, including a B&W non-musical version from Ernst Lubitsch in 1940 (The Shop Around the Corner) and a 1949 color musical version starring Judy Garland and Van Johnson (In the Good Old Summertime). Even as a big fan of James Stewart, Margaret Sullavan, Garland and Johnson, I think I prefer Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks the most.

YOU'VE GOT MAIL is basically a color version of THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER, but without a despairing adultery and suicide attempt subplot. And the script expertly rethinks the material for 1990's Manhattan. Hanks and Ryan no longer work in the same novelty shop as secret letter correspondent lovers. Ryan is now the manager of "The Shop Around the Corner" for rare books; this eliminates both the adultery and the attempted suicide from the 1940 version. Hanks is the son of a contractor building the equivalent of a Barnes & Noble that will put Ryan's store out of business. So we now have something really interesting--business competitors who are secretly in love. And since this is the 1990's, e-mail is now the writing device for their letters.

This is a lovely film, pleasantly old-fashioned, and acted to perfection by two very appealing stars. And its apartment e-mail plot should make it even better on home video. The finale sent me into the stratosphere, it's so exquisitely romantic. YOU'VE GOT MAIL is an absolute "must-see" that does honor to its very good predecessors. It is worth owning to play each Valentine's Day.

Summary: A get away from your regular life movie....Very cute!!
Review: This is a very fun movie, even though the whole time you are thinking, "yah, right like that would actually happen in real life..." Hanks and Ryan have such great chemistry and the plot, although predictable it is very witty and funny.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Date movie!!!
Review: I first saw this movie with my girlfriend and it was soooo romantic!! Meg and Tom have such great charisma, and it was refreshing to see Tom Hanks in a not-so-perfect character. I saw it again on an airplane, and loved it just as much. GOTTA SEE!!

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Super Movie!
Review: This movie is one of my all time favorites! Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan were superior as usual! I loved the story which is so fitting with the 90's. So many people are on the Internet now and keeping in touch with friends and family by email,therefore,it was made in perfect timing! I hope directors will never lose touch with making movies like this one which make you feel good and happy when you leave the theatre. We need more laughs and fun movies like this!!! And we definitely need more Tom and Meg!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun stuff
Review: We've seen the movie 6 times, how's that? The writing is so good, you have to see it that many times to catch all of it.
