Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

kunalb-05263 Writing a review for a movie which was released even before I was born is really funny.Too bad I hadn't seen it until today... Rom-com is a genre which I rarely engage inI think the last time I saw a Rom-com was "No String Attached" (2011)What can I say I really liked this film.It is a simple sweet story. Sam(Tom Hanks), has lost his wife and lives with his 8 yr old son and has recently moved to Seattle, WA. Even after a year and a half he still finds himself missing his wife and pining for love. Then one incident happens which changes everything.Surely one of the best Romantic movies I have seen so far, having usually seen the Tom Hanks in his Dan Brown films, it was weird for me watching him so young. Meg Ryan plays her part to perfection.The film is studded with amazing singles from the 80's. I loved the "Make someone happy" by Jimmy Durante.Go watch it you won't regret it!

mike48128 To quote others, "It sets out to do what it is supposed to do". Sure the characters and their actions are somewhat predictable and not at all realistic. Who believes in "love-at-first sight", let alone "voice-at-first-sight". Predestination? Celestial coincidence? The only fault is that Bill Pullman gives up too easily. Meg Ryan is so perfect in her role that she makes it all seem believable. A beautiful rainy-afternoon-movie. It is up there with a few other feel-good-movies in my library: "Goodbye Girl", "While you were sleeping", "McClintock", "Pollyanna", and several classic musicals, including "7 Brides" and "Grease". I will sit through these anytime with my wife, kids, or dog. Yes! they are calming and delightful, "Chick Flicks" or not. An amazing supporting cast helps the movie "breathe" quite a bit. Sure the ending song and lit-up Empire State Building is super-corny. Who cares? 10 stars, 2 hankies, and one Teddy Bear!

johnwiltshireauthor I was forced to watch this. I tried to resist. I did. But, John, they said, it's a classic romance... I don't even know where to start saying how awful this film is. The acting is atrocious. The main male character is a boring, depressed widower with an obnoxious son (this is the kind of film that finds American kids swearing and talking about sex cute) and the female lead is supposed to convince us that she falls in love with a monotone voice on the radio. I have still not recovered from watching this movie. All I can do is to warn others. Save yourself now. Run. (And do not trust the movie recommendations of slightly inebriated women.)

Goku89 This movie was a pleasant surprise. I was expecting it to be good since people talk about it all the time but what I didn't know how funny it was! Haven't actually laughed out loud at a movie since a very long time.Some of the scenes were so simple but hilarious.Meg and Tom's chemistry was incredible.The story was different, heartfelt, and beautiful. It made me cry multiple times!!I would highly recommend everyone to watch this.Also I think this 6.8 is way too low. It should be more!They don't make movies like this anymore which is such a shame.Must watch, timeless movie!
