It was such a stunning movie.worth to watch it and learned so many things. tom hanks is best guy in my life.

So after watching the dreadful Set It Up I needed a decent romcom to clear the palate and saw When Harry Met Sally. Pretty great. Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal, written by Norah Ephron, directed by Rob Reiner. So last night I was tempted by Sleepless in Seattle, with Ephron, Ryan and Reiner showing up again in a slightly different configuration. Oh boy, the news is not good. Few scenes work, they lurch and stagger along and then just expire. Here's a great rule of thumb: when the supporting players have no chemistry, head for the hills. Rosie O'Donnell as Ryan's best friend looks uncomfortable, like her lines have crawled into her mouth and died. Hanks seems stiff and unconvincing, Ryan seems to be phoning it in. It's like the movie (or the director, or the writer) has taken it for granted we'll be swept up in the romance and hasn't bothered to do anything to earn our submission. Great romcoms put flesh on the mechanical romcom skeleton so we don't notice the mechanism. Here, it's laid bare and the whirring and clanking forestalls enjoyment of the goings-on. Interesting that the movie's romantic touchstone, An Affair to Remember (Ryan and O'Donnell mouth lines while watching it, and the Valentine's Day meeting on the Empire State Building is borrowed from it), is similarly stiff, dreary and unconvincing. Guess not everything Ephron touched turned to gold. Or maybe I'm alone in this view.

This movie is sorta ridiculous, but I love it anyway. There's not much to say about it except that it's the epitome of what a 'chick flick' should aspire to be. Though I'm a guy and I love is as much as most.This movie hasn't aged all that well, but I still think it belongs on the watch list of anyone who enjoys romantic comedies, dramas or the ones like this that aren't really either one of those exactly but somewhere in the middle.It's a classic and there's a reason it is. Give it a watch and if nothing else it's a harmless little movie intended to make you feel good.

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.)
