 | Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan are our generation's Doris Day and Rock Hudson. Again and again they make an amazing on-screen couple. The chemistry between the two of them is remarkable and makes the movie.
In this modern day Sleepless in Seattle, two people have been conversing through email. They discuss things as simple as butterflies on the subway. Over numerous emails this couple seems to be perfect for each other. Meanwhile the people behind their online alias are Joe Fox and Kathleen Kelly. Two people which are both in the book business and naturally Joe Fox is trying to buy out Kathleen Kelly's bookstore.
The online couple decide to meet in person where Joe Fox finds out it was Kathleen Kelly he was chatting with. He keeps this secret to himself and continues to converse. The ending is priceless and will cause all to cry with joy.
This modern day romance movie is a great flix to see with family and even and great date movie. I recommend this to all ages.

| You got Mail is a cute love story, but really predictable. i did like it though, Tom and Meg go together really well. The main stiryline is two bookstore owners going head to head and they can't stand each other, but little do they know that they are chatroom friends!! Twisted and sweet. Although, I has to say that it portrayed NYC very unralistically,clean streets, sunlight everywhere. kinda odd, but still good, give it a try |

| This movie is the perfect romantic comedy. Tom and Meg's chemistry are charming on screen. I loved how they fought each other and their own struggle with their feelings for each other. I saw this movie before I had seen the movie it re-made "The Shop Around the Corner" with James Stewart and Margaret Sullavan and the other re-make with Judy Garland and Van Johnson "In the Good Old Summertime". And I hardly like re-makes but, Nora Ephron has done a perfect job of making this film with adding her own touches. But of course with Ephron, Ryan, and Hanks what could go wrong? |

| As I read the reviews for this movie I am shocked, even surprised at those who have writen comments about Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan previous movies, most note that Tom and Meg had only one previous movie together, when actually they were in "Joe and the Volcano" before "Sleepless". Meg played three different characters in that movie. "You've Got Mail" was the third installment for Hanks and Ryan. I enjoyed this movie more than the two previous. The soundtrack is outstanding and the appearance of both lead actors is exceptional. It is a "romantic comedy", which both do quite well together and separately. The joining of a complimentary supporting cast (Jean Stapleton, Steven Zane, Heather Burns, Parker Posey, Dabney Colemen and Greg Kinnear) makes "You've Got Mail" Nora (director) and Delia (co-writer) Ephron the best team for romantic comedies. Nora has been with Meg Ryan since "When Harry Met Sally", but the finale of "You've Got Mail" was the best way to end the relationship with Hanks and Ryan. Meg continues on with the Ephron sisters in "Hanging Up" and hopefully will continue to make great productions in the future. Hanks and Ryan will always be "top" box office draws even working independantly, they have the gift of making romance, drama, actually anything believeable. Sometimes when I watch "You've Got Mail", I wonder if Tom Hanks is delivering a true to life protrail of his relationship with wife Rita Wilson. Meg Ryan has the gift of true comedic style, as well as perfect form and delivery, she is in a class of her own, with the exception of Katherine Hepburn.
The music of "You've Got Mail" brings a wide variety of artist to the screen. I get captured in the sounds as well as the dialoque. Watching Tom Hanks shake a Martini to the sounds of Randy Newman's "lonely at the top" or seeing Meg Ryan decorate a christmas tree to Harry Nilsson's "remember", there is nothing better.
This movie was just the tip of the iceberg in regards to where the Internet and Email has come today. "You've Got Mail" is now synonymous with the movies and the email! |
