    I am totally infuriated by the fact that - SPOILER ALERT - MR's character winds up with TH's after his BigBoxBookSuperstore went out of its way to put her beautiful, labor-of-love, independently owned children's bookstore out of business. There's no excuse for a "feel-good" movie...( read more) like this. Shameless, shameless, corporate crap.

    Such a cute movie! More people can relate to this now, as opposed to when it first came out, as internet dating is huge these days.

    responsible for internet dating?

    Very predicatble, similar to Sleepless in Seattle - the characters don't know each other but are destined to meet. They chat via email, but don't realise they loathe each other in real life.

    So cute! One of my favorite romcoms! The story is invented originally, and the movie is just so sweet and cosy! Acting is fine. Meg and Tom have great chemistry!
    I LOVE it! Go watch it!

    Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks makes a movie yet again! They've done three together and I hope they'll make more as a team!

    Meg Ryan is so beautiful and impressive that I forgot Tom Hanks also starred.. Although the story is almost impossible, her beauty attracted me to the screen.

    Hanks and Ryan have a chemistry that's undeniable. Better than Sleepless in Seattle.

    I recently re-watched this movie and the scene where Tom Hanks is talking about what you order at Starbucks can define you struck me. It got me to wondering-should I be concerned that I am a tall, toffee NUT mocha?
