3/5
You could do worse
by C. Hurwitz (Asia)
It's cute with some good acting. What I liked about it the best was the non-Hollywood ending.
4/5
Fairly enjoyable, and Kate Capshaw is totally...
by Eduardo Nietzsche (Houston)
...GORGEOUS...just a pleasure to watch her in this movie, the camera really knows how to bring out the goddess in her, she is exquisite! Amazing that she was 46 at the time. Mama mia, this film would be a potent recruiting tool for The International MILF/Cougar Fan Club, lol.
Ellen Degeneres also puts in an excellent performance, the rest of the cast is solid, though I didn't even recognize Tom Selleck since his "Magnum P.I." days---looks about a good 60lbs heavier!
I like that this film's ending was hopeful but open-ended...not the usual schmaltzy "happily ever after into the sunset" crap that too many romantic comedies sell out to at the end. The music is very nice too, reminded me of a Woody Allen film soundtrack.
This is not exactly a grand artistic film, but still quite enjoyable and plenty of eye candy, decent acting and dialogue, not overly flaky or cliche-ridden like most of this genre.
5/5
*Enjoyable Movie To Watch*
by Melissa Blubaugh (Maryland,United States)
I really enjoyed this movie.It had people in it that you grew to like and care about.It was a very easy movie to watch and enjoy.
4/5
Finally a romantic comedy that doesn't conform to the same old Hollywood mold!!
by Kimberly Hartman (Kansas City, MO)
Don't get me wrong...I'm as likely as anyone else looking for a "chick flick" to watch the latest Meg Ryan movie with the cute leading man....but this movie adds something extra. Instead of just dishing out the same old blather that most romantic comedies spout (girl & guy meet, girl & guy go through some conflict, but eventually guy & girl get together and live happily ever after) this movie actually takes the time to explore what makes a relationship between two people special and unique, whether that relationship is between two friends, lovers, or family members.
This movie is also great because it expounds upon the HUGE role that a person's mind plays when it comes to love and sex.
Kate Capshaw's character, Helen, is great for audience members who still haven't figured out that women are sexual beings and that it's OKAY for them to enjoy sex! (Even with a much younger man!)
All the characters remind us that even though we may not have everything figured out, you can always learn some new tricks, no matter what your age.
If you're in the mood for mindless entertainment, I wouldn't recommend this movie. However, if you're ready for a touching and romantic but still lighthearted flick, this is a good one!!
4/5
Really sweet and easy to watch
by Sara Austin (Washington State)
Surprisingly good, and Kate Capshaw is very engaging. The romance between her and the younger man is totally beleivable (the absence of any other younger beauties is conspicuous, however). That aside, it's a great comedy with just a touch of bittersweet--one of my favorites.
The Love Letter Summary
A Romantic Comedy About A Mysterious Love Letter That Turns A Sleepy New England Town Upside Down. Bonus Features: Talent Bios Production Notes Theatrical Trailer And Deleted Scenes. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 01/06/2004 Starring: Kate Capshaw Tom Everett Scott Run Time: 89 Minutes Rating: Pg13 Director: Peter Ho-sun Chan
Its ads portrayed it as a wacky farce, while critics largely ignored it, presuming it to be a vanity project from Kate Capshaw (better known as Mrs. Steven Spielberg). But
The Love Letter
is neither; on the contrary, it's a low-key but surprisingly rich and touching film about love, illusions, and regret. Helen (Capshaw), a bookseller in a small seashore town, discovers an unsigned love letter that's fallen into the cushions of a couch in her store. The letter doesn't say who it's for, but Helen assumes it's for her and starts wondering who sent it. One would expect this to lead to a whirling comedy of mistaken identities, but after some amusing daydream moments, the movie follows its story with subtlety and nuance. The characters behave according to their own needs and desires, rather than the demands of standard Hollywood goofiness. The performances--from a cast including Tom Selleck (
In and Out
), Tom Everett Scott (
That Thing You Do
), Ellen DeGeneres (
EDtv
), newcomer Julianne Nicholson, and others--are uniformly unforced and natural. Viewers weary of the hyped-up, absurd emotional climaxes of most so-called romantic comedies will find a respite here.
The Love Letter
is a genuinely charming film.
