Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
ThrillMessage There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.
Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Ineffable 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.
harshsaini-64496 I personally fell in love with her eyes and God Tom Hanks looked handsome when he had hair, and the story is of the simpler time, I think for today's generation it will serve as a reminder that life doesn't have to be fast-paced. Enjoy the moment, instead of being anxious about the next one.
Honeybee-ct Sleepless in Seattle creates many emotions in the viewers that develop throughout the entire movie through music. When Sam is looking for his son, a piano is used for music, which is slow and soft with minor sad notes. The music however builds up as Sam and Annie get closer together, changing to happy playful tunes, a song of triumph. This creates such an emotional response in the viewers as it tells the viewer how to feel just by the tender sad notes or playful happy notes.The cessation of music creates suspense, a moment for viewers to breathe and wonder what will happen next. Music was controlling the entire ending of Sleepless in Seattle, it unearthed emotions within me because the music took me on a journey whilst watching images, rather than the images taking me on a journey. The power of positive and negative notes in music cannot be measured and Sleepless in Seattle uses music with purpose and intent. This is one of my favourite all time movies!!!
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!
