    Meg Ryan's hair is the best thing. Not the best thing of the movie, the best thing of all the things.

    Another insanely unrealistic, loyalty-optional, terrible "romcom". Walter really got dumped by his WIFE bc of some guy she heard on the damn radio, proceeds to stalk him and cheat on Walter physically and mentally. Lol how do u people even find this cute, yall scare me. 1/5

    Pretty sure I’ve seen this before, but fully rewatched and ughhh it’s so adorable. Such an incredible love story that really tugs at your heart strings a bit while also being funny.

    Good but I thinks it’s a little overrated they spend the entire day of the movie looking for each other, and I just find that sort of pointless but it is a good rom-com 6/10

    Good but they literally did not meet until the last 30 seconds and Neil was disappointed by the lack of them “in the sack”

    Sleepless in Seattle feels extra special to me because Seattle isn’t just the setting, it’s the soul of the whole movie. Since I was born there and still love it so much, watching the city show up in all its dreamy, rainy charm makes the story hit even harder. The houseboat on Westlake feels like…

This is a dreamy, romantic fantasy whose mood falls somewhere between magic and reality.

Not since Love Story has there been a movie that so shrewdly and predictably manipulated the emotions for such entertaining effect.

While celebrating the lushly romantic, it also tweaks the tradition so that Sleepless in Seattle ends up something akin to a feature-length Taster's Choice commercial.
