STAR POWER
It's a credit to Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan that they can elevate this by the books romantic comedy to more than it deserves. YOU'VE GOT MAIL reunites the two from SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE in a remake of THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER. He's a corporate bigwig whose Borders-like book store has a new store opening just around the corner from Ryan's homespun Shop Around the Corner. The focus of the story, however, is on their anonymous relationship via corresponding via e-mails. They're both in familiar but not permanent relationships: he with a rather snooty book editor (Parker Posey); she with a bombastic, if charming newsreporter (the delightful Greg Kinnear). Throw in some more familiar faces: Jean Stapleton as Ryan's mentor and buddy; Dabney Coleman as Hanks's somewhat lecherous father and you have all the ingredients for Nora Ephron's romantic fable. The ending is predictable but Hanks and Ryan do so well in getting there that you'll find yourself immersed in their inevitable pairing. Also some fine tunes by Nilsson, including his underappreciated but lovely REMEMBER (CHRISTMAS). You can do worse.

Warm,Funny and Totally Worth Watching
Although "You've Got Mail" has been around for a long time now,I got down to watching it only very recently..and really if you haven't watched it so far - do.

Its light, its funny and its so natural. Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan are chat friends on the internet, each thinks the other to be a completely adorable person.

However, when they meet in real life, its as business rivals. Its a war of the book stores - Meg Ryan's small 'Shop around the corner' which has been around for 42 years since her mother started it is a charming, cosy, place where children love to come and hear stories. Tom Hank opens a new store right across "The shop around the corner", the new store is huge, modern and discounted!
Sparks begin to fly between the two...but not forever...the ending is beautiful.

A smoothly flowing charming story, this movie is a must watch.

A Charming Classic Romantic Comedy
This is my Favorite romantic comedy. If you like chick flicks it's essential that you watch this one. Flawless acting, great story, and classic romance make this number one in my book. This is a must see!!!
