You?ll love it!)System Requirements:Running Time: 126 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/ROMANTIC COMEDY Rating: PG-13 UPC: 085391138624 Manufacturer No: 113862Amazon.com: For those who believe true love lasts beyond this physical plane, P.S. I Love You is a jewel in the romantic-movie crown. With elements of Ghost, Heaven Can Wait, and My Life, the film is an unabashed valentine to the notion of lasting (everlasting?) love. Hilary Swank is Holly, a deeply happy lass married to the most impossibly adorable Irishman on the planet, Gerry (Gerard Butler). When an illness takes him from her, Holly spirals into depression. Then, as if from beyond the grave, communications, gifts, and remembrances from Gerry begin to appear--gestures he'd planned knowing his death was coming. The "communications" with her dead husband could threatened to keep Holly in past, yet they begin to pave a path into her future. Swank, not a traditional romantic actress, is quite moving as Holly, whose grief and confusion is palpable. Butler will win new continents of fans, largely female, as the yummiest honey one could wish for. Special kudos to the supporting cast, including Lisa Kudrow as a Holly pal, and James Marsters and Kathy Bates, always breaths of fresh air onscreen. Under the sure hand of director-writer Richard LaGravenese, P.S. I Love You is touching, sad (have tissues on hand), and heartbreakingly lovely. --A.T. Hurley
Customer Reviews:
- ...and the tears came.: I saw the previews for this movie and of course it looked like a tear jerker. I don't cry at movies tho. And my boyfriend was catching on to this pretty quick. I wanted to cry at this one, to show him I'm not some heartless robot (he assured me he never thought this, but the fear was still there.) We went, we saw, I cried. This was such a cute movie, I can't wait till it comes out next week. And I love love love the usage of Flogging Molly's song, If I Ever Leave This World Alive. I get misty eyed when I hear the song come on my mp3 player even now. Great movie if you're into tear jerkers, just plain sweet love stories, and Irish accents :-)
- LOVED IT!: Loved it!
I love him, I love his accent!
What a beautiful story!
Don't miss it! - Great tear-jerker romance: I'll skip the plot description, since it looks like a lot of people have already supplied that, and just say this is a really great movie. I haven't read the book, so I can't compare the two, but the movie is a wonderful and very poignant love story with great performances by Gerard Butler and Hilary Swank, as well as lots of lovable supporting characters. I thought it was very easy to sympathize with Swank in her grief. It is incredibly sad, though, and I cried almost from start to finish, so bring the tissues!
- P.S. I Love You: This movie is very boring. It describes a wife thinking about his dead husband everyday. Thinking of the time before...It is forgettable after seeing this movie.
- Love this movie!: I originally saw this movie in the theatre and loved it so much that I pre-ordered on Amazon. There aren't too many movies that can bring a tear to your eye and make you fall in love with all of the character's, while making you feel like you are experiencing their heartbreak and sharing in their joy. Excellent performance by Hillary Swank and cast.
