This story is unique since it's about two people who meet at the end. There are no love or sex scenes. Nobody is crying or dying. It's a pleasant and feel-good movie. Moreover, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan truly make you... Full review

I'm not a huge fan of the sappy love stories out there but this movie was made enjoyable by Tom Hanks. Hanks plays the widower Sam Baldwin who, with the help of his son, finds love for the second time with... Full review

This is a movie with characters and performances which are appealing, and it is an old-fashioned, feel-good love story. The film also has a bit of sadness in its early part, thankfully not overdone. The five lead characters and the... Full review

The music truly magnifies our emotions and there are sections of the film that are most enjoyable watched only with the music accompaniment.
That's how I feel about Sleepless in Seattle, a movie to enjoy alone or with your lover.

Unfortunately, the level of forced humor and sappy sentimentality during Sleepless In Seattle seems awfully high, and this makes it really tough to take.
The movie starts at a funeral and feels most natural when it follows its emotional impulses.

Sleepless in Seattle is, quite simply, the best date movie of the year..... ... Full Review

At one point, Annie jokes about the knee-jerk emotional response to saccharine phone company commercials, but "Sleepless in Seattle" is designed to do exactly the same thing, producing an automatic smiling-through-the-tears response.
And that's the commercial wisdom at the gooey heart of "Sleepless in Seattle," which looks likely to be the "Jurassic Park" of date movies -- this romantic comedy tested so well with female audiences it was moved up from autumn to summer release.

As played by the blankly enthusiastic Meg Ryan, she's nice....It would seem that Nora Ephron thinks in clichés:....I just don't like it when the movie does the welling up for you.....It is one of the least appealing aspects of Sleepless in Seattle.... ... Full Review
