I went to Lake House reluctantly--I usually find both Bullock and Reeves a little cold (although they've been occasionally very strong in a few other movies, to be fair). But this is one of the best-paced movies I've seen in the... Full review

Critics Reviews
Austin Chronicle
As a romance, The Lake House is refreshingly low on melodrama, perhaps largely due to the subtle technique of Argentinean director Agresti (Valentn) .
As the final moments wrap up, one cant help but contemplate the film thats repeatedly referenced as an icon of romance throughout The Lake House , Alfred Hitchcocks masterpiece Notorious .

Combustible Celluloid
Twice during the new film The Lake House , characters watch Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious (1946) on television, specifically the famous "kissing" scene.
The Lake House comes up with certain half-considered excuses, mainly that Kate prefers the safety of the distance rather than an actual meat-and-potatoes relationship.

The Wylers are a family of architects and the architectural style of the Lake House is striking.
This is not one of those lame movies about destiny.
If you like this kind of film, see it quickly.

And yet, the romance is so touching, the emotions expressed by the leads so real, that it is a difficult film to not enjoy.
The film no sooner starts than it plays a bad card.

The Cinema Source
The Lake HouseReview By: Michael M. DanceMichaelDance@TheCinemaSource.com The Lake House is a sweet, even poetic love story with a plot structure that's way too distracting for its own good.
The characters were real and warm, and they dealt with the elements of the fantastic in a way that felt convincing.
