    Before You Got Mail, there was a movie with the same premise, where a man and a woman meet over the radio.

    Perfect example of a romantic fantasy. Loved the Fatal Attraction scene and it's effect on men. LOL.

    Tom Hanks is as enchanting as ever, but it's too mushy and romantic for my liking. A chick flick that even I had trouble sitting through.

    Apparently, there's nothing that makes a romantic-comedy more than Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks - this is one of at least three of theirs.

    Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan can always bring a winning performance when they are working together. However, the ending and plot was a little cheesy and predictable.

    A little boy Jonah calls a radio statiion to say he wanted a new wife for his dad who is widowed. Thousands of marriage proposals some in. Jonah is set on a girl called Annie (Meg Ryan) and she feels destined to meet Sam (Tom Hanks) . Drags on a bit, but can't wait until they meet.

    The sweetest romantic comedy of the 90's. Ryan and Hanks have fantastic chemistry. I don't like it as much as You've Got Mail, but still, it's wonderful nonetheless!

    A very sweet film. I loved that it wasn't such a cliche of a film, since they don't really meet eachother until the end.

    I first saw this movie when I was a little kid with my sister Angie and I have loved this movie ever since. I love the opening with all the stars in the sky and the music. I bought the soundtrack years ago.

    It's the type of movie that never gets old, always helps you get in a better mood, and when you want to dwell it's always there.
