Why oh Why?
I really wanted to like P.S I Love You. It seemed to have all the elements for a great movie, so what happened? For one, the movie was much to long for the simple outline it seemed to follow. For two, the characters really seemed very boring. There was so much of this movie that simply could have been cut out. At points in the movie when it would flash back to the past there seemed not to be any real strong connection to the present which most of the movie is set in. I almost wanted to forget all about the present and know more about the past "Holly" & "Gerry" shared. I felt like at the point that "Gerry" dies, which is early on, so does also the movie. It just didn't seem to come to life although Hilary Swank really did her best to put forth the energy to do so. Overall I think this is more a movie to rent than to see in the theater.
