    ROMANTIC FANTASY (SCI-FI?). TEAR-JERKER.

    by MOVIES REVIEWER

    I am glad I finally caught up with this movie on DVD. And I am glad I did not see it in the theater. It would have been embarrassing....

    because, if you are really into this movie as I did - even on DVD - I am unashamed to admit that I was bawling my eyes out in the end. Can you imagine doing that in the theater? *shudder* .
    LOL, I am glad I was spared that public embarassment.

    Needless to say, I totally enjoyed this romantic tale of two souls connecting and falling in love across time and space.

    Both Sandra Bullock and Keanu infused their characters with ample empathy - and their chemistry helped to evoke a stirring sense of anxiety, hope, and loss.

    If you are averse to romance, this is not the movie for you.

    Otherwise, enjoy yourself - knock yourself out (preferably with a loved one or significant other) - and have a box of tissue handy. You might need it.

    The Fire Between Them!

    by susan_author1

    Okay, I saw this one more than once as it is a beautiful love story between two strangers who live worlds apart in time; and yet they come together with an undying passionate love!

    Every time Bullock pairs up with Reeves the fireworks light up the screen! These two are hot together. Come on you two, I want to see more movies with you together! Awesome team!
