Editorial Review: Description: Neigborhood bookstore rivals unwittingly become e-mail pen pals in this charming remake of The Shop Around the Corner DVD Features: Audio Commentary:Commentary with N. Ephron & L. Shuler-Donner DVD ROM Features:N.

In You've Got Mail, the quintessential boy and girl next door repeat the tentative romantic crescendo that made Sleepless in Seattle, writer-director Nora Ephron's previous excursion with the duo, a massive hit. The prospective couple do actually meet face to face early on, but Mail otherwise repeats the earlier feature's gentle, extended tease of saving its romantic resolution until the final, gauzy shot. The underlying narrative is an even more old-fashioned romantic pas de deux that is casually hooked to a newfangled device. The script, cowritten by the director and her sister, Delia Ephron, updates and relocates the Ernst Lubitsch classic, The Shop Around the Corner, to contemporary Manhattan, where Joe Fox (Hanks) is a cheerfully rapacious merchant whose chain of book superstores is gobbling up smaller, more specialized shops such as the children's bookstore owned by Kathleen Kelly (Ryan). Their lives run in close parallel in the same idealized neighborhood, yet they first meet anonymously, online, where they gradually nurture a warm, even intimate correspondence. As they begin to wonder whether this e-mail flirtation might lead them to be soul mates, however, they meet and clash over their colliding business fortunes. It's no small testament to the two stars that we wind up liking and caring about them despite the inevitable (and highly manipulative) arc of the plot. Although their chemistry transcended the consciously improbable romantic premise of Sleepless, enabling director Ephron to attain a kind of amorous soufflé, this time around there's a slow leak that considerably deflates the affair. Less credulous viewers will challenge Joe's logic in prolonging the concealment of his online identity from Kathleen, and may shake their heads at Ephron's reinvention of Manhattan as a spotless, sun-dappled wonderland where everybody lives in million-dollar apartments and color coordinates their wardrobes for cocktail parties. --Sam Sutherland Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Nice Romantic ComedyInternet dating when AOL was still huge. Good chemistry between Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks (will they ever do a romantic comedy together again?) Movie you'd enjoy cozying up to. Other movies to cozy up to: Sleepless in Seattle, The Notebook, Ever After... Rating: - Great sellerHad to return the first one. Seller was very quick to respond and send out another. Thank you. Rating: - Best everFun and entertaining....best movie I've seen in a long time...Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks make the perfect couple...the type movie that leaves you with a smile on your face and a warm feeling in your heart...a must see for all true romantics Rating: - You've Got MailThis is a great "feel good" movie. When you want to forget about the cares of the day, watch, "You've Got Mail". Rating: - "Just the beat of my heart. I have mail, from you....""All this nothing has meant more to me than so many somethings." -- Kathleen This captivating film from Nora Ephron about finding that special someone who makes our heart beat faster and lends love to our small lives is one of the best. While no adaptation of Lubitsch's The Shop Around the Corner starring Jimmy Stewart and the winsome Margaret Sullavan could be as fully realized as that screen classic, no one can deny the great romantic appeal and utter charm of this one.
