Movie Review: Sleepless in Seattle

Length: 105 mins
Released: 1993
Genre: Romantic Comedy, Drama
Rating: PG for some bad language

Directed By: Nora Ephron
Where I Got It: My Shelf (Christmas gift)



Sleepless in Seattle is about two different people from opposite sides of the United States who are made for each, but they don't know it. They also never met each other. However, the two are connected when Sam's (from Seattle) son, Jonah, calls a radio talk show and asks for a new wife for the newly widowed Sam. On the other end, Annie is listening to radio and for some reason feels extremely connected to this Sam guy. Will true love prevail half a country away? 


 In this little romance, the amazing Tom Hanks (Saving Private Ryan, The Green Mile) plays Sam, Meg Ryan (When Harry Meet Sally, You've Got Mail) plays Annie, Ross Malinger (Sudden Death, Recess) as the adorable Jonah, Bill Pullman (While You Were Sleeping, Independence Day) as Walter, and Rosie O'Donnell (A League of Their Own) as Becky. 


The original plan was to watch this as I did some homework, but that failed because I couldn't keep my eyes of the screen. I've seen bits and pieces of this in my youth, but I never actually sat down and watched, so I felt it to be fate when I received this as a gift from my Aunt Kelly. I'm so glad I decided to watch this!


I was a little unsure how I would like this, but my doubts were laid to waste when Tom Hanks first opened his mouth. Tom Hanks is one of my many heroes and I look up to him. Plus, I had forgotten how good-looking he was in his youth. ^.^ 

Anyways...this was a cute movie. I doubt this would ever really happen, but heck, we romantics can dream can't we? The dialogue was extremely well and the humor was light and a little dry, but dry in a good way. If you understand what I'm trying to say? The humor wasn't over the top and it seemed these events really did happen. I must applaud the screen writings and the actors who carried the dialogue out very well.



Even though its a romance, there isn't much romance between the two to-be lovers. This upset me a little bit...I know this is the point of the movie, but there was only one spark of love and chemistry between the two. I also wish that they would've had an epilogue of sorts at the very end. The ending...just ended. There was a lot of unanswered questions. For example, where did they decide to move? Did they stay together? Did they get married? What did Victoria say when Sam "broke up" with her?


Other than those two negative points, I really liked this movie. It was cute, funny, and fed my hopeless romantic inside of me. Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan were wonderful. I rooted for their characters throughout the whole movie. Overall, I grant this movie 4 stars out of 5. I would recommend this to other hopeless romantics out there or for those looking for a cute movie to watch. I'm sorry this is a slightly short review, but I'm not sure what else to say.


Favorite Character(s):  Sam (yummah), Annie, Walter, and Jonah
Not-so Favorite Character(s): Victoria (whenever she laughed I flinched *shudders*)
Favorite Quote(s): "Well, it was a million little things that, when you added them up, they meant we were suppose to be together...and I knew it. I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home...only to no home I'd ever known...I was just taking her hand to help her out of a car and I knew. It was...like magic." - Sam
