Funny romantic comedy with flashbacks that makes us all want to figure out the world of love, life, and relationships.

Rating: 6/10 (22 December 2007)

"P.S. I Love You" is certainly a pretty funny and touching romantic comedy that leaves the viewer with laughs while mostly the story of gone love is told by flashbacks. Yet the film proves a point that love, relationships, and happiness is always a constant search. Really the big negative on the film is that really no chemistry is developed or so it seems with the central characters. You have Hilary Swank in a decent performance as Holly Kennedy a woman married to hunky Irish singer Gerry(Gerard Butler). Holly is depressed because her big hobby is collecting shoe heels while she desperately wants a baby, yet her hubby is playing hard yet both still passionately and strongly love one another. Suddenly despite Gerry's good looks and life the films take a massive twist all of a sudden switching to his death brought on by an apparent brain tumor? Then for the next year the theme is love only by love letters that were written by Gerard before his death, the chemistry of the present is so little as Holly daydreams so much getting much of her pleasure by remembering and flashbacks. Yet the movie has much wit and funny one liners the acting from Hilary was well done and Lisa Kudrow and Gina Gershon provide witty laughs as Hilary's best friends Denise and Sharon one a husband hunter and the other an expecting mother respectively. The biggest and most hidden strong point of the film is the direct and caring performance from Kathy Bates as Patricia which is Hilary's mother. And Hilary provides some sexy and funny scenes and just to mention Harry Connick Jr. gives a likable performance as Holly's potential love interest. Overall nothing special not really enough chemistry or enough deep character development, but still watchable proving that in life and love the unexpected happens and that one should try and cherish every moment especially when one has it. As the film proves when one is searching and trying to rediscover love it's many times an ongoing search that we all just try to still figure out and search for happiness and new discovery. With most importantly breaking away from a gripped love hold past.
