Magical

Rating: 10/10 (22 January 2006)

At first the film starts with a slow opening: easing you into the film. This alone was a reason to change the channel and watch something else. But something about it drew me in and kept me watching. But within 3 minutes I was glad I was still watching the film. The lives of the two main characters couldn't be any more different, but isn't that the whole point of a love story? The film takes you on a journey of the characters lives, showing not only the good moments but the bad as well. Just when your about to give up on the couple, and admit that not all love stories have a happy ending. The film bounces back to life and shows that nothing can stand in the way of true love. Just as you begin to be overcome with joy, you find yourself tearing up towards the end. I don't want to give too much away but its so happy its sad I found myself in hysterics while the credits rolled. All I wanted was to rewind and watch it again...obviously with TV its practically impossible so I bought the DVD this morning, in order to feed my hunger for it. I recommend this film to anyone. You don't have to enjoy romances to really get into this film, its more than a chick flick, its a work of art...a beautiful film.
