Tom Hanks stars alongside Meg Ryan for a second time in another fabulous romance – You've Got Mail. This movie is based off the classic “The Shop Around The Corner”, but replaces pen-pals with an update of “chat rooms”. If you watch this movie now – you will laugh at how out-dated even this “update” is on technology.
Tom Hanks is Joe Fox – a Mega-Bookstore owner that rakes in the cash and puts all small shops out of business. Meg Ryan plays Kathleen Kelly, a woman looking for substance in life and struggling to keep her small bookstore business alive that she inherited from her late mother.
The two complete strangers meet each other on a chat room over the Internet, and feel an instant connection. They continue to correspond with one another, and their interest in each other deepens. As they are under secret user names and are completely unaware of each other's true identity, they feel free to be themselves.
Online, Kathleen cries out to Joe for advice about her small bookstore, and she takes what she gives him. (This turns into her bashing his business over the news that night – him having no idea that it's really his online love interest). Finally – they decide to meet. They know of each other in person, they know of each other online, but for all they know that means completely different people.
Joe discovers that it's really Kathleen before she knows it – and he despises her, yet is conflicted as he knows her true kind self from their online chats. Where will this mess of a situation take them?
I've always liked this movie, but it's not one of my favorites. It makes me laugh how out-dated it is now, but the love story that it holds will never become obsolete. Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan never fail to impress with their dynamic on screen – and You've Got Mail has proven to be another cute feel-good film that people will always turn to.
