I saw this movie twice and can't wait to see it again.

Maybe it is because I saw this movie in a wonderfuly special place that it means so much to me. Or maybe it is because it is such a good movie. I always love it when I see a movie and it reminds me of the great feeling you get when your in love. This is a movie to see with someone close to you, either a great friend or your loved one. To all the actors, I say "wonderful work," to the director "brilliant", and to the writer "the godfather of romantic comedy" you never cease to amaze me, I still can't believe your in my life. Thanks for always inspiring me in every walk of life.

GREAT FLICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
