When Harry Met Sally (film review)

Film: When Harry Met Sally
Year: 1989
Genre: Comedy, drama, romance
Starring: Billy Crystal, Meg Ryan, Carrie Fisher
About: Harry and Sally have known each other for years, and are very good friends, but they fear sex would ruin the friendship.

 My Review:
Having never seen When Harry Met Sally before even though it is one of the most popular rom-com movies around I decided I would check it out and finally see if it is as good as everyone was making it out to be.

The film is about two people named Harry and Sally who end up going to New York together and then go their separate ways, however after many years they run into each other and start to become friends. As they do and both see start seeing other people they realise that they both love each other but refuse to tell each other.

I thought this film was good in the way that it had between scenes old couples saying how they had found their love at first sight and sharing their stories, this is something that I found rather adorable. I also thought it was very fitting with the film as it goes alongside how Harry and Sally feel about each other. I also liked the way that it showed how Harry and Sally were not ready for each other romantically for a long time showing that sometimes it takes a bit longer to be with the one you are meant to be with however it will happen if it is meant to.

I would recommend this  movie to those who like romance films and want something which seems a lot more real than a lot of romance films you are able to see. This is a film which has aged well and deserves to still be very well known.

My Rating: 4/5

Having the film show how the girls team was cut from Viola's school and showing how she just wanted to play and would have played on the b...

Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8lDreq9le4 My Review: Wanting to watch a rom-com and having this on my Watch List on Netflix I couldn't resist but give this film a chance and see what I thought. Having liked Emma Roberts in everything I had seen her in previously as well I was excited to see if this was another film of hers in which I would enjoy. This film surprised me however I ended up enjoying this more than I expected. I liked that this film had a Romeo and Juliet vibe with the families not liking each other however the children both being in love with each other and feeling that their families were the reason in which they couldn't be together. I also thought it was clever having the gr...
