Reasons to see PS I Love You:

* Blithe subversion of an expected cliché at the end. It was great. I laughed.

* Excellent use of - of all the bands you'd expect in a romantic comedy! - Flogging Molly.

* Jeffrey Dean Morgan. With an Irish accent. Getting naked for the camera. I am reconsidering the "probably wouldn't sleep with him" thing. I mean, as if his voice wasn't sexy enough. I about spontaneously combusted.

Reasons not to see PS I Love You:

* If you don't like crying in a theatre. Because you will. Yes, even you.

* It is slowly paced and a good twenty minutes too long.

* Not enough of Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Though at least he doesn't die.

. . . yeah, I've got it bad.

Anyway. I liked the movie well enough and didn't feel like the vast, vast amounts of screentime not containing Jeffrey Dean Morgan were a waste of time. Coming from me, a staunch disliker of the romance genre, that is high praise indeed. There was good stuff in it, and I thoroughly enjoyed the ending, but I have a feeling that in a week I'm not going to remember much of it except the accent and the ass shot. And the guitar. Mrf.

Not me! I never cry!

How can a movie that also has Gerard Butler, James Marsters and Harry Connick Jr (the actual reason I'm seeing this one in the theatre) possibly be a waste of time without JDM hot as he is?

[remindmeofthe.livejournal.com]

None of them get naked.

[coneyislandbaby]

Okay, that's fair.

Well not fair because at least one of the other guys should get naked too.

Mind you if Harry sings, I'd trade that. I love his voice.

I'm considering seeing it just cuz of Hilary Swank.

... and dude. Is JDM the... dead husband? :: vaguely remembers the trailer... but only vaguely ::

[coneyislandbaby]

Don't think it's spoilery as someone said this outside of a cut, but apparently this is a role that for once JDM doesn't die in, so I guess he's not?

Huh. That's just the only person I remember having an Irish accent in the trailer. But it's been a few weeks, so I could be remembering wrong ^^ Thanks.

I friended back... not that I ever friends lock much of anything in my LJ... but I wanted to. I hope that's okay.

Not a problem. I don't mind being friended a bit. I only tell people when I've friended them because I know some folks are picky about it. Just be prepared for a bunch of baseball talk when the season starts back up. *g*

Edited because my brain decided that "hope you don't mind" was the phrase invoked and thus that "not at all" was the correct response, when, um - it wasn't. XD
