How Do You Feel About When Harry Met Sally?

Sometimes a movie is a movie and you take it as it is, that’s how When Harry Met Sally is for me. It’s a movie I enjoy, I’m not gonna over think it, no reason to.

I suppose if anything, the film is more sentimental for me more than anything. And it’s a film that I don’t get tired of at all. I’m sure many people have some relationship film that they are quite endeared to.

Jazz – I actually really enjoyed BRIDGES when I watched it and I was really young! LOL However, in the end, I would consider it “sappy” not in a negative way, but in the sense of overly sentimentalized. It’s literally a dripping wet drama (bath tub, rain, sweat, tears and artificially watered down pavement for effect). :)

The fake orgasm in the coffee shop was the funniest thing I ever saw. I especially liked the customer’s remark, “I’ll have what she’s having.”

We guys can’t do that, I guess. On the other hand, I never tried.

I really love When Harry Met Sally…, which is puzzling to me since I hate many of the things that comprise it: Billy Crystal, Meg Ryan, romantic comedies…. It really seems more like a fantasy than anything else, and the far fetched stories in the interludes, as well as the far fetched story of Harry and Sally, really appeal to me, being a hopeless romantic.

Having just finished a viewing of this, like most Reiner films the movie is a perfect example of infantile story-telling. the insights are as terrible and funny (and forced) as a standup routine. Read: not funny at all.

The film basically establishes the 90s romantic comedy archetype perfectly. So it should get a medal for creating an artless format that sucks the soul out of the viewer as efficiently as say sitcom tv shows.

I get that people have a sentimental or “guilty pleasure” attachment to trash like this, but let’s do Mubi a favor and keep it to yourself. You’re just making this site look as low-brow as imdb,

You may think I’m just bitter from having committed an hour an a half into yet another in along series of fatuous failures,

And you would be right,

I just saw it a couple weeks ago for the first time, and I have to say I loved it. It just worked for me on every level.

Awful, terribly unfunny movie.

oh all the sappy 90’s romantic comedies, when harry met sally is probably the best of them all, and the funniest with the most memorable scenes.

i think it would be extremely difficult not to watch that film, especially in your mid-30’s, and just laugh.

i can still imagine carrie fisher pulling out the rolodex of single men’s names and numbers when sally tells her that she’s just broken up with her long time boyfriend. i mean, who hasn’t had that happen? it’s soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo funny.

and it’s so relevant.

give me sleepless in seattle and i’ll barf on anything.

and why don’t they have sunday underwear?
