movie review - You've Got Mail

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Sydney, 2000.04.18

Having already seen Joe Vs. the Volcano (which I liked) and Sleepless in Seattle (which was okay), I'm not too sure why I watched this one. It's ably made, but walks where it should fly. Its slow pace and infuriating lack of conflict keep it from really achieving anything, and I found myself completely unsympathetic to the two characters.

Not recommended.
