You won't be disappointed!
Absolutely the worst movie.
Absolutely Fantastic
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
When Harry met Sally was a massive critical and box office success when it was released. This is a witty comedy set in the big apple and both Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan are in fantastic touch. They were both huge stars at the time and the respective king and queen of comedy, unarguably. The reason the film was so successful is because it taps into the omnipresent societal dilemma: Can a man and woman simply be friends and nothing more. Nora Ephron's screenplay is one of the finest examples of a funny screenplay and Rob Reiner is a master filmmaker who is in sublime touch here. If there is one comedy drama I would recommend you watch it is when harry met sally.
When Harry Met Sally is a classic comedy. It's from a magical time when Billy Crystal could be a romantic lead and Meg Ryan was adorably not plastic. The dialogue is quick and witty and the characters are believable and likeable. Rob Reiner does a great job capturing the anxieties of friendship and romance.
When Harry Met Sally is the movie that, in my opinion, inspired the genre to become what so called romantic comedy nowadays. Approaching 3 decades since its release, this movie is reappy the definition of rom com. The chemistry, the jokes, character development, the relationship and the story itself are all we want from the genre. Directly or not, many elements of the rom com movie nowadays is influenced by When Harry Met Sally.
This is one of the best romantic comedies ever made, about a "gradual" romance. I liked the couples talking about their romances sprinkled in throughout the movie, and of course I loved the deli scene with the fake orgasm and the subsequent "I'll have what she's having" line. Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan first meet in college and run into each other several times over the years, gradually forming a friendship and eventually a romance despite Ryan's assessment that a man and a woman "can't be friends." Crystal and Ryan have terrific chemistry, and this movie is thoroughly funny and delightful throughout. I loved it and you will too.*** out of ****
