May 25, 2012a somewhat likable story and characters, but poor acting and serviceable script make this an ok film that feels like too many others in the genre.

September 22, 2011Whilst there was a truly heartwarming love story at the centre of this film, it was very Hollywood and I was in no doubt that Claire and Lorenzo would find each other, that Sophie and Charlie would get together, that Charlie would climb the tree and fall off... It was very predic... read more

June 23, 2011This story was good, not great. Wouldn't say this was Amanda Seyfried's best film but it was still a nice chick flick that had you smiling. The letters were beautifully written and warmed your heart. I'd still reccomend the film, as the ending wasn't dissapointing.

May 1, 2011With Amy Adams being all pregnant and stuff and Drew Barrymore having become a Big Important Director, Amanda Seyfried ("Dear John"), with her trademark Kewpie-doll eyes and blandly pouting lips, has officially taken over the chick flick market. This month's poison? "Letters to J... read more

March 30, 2011This is really cute movie; I enjoyed it more than most romantic comedies. All the characters are predictable and stereotypes but charming nonetheless. Amanda Seyfried as Sophie is an excellent lead. She carries the film, and you'll love her and empathize with her. I liked her and... read more

March 4, 2011Ah yes, such a chick flick, but an outstanding one. Come on Guys lighten up, buy some flower, make a dinner, and invite her over for a very enjoyable movie and evening. I mean what women would not love this movie. The movie is about a letter found at the wall of Juliet that was w... read more

February 7, 2011This movie was so cheesy and predictable.... but I still really liked it!! The characters, the plot, and everything came together to make this tripe enjoyable! Great performances, but nothing Oscar worthy!! lol

January 11, 2011I honestly thought I would be getting something a bit classier, substantial, fulfilling. Instead, what I got was a dumbed-down, cheesy and formulaic romantic comedy. Still, it's a little charming thanks to Amanda Seyfried, Vanessa Redgrave and the gorgeous Italian scenery. One-no... read more

November 19, 2010Glorious settings and a sweetly romantic story about the pursuit of an old, perhaps lost love make this a pleasure to watch. The fact that Vanessa Redgrave, giving her customary exemplary performance, and Franco Nero play the duo and have been together in real life for almost as ... read more

As you might guess, after a great deal of sniping Sophie and Charlie supposedly fall for each other. But the audience never buys it. Full Review

Tom Long, Detroit News
An amusing, touching, reassuringly wholesome romantic travelogue of a film that flies by on its way to the inevitable happy ending. Full Review

Joy Tipping, Dallas Morning News
Cinematographer Marco Pontecorvo's sun-drenched palette would be a perfectly sound reason to see this film, but happily it's not the only one. Full Review

Letters to Juliet represents an interesting paradox: it is a movie that is very nearly perfect without being especially good.

... while [Vanessa] Redgrave can't cut the clichés out of Letters to Juliet entirely, she at least cuts through them occasionally. Full Review

The story is as straight and obvious as raw spaghetti. Full Review

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News
Redgrave brings a lovely gravity to the lightweight proceedings, while Seyfried again proves an unusually levelheaded presence. Full Review

Redgrave is incandescent, and casting Franco Nero as Lorenzo was inspired. Full Review
