Letters To Juliet is an enchanting story about love - of encountering new sparks and rekindling old flames. When a young American, Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), travels to Verona, Italy - the romantic city where Romeo first met Juliet - she meets a group of volunteers who responds to letters written to Juliet seeking advice about love. Sophie finds and responds to a letter that has been lost for 50 years, which inspires its author Claire (Vanessa Redgrave) to travel to Italy to find her her long-lost soul mate. Together, the two women embark on an adventure that will change their lives forever - a journey filled with laughter and companionship, discoveries about themselves and the meaning of true love.

Amazing Italian atmosphere full of alleyways and good food... I love it! Add to it a hopeless romantic and a bit of a jaded Romeo. A nice story about finding old and new love. Again, pretty naive, but strong. Plus I've always had a soft spot for balcony scenes and a nice soundtrack. Although I hate awkward misunderstandings like "Oh nooo, that's my cousin, that's not my girlfriend...". But that one made me close my eyes and cover my ears. I think "sweet" is the right word for this movie. Amanda Seyfried has made her reputation with me. Nice.

In beautiful Verona. What threatened to be a predictable summer romp without a clue ends as a romantic/nostalgic journey full of surprising kindness. Whether searching for long-lost or newly found emotions, everything slowly and subtly fits together so well that not even Gael García Bernal, as a chef/maniac, can disturb it. And when the charming Christopher Egan starts throwing sour bon mots, Letters to Juliet wins, with or without a balcony.
