Movie Reviews of The Lake House (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: It's Okay
Summary: 3 Stars
I watched this movie because it was filmed near my old house. I used to stop for breakfast at a spot that overlooks the "lake house". I was expecting it to be the stupidest movie ever, but it was actually sort of cute. Even despite it's clumsy plot, refusal to resolve conflicts created by the time travel element and painfully obvious plot twist, there were parts that were sweet and silly enough to make it palatable. Overall, I think if you go in with really low expectations you may be surprised.
Summary of The Lake House (Widescreen Edition)
A lonely doctor (Sandra Bullock) who once occupied an unusual lakeside home begins exchanging love letters with its newest resident a frustrated architect (Keanu Reeves). When they discover that they're actually living two years apart they must try to unravel the mystery behind their extraordinary romance before it's too late.Running Time: 98 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DRAMA UPC:?012569736726 Manufacturer No:?73672Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock pair up again in what could be described as the anti-Speed: The Lake House, a sweet, relaxed-paced, whimsical romance. When Alex Wyler (Reeves, The Matrix) moves into an unusual glass house on stilts over a lake, he discovers a note from the previous tenant in the mailbox--but no one's lived in the house for years. He replies and soon discovers that he's corresponding with a doctor named Kate Forster (Bullock, Miss Congeniality) who's writing from two years in the future. Their correspondence turns romantic and their paths cross in unexpected ways, but when they try to truly connect, danger looms. Though the plot of The Lake House sounds potentially static, the movie is skillfully structured and, despite some truly awful dialogue, will exert an emotional pull on anyone willing to embrace the device of the time-travelling mailbox. What the movie really demonstrates, though, is the genuine rapport between Bullock and Reeves; Reeves, though handsome, has a wooden presence--but in his few scenes with Bullock, his stiffness transforms into a palpable yearning. On-screen chemistry is slippery and hard to define, but these two have it. --Bret Fetzer
