You've Got Mail~Review~

I didn't make a review about movies for a long time, and I just saw this picture on my pinterest board again and thought, why not make a review about You've Got Mail? It's funny, and still nice. A romantic comedy. Here's a bit of the story-line.

Joe Fox and Kathleen Kelly, two business rivals, have an online romance. They can't see eachother, but just communicate per mail. They are business rivals and at day they fight with words. In the evening, they talk with eachother about their life and their problems, not knowing that they actually are business rivals. Kathleen Kelly owns the ''Shop Around The Corner'', and Joe Fox owns ''Fox Books''. That was about all of the plot. It really has a good, and funny story.

The characters are really really good too. Meg Ryan plays a nice, but still sharp Kathleen Kelly. And Tom Hanks plays Joe Fox perfectly. It's really a good movie.
Kathleen Kelly is the owner of ''The Shop Around The Corner''. She has a friend, Frank Navasky, who is newspaper writer for ''The New York Observer''. At day, she works in her bookshop and does normal things, in the evenings she opens her laptop, and hears three words: 'You've Got Mail'. She has mail from so named NY152. She herself writes on internet under the name Shopgirl. (NY152 is Joe Fox) They talk about normal things in life, and then Joe Fox comes, with his large bookshop ''Fox Books''. Kathleen and Joe argue with eachother. Kathleen sees that Joe Fox' shop has friendly employees, but without the same dedication to children's books as her friends in the bookshop do. Her employees are also friends, you know. Birdie, Christina and George.
As I said already, it is really a very good movie. And if you didn't watch it, you should definitely try it. It's really enjoyable!
Last picture: the argue in the restaurant. Joe asked Kathleen on internet to meet him in the restaurant, but when he sees it is Kathleen from The Shop Around The Corner, he doesn't want to meet her anymore. He does, but doesn't reveal that he is NY152, who would actually meet Kathleen.
