Amazon.co.uk Review
Based on the best-selling novel from Cecelia Ahern, P.S. I Love You is far more than the standard chick flick that it may first appear to be. Relocating the novel from Ireland to America, multiple Oscar-winner Hilary Swank stars as the young woman who has recently lost her husband. And yet amidst her grief, she discovers a series of letters that he's written to help. These letters give her certain things she has to do, to help her move on with her life.

It's not a completely clean adaptation of the book, and yet P.S. I Love You has more than enough in its tank to qualify as a good, quality bona fide weepy. Swank in particular is a terrific actress, and delivers another worthy performance here. Credit too to Gerard Butler (Phantom Of The Opera, 300) for his work as her late husband.

The film does have a few problems. It meanders a little, and its running time could use a little pruning. Yet nonetheless P.S. I Love You is a well made, engaging drama, and likely to be responsible for a fair bit of blubbing among its target audience by the time the credits roll. Worth a look. --Jon Foster

Customer Reviews

Good but not as good as the book
I love all of Cecelia Aherne's books and as soon as I heard they had started filming P.S. I Love You I was counting down the days until I could see it but after watching trailers and reading the film's synopsis on the internet I was concerned that it seemed to have strayed quite far from the book. On seeing the film my concerns were realised. Its barely recognisable as the same plot! I know films are never the same as the books they are based on bit this one certainly takes artistic licence to a whole new level!!

Having said that the film is still excellent in its own right, you just need to forget about it being based on the book whilst you watch it. The acting is good although some of the Irish accents were a little dubious, is it too much to ask to hire Irish actors for Irish parts?!

I will definately be buying it as it is an excellent chick flick and I would recommend anyone else buy it but just don't expect it to be anything like the book.

ANYONE WHO DID NOT LIKE THIS MOVIE CLEARLY DOES NOT KNOW WHAT LOVE IS!!!!
Clearly anyone who has given this movie a 1 star has never lost anyone close to them or EVER experienced true love. It is an amazing, sad and beautiful movie about a love that was shared between two and continued to last long after he died. By far one of the best movies i have seen in ages. I have never read the book but i certainly will be going out and buying it. For me this movie was an amazing story of such a strong love that even in death he helped her move on. If you want to see a movie that will make you stop and think about your life and love, then this is the movie for you.

Absolutely Horrendous
This is hands down the worst film I've ever seen. Unfortunately there was no option to give it zero stars. The film drags on and on. There's every Irish cliche possible. Hilary Swank is nauseating and the acting on the whole is awful. The screenplay may be reponsible for this as that too is nonsensical but predictable at the same time, and the plot goes nowhere. If you have the time to waste on god knows how long this drivel went on for, good luck. I for one would gladly put this whole experience to the furthest back part of my memory. Of course, someone else will say they loved it.
