 The Sex Always Gets in the Way August 10, 2006
Sexless in Seattle
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This movie is on my top 5 list. Harry Burns' theory that men and women can never be friends because the sex always gets it the way is dead nuts accurate. Sally tries to rebut this with a hypothetical...what if the girl is unattractive? Then can you be friends? To which Harry, in the spirit of all men, replies "No, you pretty much want to nail them too." Finally, a romantic comedy with some undertones that men can appreciate. Great movie.
Evergreen, and classic July 10, 2006

In 1989, a good friend told me this film was excellent. I don't know why, but it took me 17 years to act on his good advice. In a way, I'm glad. Back then I might have simply liked the film. I'm not sure I would have recognized it for the evergreen, fresh and relevant classic that it is. Now, after one viewing, I can and do.
Following their graduation from University of Chicago in 1977, Harry Burns (Billy Crystal) is kissing his college sweetheart Amanda goodbye when Sally Allbright (Meg Ryan) pulls up in her station wagon to pick him up for the 18-hour shared drive they have arranged back to New York. On the drive, Harry tells an incredulous Sally that men and women can't be friends. Men always want to sleep with women, he says, noting that she is very attractive. When she finally drops him off at Washington Square Park at the foot of Fifth Avenue, Sally tells him to have a good life.
They meet again five years later, in an airport, where Sally as Sally, now a journalist, kisses Joe goodbye. Harry, who is traveling on the same plane with Sally, is acquainted with Joe. He's a political consultant, and newly engaged to Helen. Once again, their personalities seem to clash.
Another five years pass before Harry again spies Ally, this time in a bookstore with her friend Marie (Carry Fisher). Now, Harry is in the midst of a divorce, while Sally has split up with Joe. Over the next two years, they become the thing that Harry said men and women could never be--just friends. They try dating other people. They even try fixing one another up with their respective best friends, which brings the friends together as a couple, and leaves Harry and Sally still, just friends.
Director Rob Reiner and writer Nora Ephron created a comic masterpiece in this film, but they could not have done it without the stellar performances from Crystal, Ryan, Fisher and Bruno Kirby, who plays Harry's friend, Jess.
It's not only worth waiting for good things. Sometimes it's really nice, too.

When Harry Met Sally.... One of the best Romantic Comedies ever ! July 5, 2006

Watching Rob Reiners movies is almost always a great pleasure. He just gets to the point, without overkilling. He hits the nerve softly. He has the touch of telling the perfect joke. He tells stories that make you believe that you are in them. A true master in his craft. When Harry Met Sally is definitely one of his best. It's a film that does not get older. It stays fresh. It's a classic. Something that has to be seen, over and over again.

I just rewatched this film and am amazed at how timeless it is - except for the clothing - of course ;) This film makes you laugh and shows the great dance of romance of a couple trying to find that ever elusive perfect timing. Another great film for girls' night :)
