Sophie, an aspiring journalist accompanies her boyfriend Victor (Gael Gabriel Bernal), a workaholic chef to Verona, Italy. While he gathers the finishing touches he needs to open up his restaurant in New York, she wanders around the countryside where she stumbles across the famous "Juliet wall" and discovers the charming custom of lovelorn women writing letters to four women who call themselves "Juliet" about their lost loves. Sophie takes the job as the fifth and youngest Juliet, and finds a letter dated back from 50 years ago pushed inside the wall that has never been answered. Sophie decides to answer it, and writes a letter back to Claire who is now a grandma.

"Letters" is so cookie cutter and predictable

The story line to this movie, is very cute, and very girly. With that being said, it is very cookie cutter and the outcome fairly predictable. I like a good love story, but I felt like I had watched this story unfold before my eyes on the big screen more than one time. It's not a very unique story line. Seyfried does have a certain sweetness and charm, which to me is why the movie wasn't a flop. It is definitely a chick flick and not one to make your boyfriend or husband sit down and watch. This movie isn't one that I would necessarily want to watch again, however, it wasn't so terrible that I wouldn't watch it with a girlfriend again if she wanted to see it. Bottom Line: It's cute, It's charming, but the ending is totally predictable. It's hard to really engage in the movie because of …

I just couldn't get past the fact that she's basically cheating on her fiance. Oh and the guy she supposed to be falling for has all the charm of a bump on a log. He's a jerk to her and then all of a sudden we're supposed to believe that she's fallen for him. NO! And he not even as cute as her fiance. Now her fiance has a Spanish accent (Spanish accents way more sexy than English). He's a chef who cooks yummy things for her and took her to Italy. Where is the choice?
Oh and she gets all annoyed at the fiance cause he's working with his suppliers for a restaurant he's opening back in New York. I'm sorry, but he's working get over it.
Basically this movie is telling you to go with the Anglo (Nazi poster boy) aristocrat over the Mediterranean swarthy working class guy that you're …

Who's the star,,Seyfried or Italy?

“Letters To Juliet” is an easy to watch film, yet unlike many other romance films this year, does manage to bring a tear to your eye. It can be argued who the true star of “Letters To Juliet” is. Is it Amanda Seyfried or the Italian countryside? Definitely a girl’s film with a ton of predictability and cliché’s, but still entertaining and sweet all the same. Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) is a would-be writer who travels to Verona, Italy for a romantic getaway with her fiancé, Victor (Gael Garcia Bernal). However, the trip soon becomes a working holiday for Victor and Sophie finds herself having to experience Verona on her own. On a visit to Juliet’s balcony, she meets up with a group of women who respond to the letters that women in love leave asking Juliet for her advice. …
