When a young American girl, Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), travels to the city of Verona, Italy (home of the star-crossed lover Juliet Capulet of Romeo and Juliet fame) she finds an unanswered “letter to Juliet” – one of thousands of missives left at the fictional lover’s Verona courtyard.

The Review

Most of the time I’ve to be dragged to a chick-flick, but I wouldn’t mind sitting through to this one again.

“Letters to Juliet” is a sweet rom-com with a family theme to it, and it retold the story of how true love can never die.

I love how the film never oversteps it boundaries and tries not to be being anything else.

The lighting was always bright, and there were never much of a depressing scene.

You might think it’s all ‘Happy Days’ moment always, but it does has its serious moments.

A light-hearted entertainment, excellent choice for you and your partner to enjoy.

The Good

• Excellent choice of pop songs
• Stereotype but endearing characters

The Bad

• Predictable plot
