By first view the Lake House looks like any another typical romance movie. Lonely man meets lonely woman and their journey coming together. Yet something distinctifies itself in The Lake House. The unique storyline really sets up the whole situation, yet it's the chemistry between the actors that really moves this movie along. Yes there's talking, a lot of it. So what.
The story blossoms much like a rose, and like a rose there's many layers. Yet what twists The Lake House is the time warp factor. The ability to fall in love with someone despite the unusualness of the interaction. A love like that is something rare to find now a days and would appeal to those hopeless romantics. It's something everyone wants to have, a true meaningful relationship with no strings or boundaries. The Lake House is beyond those "coming of age" movies, but the tone fits all ages. Love is possible no matter what age, time or place.
It isn't exactly ground breaking, but definitely a winner for a first date or a good night out with your loved one. When the situations play out you feel as if you are right there with the characters and can't wait to see what happens next...
thumbs up from me.
and that's the final word.
