“The Lake House” Movie Review
“The Lake House” Plot Summary
A lonely doctor who once occupied an unusual lakeside home begins exchanging love letters with its former resident, a frustrated architect. They must try to unravel the mystery behind their extraordinary romance before it’s too late.
I loved it
I really did not know what to expect when I went to the movies today. Ithought the premise just did not seem believable. However, the movie was so well done that you did not care. You did not care to understand how the letters in the mailbox got to Alex or Kate. It was a great romantic movie. I am a true romantic at heart and love great romances. I wondered if this story was ever a book. I love to read and think that it would make a great read. I feel in love with the characters and their stories. I can truly say that you are sitting on the edge of your seat, anticipating that moment that they will actually meet. The scene where they danced in the yard was beautiful. The music selections were a good choice. Bring along a box of Kleenexes – you may find yourself needing it to wipe the tears away. I highly recommend the movie!

An Unexpectedly Haunting & Beautiful Film . . .
There IS a quality to ‘The Lake House’ that lingers in the mind days afterward
For a film in which the element of Time is uniquely important, ‘The Lake House’ manages to convey an odd sense of universal timelessness. It as though the specific When is less relevant than the universality of human thought, feeling, and decision. An almost mystical quality.’The Lake House’ is that rare film which not only invites but welcomes a repeat viewing. The first time simply follow What happens in the story. See the film again to more fully enjoy How this story elegantly unfolds
This is NOT a time travel film. Repeat, NOT. Each character in this film experiences only his or her own natural time moving forward in the usual linear chronological way. What changes is each character’s perspective on what they are experiencing over time, and how each’s perception of their Past informs Present decisions which impact Future events
If I had to pick one theme to describe this picture: at the time they occur, we may not even recognize the most important encounters or events in our lives
Alex (Keanu Reeves) and Kate (Sandra Bullock) are two seemingly unconnected persons who have lived in the lake house of the title exactly two years apart. Through seeming accident they find that they can communicate with each other directly, in immediate personally experienced time, through the mysterious mailbox at the lake house. We then follow the often startling events each experiences and writes about to the other over the next two years of their lives, Alex from February of 2004 to 2006, Kate from February 2006 to 2008. The result is . . . an extraordinary film that both satisfies the intellect and engages on a surprisingly emotional level
Their roles here are a significant departure from usual for both Reeves and Bullock, but not to worry. Individually, this is either’s best work anywhere. Collectively, their chemistry is exceptional. Subplots in the story are developed through some superb supporting performances, most notably the two parents. Christopher Plummer is achingly brilliant as Alex’ demanding genius architect father, and Dutch actress Willeke van Ammelrooy positively oozes wit and warmth as Kate’s mother
The lake house itself . . . physically brings out so much emotional subtext in this film that it ought to be credited as a separate character. (If no artist/architect has actually built this house, they should!)Altogether, ‘The Lake House’ is one of most rewarding films of any type I have seen in many years
HIGHLY recommended.

Beautiful movie, don’t listen to the critics
I am glad to say that this is the first movie in awhile that I’m going to go to the theater and see again. I went in with no real expectations and I left feeling wonderful. Before I go further, yes this is a chick flick and its a good one. I admit here and now that I am a hopeless romantic and The Lake House is a romantic movie made in the greatest tradition. Yes it starts slow and it’s really soapy but in a great way. Don’t listen to the cynical critics, don’t go in expecting to see science fiction, a time travel movie or some deep psychological drama, just go. Just go and listen to a good script with grown up dialogue, beautiful scenery and two people who find themselves in love under the most extraordinary circumstances. The acting may not be Oscar worthy but both Keanu and Sandra play the characters with conviction. People in the theater laughed and I know they cried and at the end they clapped; which is rare for a movie these days. Husbands take your wives, wives if they won’t go grab a few girlfriends, you won’t be sorry. 8/10
