...a consistently watchable romantic comedy that's certainly a far cry from its underwhelming brethren...

Shmoopy or not, the movie worked for me.

Lisa Kudrow, the designated comic relief, has never been so consistently unfunny, and Gina Gershon looks uncomfortable in every (pseudo-)inspirational moment.

Hilary Swank may have two Oscars, but P.S. I Love You proves she has plenty to learn about romantic comedies.

Richard LaGravense's P.S. I Love You has plenty of sappy love-letter moments, but it's also a very touching and real-feeling look at the grieving process.

You get the strong impression that no one involved wanted to risk being labeled "depressing," so they inserted a lot of lame comic moments into a film that doesn't need them.

May be too womanly for a guy like me, but you don't have to be either sex to know all potential is dashed in a hail of clichés...

Swank gets it just right with a fine-tuned subtle expression of confusion, despondency and rage.

...the filmmakers mean well, but instead of a celebration of life, the whole thing seems like an extended wake.

It was Irish overkill. There didn't seem to be a chronological plan with the letters, so poor Holly is just forced to sit and wait to hear from her dead husband.

Talk about uneven. 'P.S. I Love You' is more uneven than an emery board, and every bit as grating when it misses its mark, which is more often than not.

For all his plain-speaking, down-homey affect, Harry Connick, Jr. remains something of a mystery.

Romantic comedy is too tragic for all-out laughs.

It could have been better, but it’s good enough to be a solid girls’ night out flick.

P.S. I Love You runs 126 minutes, and that extra half-hour bloats the material into an ugly mishmash in which the attempts at comedy are excruciating and the drama gets diluted by needless set-pieces.

Little more than a cryfest for those looking to release their own emotions, rather than experience anything new.
