Serendipity (2001)
10/10
Ultra cheezy, highly unrealistic, but highly enjoyable.
21 January 2004
I actually stumbled on this movie after discussions with friends about Kate Beckinsale in Underworld. Talk about two movies on the opposite end of the spectrum. I absolutely enjoyed Underworld and Kate Beckinsale. I wanted to see what other movies she had a large role in and Serendipity was brought up. I knew that this was a romantic type of movie which was totally different from her cold and fierce persona as Selene in Underworld but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Although I was reminded of Sleepless in Seattle through parts of the movie, it had enough differences to make it unique. They put just enough obstacles to make the movie interesting and not overly frustrating. I mean how many close calls can you have before finally running into each other again? They kept me hanging long enough before I could breathe a sigh of relief. Call me a hopeless romantic but I believe something like this is possible. This is definitely a keeper in the pop-romantic-flick movie bin.
