Is The Lake House a chick flick or what?

[blu reality]

I enjoyed the movie. Only saw it on DVD though so I dunno how the blu transfer is.

Ditto for me. Interesting story, execution was fair.

Pretty sad when a chick flick is not even liked by the ladies, ouch!

Could well top Gigli as the worst pos movie ever made.

I bought it for my wife & WE watched it together & both liked it & YES it has a good story line very creative with good twists. The PQ is good for a VC-1 you know & it only comes with a DD 5.1 SOOOO....

I am slightly challenged or something because I liked Gigli. Yes, there is a ton of flaws and you want to punch the main characters, but I love John Powell's score (which the movie didn't diserve) and it has kind of a light heartedness to it.

I watched it twice and enjoyed it....yes, im a male and I watched it alone both times....lol......I enjoy all movies

but I would recommend it if you enjoy a good love story....its actually suspensefull in parts....the ending acutally brought a tear to the eye, not green mile tears, but a tear nontheless.

dreadful dreadful movie. I haven't seen it in blu, just dvd, and have no desire to see it again.

if you watch this, try not to be too critical of the time travel aspects, it will be difficult.

I got this on blu for my lady not long ago, not sure I really want to sit with her and watch it after reading all this!

Horrible chick flick, Neo's acting skills are right up there with Kevin Costner. All these Chinese remakes suck, The Eye, One missed Call, Dark Water horrible remakes.

Chick Flick not a good one either.

Another dead thread. I actually remember this fondly. No. it's not the movie of the decade, or even the year or the month, but it's better than a lot of romance flicks - imho (if memory serves). It's not a "rom-com" and I would argue that the sci-fi element takes it out of the strict "chick flick" category, but YMMV.

The real reason I posted was to ask : if anyone out there has this BD and the DVD, is the BD an actual upgrade. The reviewer failed to cover that (while giving this a real low score) - and, no, BDs are not "always better", especially these early ones. I would assume that the AQ is similar to the DVD as they didn't go lossless (unless they tamped down the volume), but is there an uptick in PQ - despite the lousy rating?

Like someone had mentioned earlier, the original Korean film, Il Mare is superior. But thats American remakes for you, it's rare if they turn out to be as good. Even still I didn't think the original was all that great either though.

OMG!
ROTFLMAO!

I guess the only chick flick I will get is Chicken Little.

Lakehouse is one of the movie I brought today from the Amazon B2G1 sales, I thought it was an interesting story and my GF likes it. I also brought Good Fellow and Knight's Tale, the total came to $28.11 with my never ending 10% early adopter discount and free 2 days shipping, that's $9.37 per movie, what a deal.

BTW I do not like Lady's In The Water at all.

[Xerosaber]

i absolutely loved it. great movie, great story. i dont know why nobody else liked it. i loved it so much i traded my bluray copy of shooter for it.

I'll pass on this, I'll suffer enough when The Notebook is released on Blu.

If you can, try to watch the Korean original, titled "Il Mare," instead of "The Lake House." It's a lot better, and its stars are also much more attractive.
