Chick Flick Tuesday: Just Like Heaven

Posted By Leah on August 24th, 2010

Chick Flick Tuesday highlights the best chick flicks in the movie world as well as bringing you news on upcoming chick flick releases as well as letting you all know about which chick lit books are being made into chick flick movies!

I am a huge Reese Witherspoon fan; after seeing Legally Blonde, I’ve tried to see every other film she’s starred in. One of my favourite movies of hers (of many) is the fantastic Just Like Heaven. It’s a bit of a magical romantic comedy (a bit like watching a Cecelia Ahern novel) and both Reese and Mark [Ruffalo] are fantastic in their roles and they have pretty good chemistry together too. It always makes me smile when I watch the film and it’s definitely one for the romantics out there!

Shortly after David Abbott (Mark Ruffalo) moves into his new San Francisco digs, he has an unwelcome visitor on his hands: winsome Elizabeth Martinson (Reese Witherspoon), who asserts that the apartment is hers — and promptly vanishes. When she starts appearing and disappearing at will, David thinks she’s a ghost, while Elizabeth is convinced she’s alive. Their quest for the truth ultimately leads to love in this spectral romantic comedy.

I’ve been trying to remember the name of this film for about a week, so I was amazed when you just mentioned it. I saw it quite a few years back, but I still remember it because I enjoyed it so much.

Oh, I ADORE this movie. Reese Witherspoon is excellent, and Mark Ruffalo is beyond cute in this. The scene in the restaurant had me collapsing in a fit of laughter. Such a sweet, feel good film!

It was a pretty cute movie. Had a Sophie Kinsella novel feel to it, if that makes any sense. I adore Mark Ruffalo and Reese is a great actress. The combo of the two is a lot of fun to watch.

This is one of my absolute favorites! I have it on my Pod & watch it whenever I need to believe in love again. So, quite often!
