Dr. Kate Forster (Sandra Bullock) is a lonely youngish woman who has just moved out of a lake house. That is, a house built on a lake - with stilts that hold it above the water. Dr. Forster leaves a note in the mailbox, asking the next occupant of the house to forward any letters that may slip through the post office. Meanwhile, Alex Wyler (Keanu Reeves) is an architect. He moves into the lake house and finds Kate's letter. Only problem is, he moved in two years before Kate did. Which means any relationship they build will be extremely long-distance.
Pros: Alex is such a gentleman! I typically like Sandra Bullock's characters, and Kate was no different (she was an idiot in some ways, but very sweet). The side characters were good. Christopher Plummer is great as Alex's dad.
Cons: Admittedly, Keanu Reeves is not a very good actor. But he's cute and Alex is sweet, so that makes up for it! The time-travel thing is cool, but very shallow.
My Rating: T (language, thematic elements)
