Childhood sweethearts Holly and Gerry could finish each other’s sentences. No-one could imagine them apart. Until, that is, the unthinkable happens and Holly is faced with the prospect of spending the rest of her life without her husband. Then, one day, a light appears at the end of the tunnel in the form of a surprise letter. Secretly, Gerry has left her a series of notes written before he died – delivered one per month – to gently guide Holly into her new life, each finishing with: P.S. I love you. Based on the international best-selling novel by Cecelia Ahern and starring Oscar®-winner Hilary Swank and an A-list supporting cast including Gerard Butler, Lisa Kudrow, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Kathy Bates and Harry Connick Jr., P.S. I Love You is a feel-good comedy that will warm your heart.

Trailer
Holly has just lost the love of her life, but she discovers10 letters written by him to help her cope, reminding her there's more to life she needs to discover.-
“P. S. I Love You” won’t win any awards; it isn’t the sort of work that flatters a critic’s taste. It’s preposterous in big and small matters (Holly complains about a Lower East Side apartment that any sane New Yorker would kill for), and there are several cringe-worthy set pieces, some involving Mr. Butler and a guitar. The film is not a beautiful object or a memorable cultural one, and yet it charms, however awkwardly. Ms. Swank’s ardent sincerity and naked emotionalism dovetail nicely with Mr. LaGravenese’s melodramatic excesses: Together the director and his star create a swell of feeling that helps blunt your reservations about being played as an easy mark, a sap or, worse, a girl, even if that’s exactly what you are.
Manohla Dargis, The New York Times -
With her huge saucer eyes and endearing overbite, Hilary Swank is the closest thing to Bambi yet to be produced by human evolution. It’s a quality she puts to good use as grief-stricken widow Holly Kennedy in this adaptation of Cecelia Ahern’s novel. After the death of her husband (Gerard Butler), Holly is shocked to find he’s left behind a staggered series of inspirational letters. Lucky for her, she’s got a sprawling, Irish- American family to lean on. Lucky for us too, because between them the supporting cast – including Lisa Kudrow, Gina Gershon and Harry Connick Jr – provide just enough humour to cut through the schmaltz. It’s not life-altering stuff, but if you’ve got a year’s supply of Kleenex to get through (or a thing for Irishmen), there are worse ways to spend an afternoon.
Total Film -
Like a Ghost for grown-ups, P.S. I Love You works because of its willingness to keep a tight reign on sentimentality and mawkish moments. While hardly charged with electricity, Swank and Butler also make for a quietly engaging couple.
