I really don't understand what the critics were thinking as they wrote those reviews. The only thought that came to my mind is that they saw a different movie than I did. The movie I saw was to say in the least, beautiful. Nick Cassavettes did a truly wonderful job portraying Nicholas Spark's novel. Having read the novel, I thought they did a superb job portraying it on the big screen, I couldn't think of a better way to do it. I don't know where this movie was filmed but wherever it was, it was very beautiful, the visuals were just breathtaking. Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling were perfect for Noah and Allie, these two will become huge stars.
Some will say that the storyline is old and tired, but I definelty have to disagree. While its been done before, its never been done this way. With such depth and emotion, the predictable ending is no fault of the movie. You'll find yourself not caring, but only wishing that you might come across such a beautiful love story of your own.
Bottom line. I LOVED it. 4 out of 4 stars.
Oh and bring some kleenex. :) |
