Walk to Remember

Pros: Chemistry between Shane West and Mandy Moore.
Cons: Will be liked by a narrow audience - like me and other die hard romantics.

Preamble
Oh no! I came to this category to review this film and I couldn't believe that three men had reviewed it and zero women had reviewed it. And of course, the men had no appreciation for it. Of course! Like this...

Pros: acting, pace of film, good story
Cons: bay be too sappy to some

I don’t know how this movie ended up in my Netflix queue.  I’m neither a Mandy Moore fan nor someone who particularly enjoys romantic, sappy chick-flicks.  But there it was one day in my mailbox.A Walk to ...

Pros: laudable heroine, touching story
Cons: corny moments

The first time I heard of Nicholas Sparks was when my mom read The Notebook. Someone had lent her the book, and she loved it so much that she immediately entreated my dad and me to read it as well. It was this sort of word-of-mouth momentum that ...

Pros: Intimacy without props.
Cons: The ending was a bit formulaic.

Every now and then Hollywood throws something different your way in the medium of a teenage flick. A Walk To Remember is such a movie. The movie is directed by Adam Shankman, who choreographed Scream 2, and that in itself made the caution...

Pros: Beautiful story
Cons: Sad

My kids had been telling me that I needed to watch A Walk to Remember for several weeks. Finally I ordered it from Netflix, and a few weeks ago I sat down to watch it with my daughters.

My true first impression as the movie...

Pros: A great date movie, get out the tissues
Cons: none

I rarely know anything about a movie before I go to see it. My husband gets most of his ideas from Ebert and Roeper. This is one movie I am glad I saw.

The movie starts out with a bunch of kids hanging around a cement levee late at night....

Pros: Great chemistry between the leads, good story, West is a phenomenal actor.
Cons: Might be too sappy for some. 

I came to the realization that somehow in the last couple of years I’ve become a sentimental sap. I say this affectionately of course. Maybe it’s really been that way all along because I avoid tearjerker films like the plague. It feels almost ...

Pros: Believable chemistry, super acting, good plot
Cons: Crying in public, a small portion of plot seemed to be glossed over

I have a few tips if you plan to see this movie (Disclaimer: These tips apply mainly to women. Sorry guys). First, make sure your mascara is waterproof. It seems that Estee Lauder’s More Than Mascara becomes no more than a liquefied mess of black smudges...

Pros: It's superb. Mandy Moore is a great, promising actress
Cons: none, none whatsoever

Ok, I'm not going to mock you with another lengthy review. Besides, this movie is so small.. ...

Pros: Teen girls will love it.
Cons: Everyone else will loathe it.

Teenage guys beware: if you plan on taking your girlfriend to the movies to see the Gen-Y weeper A Walk to Remember in some not-so-subtle attempt to prove your sensitive side, I have three words: DON'T DO IT. Whatever temporary benefits you may...

Pros: Mandy Moore and Shane West. Good music. A good love story w/o any flesh flashing.
Cons: Keep you crying.

Last night, I took my wife out on a date for her birthday. Since it's rare for us to get out to the movies with a 19-month old, we took the opportunity to see a flick we had been wanting to see, A Walk to Remember. The previews made it look like a...

Pros: An amazing story, the lead roles were very believable.
Cons: Nothing, absolutely flawless... although it will have you running for the kleenex.

I wanted to write a review with a lot of details, but decided not to spoil it for those who have yet to see it. My apologies to those who track my reviews, hope I didn't disappoint you. Once in a while, I will come across a movie that is a must ...

Pros: Its a great movie.
Cons: The editing could have been a little better

The Story

A Walk to Remember follows the story of two teenagers in their last year of high school who are poles apart. Through their hard journey they learn about life and discover the meaning of true love.

In the small town of...

Pros: Acting, soundtrack, location, doesn't drag on.
Cons: Supporting actors not developed enough.

Compared to other movies I've seen, this movie left me feeling such a myriad of emotions that it is now my favorite movie. I cannot remember feeling the way I felt after watching this film. Others who have reviewed this film mention the tear-factor and...

Pros: Great Preformances by Moore and West, Touching Story of True Love, not lust
Cons: A few jokes I could have done without.

Even though I had seen Shane West in "Once and Again", and thought him to be a great actor, I had no desire to see this movie, at first that is. On first impressions of seeing the trailers for this movie on TV, I figured it was a typical teen movie,...
