GREAT Movie !

Rating: 10/10 (29 January 2002)

One of the BEST movies I've ever seen ! Hollywood needs more inspirational movies like this one with innocent love, values, a good clean movie. Mandy Moore portrays the character of Jamie Sullivan to perfection and believability with a goodness and purity that moves you to tears time and time again. She is a courageous, unselfish, giving, totally non-prejudicial, forgiving, loving wonderful person. Jamie thru devoting her time to unselfishly helping another person, suddenly finds herself in love, when she DOES have a Delightful effect on the young man and changes his life for the BETTER forever. A wonderful love story with many lessons that we can ALL learn. A great Date movie, or for the family, or just 2 friends, a church group, or even alone. But, bring some tissue/kleenex, you will need it, more than once. I didn't know who Mandy Moore was when I went to see this movie the FIRST time, but now I definitely do, and as Shane West's character Landon say, "He can never forget her, or the image of her walking towards him (in the wedding)" Jamie is SO SWEET and giving, you will never forget her. Jamie's character is also religiously inspiring, a real ROLE MODEL for us ALL ! She is the kind of Role Model we need, NOT sports figures (all they do is make lots of money) This girl has VALUES and Character ! I will definitely have to buy this one on DVD and Video and add it to my collection! Don't miss this movie ! !
