Definitely memorable!

Rating: 10/10 (27 January 2002)

This movie has been bashed because of its sentimentality, which I think is unfair. Yes, this movie has a heart, but it is not too sappy. I found it touching and very well done, and I gather that was the general consensus as the entire theater erupted into applause in the end. I thought the parts were well acted and the characters were developed, along with a beautiful plot. The music is an extra adornment that adds to the mood. Mandy Moore did surprisingly well, considering that she is a pop star-turned-actress. (Not that I'm prejudiced at all.) I would definitely see this film again, and recommend it to friends.
