not bad for a chick flick

Rating: 8/10 (21 May 2007)

I heard all about the book before I watched the movie and I had no intentions of reading it or watching the movie. But one day I just came across it on TV and I actually thought it was a fairly good movie. I normally hate chick flicks, can't stand them and have absolutely no desire to watch them. This movie on the other hand is a whole different story. It was just so cute and adorable and knowing the tragic end that was to come I just couldn't turn away.
I thought the acting was great and I actually had tears in my eyes a few times because I really bought into it. It shows every girl's dream and every girl's nightmare. These two teens were lucky enough to be a part of the few people on the earth to find true love and to have it ripped away just brings tears to your eyes. It shows how great and cruel life can be and that no matter what you can't be bitter about your fate.
Regardless of how much you hate chick flicks or the actors in it, I think its at least worth a watch.
