Mandy Moore played a plain Jane well

Rating: 10/10 (31 May 2002)

I was at first hesitant when i heard Mandy Moore was playing the lead female role in this movie. Nicholas Sparks is one of my favorite authors and I remembered how great the book was and just wasnt sure about seeing Mandy as a plain Jane. When i saw the movie i was amazed. She played the role so well!! I couldnt believe how well she did, she is a girl of amazing talent and I hope she does take more roles on like this. When she sang in the movie thats when i realized Adam Shankman really did have the right girl casted for this movie. I couldnt see anyone else playing Jamie Sullivan. The movie is sad but well done and Shane plays Landon Carter well. The bad guy turned good seems to fit him well. Over all the movie was well acted and is by far my favorite book turned into movie, movie.
