Great Movie

Rating: 9/10 (8 April 2010)

I've been to see this movie twice and enjoyed it immensely both times. I have not been a big fan of Miley Cyrus, but I thought this was the perfect transitional role for her. Even if her acting wasn't Oscar-worthy, it was a huge step up from her previous acting roles.
I also thought Greg Kinnear (Ronnie's Dad) did an excellent job with his character. Liam Hemsworth (Will) was pretty good in his role, too. It's nice to see a really tall actor on the screen for a change.
I didn't feel that the movie was rushed at all, but actually thought the pace was perfect and was glad the ending wasn't dragged out any more.
For those of you who don't know, the screen play for the movie was written before the book, so it seems unfair to critique the movie based on the book.
I've read the book, too, but I like the movie more. I think a bunch of the bad reviews the movie has been getting aren't fair- they are either comparing the book to the movie (which, as I said, doesn't seem right), or berating Miley Cyrus's acting skills.
But I don't care what the other reviews say. This was a great movie in my opinion. I loved it.
