The movie was excellent!!!

Rating: 9/10 (4 April 2010)

I read a lot of negative reviews on The Last Song on IMDb before going to see it in theaters today and I have to admit that I was a little skeptical on how Miley Cyrus would be without her Hannah Montana persona to lean on, but her performance in this movie is sensational and portrays the life of a teenager changing into a young woman when she is forced to grow up quickly and without warning. The performances of nearly every actor in this movie was great and the actor who played Jonah was excellent! The screenplay for the movie was created before Nicholas Sparks even wrote the novel which is why the movie contains some differences than the book, and even without some key parts of the novel the movie was still entertaining and great to watch. The performance of Miley Cyrus was awesome, she played the role of Ronnie exactly how I imagined the character; edgy and mean layering her exterior, but having a soft heart which she shows with the grace of a promising actress. Her costars Liam Hemsworth and Greg Kinnear are equally as charming and great on the screen, completing a great film. If you are looking for a great love story that can make you laugh and cry along with the characters in the movie then this is definitely a worthy watch!
