Beautiful movie based on a true story

Rating: 10/10 (29 August 2017)

I'm not really a fan of love movies but I've seen this movie 5-6 times and cried my eyes out every single time. The first time I watched it my boyfriend rented it as it was recommended by one of his friends. We both cried our souls out and he is a big man, I've never seen him cry before.
Anyways, Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling did an amazing job, their chemistry in the movie is unbelievable. I was shocked when I read that they couldn't stand each other on set in real life. Watching the movie I thought they'd end up being together. I love this movie and I'd recommend it anytime.
I noticed some reviews calling the movie 'cliché' 'unrealistic' ...it's based on a true story so I'm not sure what they meant. It's sad when people don't believe in love, my grandpa passed away 2 months after my grandma died and he was a healthy man so I did not find this movie to be cliché or unrealistic at all. Someone also said it's not even about a notebook...the entire movie is about the notebook and bringing back memories from it hence I am pretty sure that a lot of people who reviewed it haven't actually watched the movie.
