Rating: 10/10 (6 July 2004)

"The Notebook" is an excellent movie. It's the best film I've seen in a long time. The acting is superb, and it had my attention throughout the entire showing. The movie's so refreshing because it's very rare to see such a pure, deep, touching, and beautiful love story in Hollywood anymore. This beautiful movie illustrates, plain and simply, soulmates. Ryan Gosling (Noah) and Rachel McAdams (Allie) were the perfect actors for their parts. They had a lot of chemistry, which is necessary in this type of story. I was very impressed by everyone's acting in the movie. James Garner and Gena Rowlands gave very realistic portrayals of older Noah and Allie. I think that the main theme of "The Notebook" is that love can be and is everlasting.
