One of the WORST Movies I've Ever Seen!

Rating: 1/10 (27 March 2006)

It cannot be denied, The Notebook is one of the most successful movies of the modern era. When people list off their favourite movies, The Notebook finds its place somewhere between 1st place and 3rd. My opinion, The Notebook is one of the most boring, corny and overrated movies of all time!
When I first saw this movie on DVD, I had a different ending to others where the old people don't die in the end. People say this is the reason why I don't like the movie. I reply with "So you only like the movie because the two old people die in the end?" That's like saying that Jack dying at the end of Titanic is greater than the movie itself, which is a load of absolute cr*p.
The story is dull and boring and repetitive and takes bits and pieces from all different love stories and throws them together to create 2 hours of a nauseating love story. The two main characters have no chemistry what-so-ever...and for all you people who gasped when you found out that the old couple was actually Noah and Rachel McAdams (can't even remember the characters name it was so boring) .. if you were actually paying attention to the movie you would have realized it was obvious not even halfway into the movie instead of "awwing" over the characters like a child going gooey over a fluffy bunny.
The fact that this movie has turned into a "Notebook" religion is horrible. -I loved it! -Its soo sweet. -Its so sad.
When my friend Cait and I switched it on and expected to be sobbing our hearts out by the last act, we were mortified to find that this praised movie was nothing than your usual chick flick that usually just scraps the line of your average telemovie.
The movie is a joke. I have to stifle laughter when I see trailers for the movie because it is simply a chick flick with a twist ... a longer duration.
Please watch this movie and don't sheep it, sit there and ACTUALLY watch it! Block out the praising and see it for itself ... its nothing special, its not sweet, its not romantic... there is NOTHING memorable about this movie but somewhat everyone seems to go ga-ga over the very title.
Notebook schmotebook, if i'm ever made to watch this movie again I will personally place a gun to my head and shoot myself and die with a satisfied smile on my face just as the opening credits start to roll.
