I soaked my popcorn with tears

Rating: 10/10 (31 May 2005)

I consider myself a fairly rough critic. Many elements plays into affect as to whether or not I care for a film. I'm biased toward no particular type but when given a choice I prefer drama any day. The notebook is 2004's winner in my book for the best dramatic romance. I am so glad my sorority sister brought the movie home and asked me to watch it. She cried and I balled my eyes out. Why someone wrote such a bad briefing on the back of the DVD, I don't know. I would have never watched it had I not been asked and boy am I thankful. May I just say that the scene on the dock (on the DVD cover)without a doubt is the most remarkably heart wrenching part of movie and is incomparable to any other dramatic scene played before. Forget 10. This movie is off the scale.
