Predictable Harlequin Romance

Rating: 2/10 (26 June 2017)

A fairly boring film that will appeal to people who have no sense of history. Too many anachronisms (like Allie beginning a sentence with 'Like' which did not become a speech habit in the US until the 1970s; or Noah's hair after the war - again more '70s than late '40s or '50s). The manners and behavior are also not in keeping with the times. And Allie screaming all the time as a means of conveying 'emotions' gets grating after awhile - just want to tell her to shut up already. The characters have no depth and arouse no particular sympathy. If you're into formulaic Hallmark romances, this is the stuff for you.
