A Glimpse of the "Fairytale" Movie World we Live in

Rating: 2/10 (1 October 2007)

The Notebook is a simple example of Hollywood tying to make life out to be all happy, simple and like a fairytale. I had to sit through this movie, and boy was it boring. It dragged on and on and on. It had a very stupid script, with corny and idiotic lines from poems that are trying to make this movie memorable. Well let me tell you its only memorable for the lack of quality in this movie. The only good thing about this are the special effects (such as the boat scene at the start), which is why i gave it 2/10 instead of 1/10. The reason this movie is so bad is because it is using a story that has already been beat to death in the movie industry - the happy ending love story. Also the stupid idea of the old lady (who ends up being the female main character just older) magically regaining her memory temporarily, despite the fact she has dementia! Wow, what a miracle! All in all i give this boring, predictable and unoriginal movie 2/10 simply on the fact that the acting is average and the camera work and special effects are passable.
