Exquisite film

Rating: 10/10 (12 July 2004)

When going to a movie my expectations are never high. I believed that no movie could ever capture what I feel a 'REAL' movie should consist of. Well, I am officially wrong now. Not only did the Notebook meet my expectations, they exceeded them. While watching the movie I experienced so many emotions. Joy, sadness, anger; it truly tugged on my heartstrings.
The Acting was so well done, I truly believed that Rachel Mcadams (Allie) and Ryan Gosling (Noah) were a couple. The chemistry was definitely there. It was also so wonderful to see James Garner again, he is such a great actor, he makes it look so easy. And last but not least Gena Rowlands. I don't think I could have picked a better actor for her role.
Everything was breathtaking, the visuals, the score, the direction, the acting. To say in the least the whole movie was breathtaking.
Bring tissues; men and women of all ages leaving the theatre were weeping. How could just a mediocre movie do that? Well a mediocre movie didn't, an exquisite one did.
