Summary: i totally disagree
Review: the movie a walk to remember tells a story of true love and my review clearly states agains mako4509g1g23's opinion. this message is mainly for him. for those of you who have seen the movie and thought it was good but different you are my supporters the movie although is much different than the book (which i did like better) but i still love the movie. mako4509g1g23 doesn't understand or he would of thouhgt it was traggic like most of nicholas Sparks stories.and of course many people know that movies based on the novel is going to be different than the original story. take harry potter for example; it was differnt in other ways than the book. and so is a walk to remember.
i believe that if your going to be a critic than see if you can do it better and if you just think that it could of been better than i have one question ,can you write? (other than critisize?) and just to let you know the author of the novel is a guy and you'd think he'd know if it was a chick flick and do you think that the director directed just for kicks?
many people love, love stories espessicailly the ones by Nicholas Sparks
if you are a fan of the movie or of nicholas sparks go to ...or ...

Summary: da real deal
Review: Mandy's acting? went from bad to good. She paid excess attention to whoever she was talkin to, whatever she did. Which seemed fake, but i can be denied by the fact that i dunno a girl thats supposed to be as pure and kind as her. Shane west, good actin throughout. He has sharp eyebrows which made him seem mean at times, but it's minor. Supportin cast did a good job.

Small bits-wise, umm, there were a couple of little things worth laughin your butt off for. Things i believed they coulda done without. Story-wise, extremely different from book. Yes, and some other reviewer said they coulda used more relationship developin like the book. Well, he's right cause in the book, reading how landon/jamie grew together was really good. But he's also ignorant of film-makin, because u can't film that. Nobody can sit through it. Movie was more based on a cliche plot, but it gives viewers a sense of comfort. Something u know already.

I respect roger ebert over most critics, so he said it was good. And i believe him. lord of the rings has a 4.5 avg review at amazon.com. This movie's got 5, figured its something to think bout.

Summary: a great movie!!!
Review: although this movie didn't get great ratings...it sure did on my list of movies!!! this is the perfect movie of tragic but also happy love. I went to see it the day that it came out because i am a huge mandy moore fan. (and shane west isn't that bad either...he is soooo hott-and a good actor) If you are the kind of person that enjoys a teenage love story without drugs, sex etc. I have seen tons of teenage movies with the base of a love story but all the movies involve sex or violence. This is just a total change and it makes it my favorite movie!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Love This Movie!!
Review: I saw this in the theatres & it was different from what I expected. I had never read the book before or even heard of the book before this movie, but I was a Mandy Moore fan. I was curious to see this and I loved it. It wasn't really a girl movie like I asssumed. A Walk to Remember is very sweet and touching and has a great story line to it. Mandy Moore is great in this movie. This is a movie worth buying and watching over and over again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ThE BeSt EvEr
Review: This movie is truly worth 5 stars. I will give mako4509g1g23 credit that the book and the movie was somewhat diffrent but in the movie it had great parts that the book didnt. Like when landon gives jaime all of her wishes (like being in two places at one time). That is a great part that wasnt in the book. And i just want to give Nicholas Sparks some credit that man can make a girl cry (which isn't that hard) but he can make the tears flow down on men too. When i saw this movie i bet there were more men than woman crying. But this movie is recomended for everyone and it is a trly 5 star movie

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best movies EVER!
Review: I was deaply moved by this awsome movie. The way Mandy Moore and Shane West played their charecters you could almost see the love between them. By just seeing this movie ounce you could tell how in love Landon was with Jamie. I have always gotten teary in movies but this movie made me cry like a baby, same with the rest of my friends. If you havn't seen it yet see it as soon as possible. You will love it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: jus a few bits
Review: saw an interview with shane west, and he said this, "this screenplay attracted me because it was a nice sweet story about teens falling in love. But the key factor was that the girl did not make some kind of a dramatic make-over at the end and became this amazingly beautiful girl that no one saw at the beginnin of the movie."

Very wise words, and I realized after hearin such, that that's also why I enjoyed the movie. It kept it real like that.

But I watched the movie 5 times, sounds excessive but im a big mandy fan. And i too did not believe initially tha she could handle a lead role. I figured she'd kill the movie, i just wanted to watch her in a movie. but after my first time i was wow'ed. She looked amazing natural, her chemistry with Shane was fantastic, and the story was a lifetime in 2 hrs. Took care of every inch, and left no holes which fulfilled my curiosity of the two main character's lives. Some stuff cheesy? sure...but it's heavily outweighed.

One scene that'll never leave my head. I never knew Shane West before this movie, but i sure will after this actin bit. When he and his father met together the 3rd time. Omg. I started thinkin bout my own father, and as a man, i'll admit i teared. It was very powerful...and ain't no real man gonna say they dun treasure love from his father. I recommend it, and after i send this review, ima buy it on DvD, hehe.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Well, it's ok I guess....
Review: I have to begin by noting that this movie/dvd has already garnered a 5-star rating and over 300 reviews, which isn't bad for prerelease.

My personal story is that I made an agreement with this girl: that I would watch this chick flick if she would step in a puddle. She obviously had the advantage, and I suppose I intended to lose. Besides, she'd already bewitched me into reading the book, which wasn't too bad by itself.

But the movie...it differed so much from the book, and in bad ways. Landon (the guy) starts out as a very bad character, so it was incredibly unrealistic for him to fall in love with the highly religious Jamie (the girl). The whole first part of the movie is wasted in my opinion. The intention must have been to establish Landon's character, but so much more could have been shown of Landon's and Jamie's developing relationship. In the book, there's the school play and the orphanage that play important roles. In the movie, there's only the play, and it's lost its religious significance that was so important in the book.

The movie also wastes some very good "lines." In the book, Landon asks Jamie for help with his lines (in the school play). In the movie it's something totally different and Jamie's "only if you promise not to fall in love with me" makes no sense at all. If anything, I would recommend this movie for the "pure", "wholesome" love story, and the cute things that happen.

The saving grace of this movie is the cuteness of it, after Landon and Jamie get together. Before that, it's horrible, and after...well, I won't spoil it. They do some very cute things together, so guys, get some ideas from this movie.

If you can look past the bad acting, the bad scriptwriting, and the general chick-flick-ness of it all, it's an OK movie. It may be worth your time. Add it to your summer movie list, if you have one, and try to look past the faults.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Movie of all time
Review: To sum the movie up in one word---TERRIFIC. This movie definitely deserves 5 stars. Mandy Moore was absolutely terrific, and so was Shane West. It looked like they had great chemistry on screen. This movie is my number one favorite

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: GREAT MOVIE! (guys might not like it)
Review: This movie is a great one. If you have read the book, it's not as much like it as you think it is. Tons of different things happen. I personally think the movie is better. Be prepared to cry!
