I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Probably after Titanic the movie most adored by young girls- just a guess but I am probably correct. It is melodramatic, sentimental and even cliched but Gosling and McAdam's (who were an item whilst filming) are too good actors to let all that become obvious.

Don't waste one minute of your life on this!! Ryan Gosling is a crap actor, and a gooney dude anyway..

The most beautiful romance movie I've ever seen. The chemistry between the couple is very shocking. I love to review it and tell all my friends.

Who in the world doesn't know about the classic romance film, The Notebook. The movie is based off the very popular Nicolas Sparks novel. The cast includes A list actors and actresses: Gena Rowlands, James Garner, Rachel McAdams, Ryan Gosling, and Joan Allen. The performances by every actor is very skilled and spot on. I loved the chemistry between both Garner and Rowlands and between Gosling and McAdams. Their on screen love really does win the viewer over. The movie brings you into their story and all the complexities of it and makes you care about what happens to them in the end. We see the two fall in love when they're younger and we see them go through many ups and downs, then we see them years later when they're older, and your attention never strays. Not once. You don't lose interest because the actors and the writing is so well done. Nothing is boring or dull. If you like tasteful sweet sometimes steamy romance stories, then I definitely recommend The Notebook (2004). 8/10!
