Summary: A Truly Heartwarming Love Story
Comment: The Notebook was all I had hoped it would be and more. My friend recommended this movie a long time ago. I finally decided to buy the DVD and watch it. The story kept moving from beginning to end. There were a few twists, turns, and surprises. Two heartwarming stories all wrapped up in one.

This is a great movie to sit down with just you and your box of tissues, a friend, or the love of your life. It's not just a chick flick. The Notebook has a great story line, lovable characters, and a couple characters you love to hate. I highly recommend The Notebook for a quiet movie night at home. I'm glad I finally took my friend's advice and watched it. You will be too.

Summary: One of the best love stories of all time, period.
Comment: I watched this movie again on cable for the umpteenth time recently, and I just have to comment on the one editorial review by Bruce Diones of The New Yorker:

He says "the film is as bland and sentimental as a greeting card."

Mr. Diones clearly is not in possession of a beating heart in his chest. If he has been so lucky as to have a woman love him, I feel sorry for her. And if that sounds harsh, then so be it.

This film delivers on so many levels. It is obviously an incredibly romantic story - as others have noted, the chemistry between Gosling and McAdams was fabulous (and of course we found out subsequently was the makings of a real-life romance), but pay attention to the cinematography, the editing, the soundtrack... All magnificently well done. Some of the scenes are absolutely visually stunning, such as the sunsets, and when Noah takes Alli on the lake and all of the white ducks are swimming around them.

The only scene that I find hard to take - and which might have been overdone a bit - is towards the end when Noah and Alli are dancing in one of her lucid periods and she lapses back into dementia and doesn't recognize him again. It is painful to watch and I thought that they could have made the characters be not so intensely emotional and still been effective.

Other than that one minor criticism, it is a film that is truly a love story for the ages, and one that I will continue to watch again and again as the years go by; and if I am lucky, with someone I love.

Summary: The most beautiful love story ever......
Comment: I don't know why I missed it at the theater, but a friend gave it to me to watch one evening. My 14 yr old daughter watched it with me and we both cried all through the movie - not because it was sad, but because it was so beautiful. The kind of love this movie portrayed is the kind of love we are all searching for. This movie is for everyone who believes true love really exists. This is the kind of love worth waiting for!

Behind every great love is a great story. Two teenagers from opposite sides of the tracks fall in love during one summer together, but are tragically forced apart. When they reunite 7 years later, their passionate romance is rekindled, forcing one of them to choose between true love and class order.
