Nicholas Sparks is a tearjerker maestro.
Up until now, 6 of his books have been adapted into films starring Diane Lane, Richard Gere (hot!), Ryan Gosling (Hercules hot!), Anson something and that girl that used to be 90’s teeny bopper songstress. This year alone two of his books – turned – films got released starring Miley Cyrus (yikes) / Liam Hemsworth (Adonis Hot) and Channing Tatum (Abercrombie Burner) / Amanda Seyfried (Angelic Beauty) and I watched both of them in a span of two weeks. It is really hard for these two films to surpassed the high benchmark set by The Notebook, I guess the most successful adaptation of Nicholas Sparks’ book (a cult favourite too).
It is very hard to talk about The Notebook – a real tearjerker, without having those images of faith and love lost – love found flashing through your head. My significant other absolutely loves this movie.
Dear John is the better than The Last Song. I just can’t get around the fact that Miley Cyrus has a horridly big front tooth and detached performance by Greg Kinnear. The boy that played the younger brother clearly was the bigger (and better) actor and that is the only redeeming thing about the movie.
I’ve read Dear John before the film got released. I was a little bit unhappy about the story line because the film downplayed two central themes which are autism and war. The theatre – released ending also was done to appease the theatre – going masses, which is fine by me.
Go on and watch The Notebook, everybody needs a good cry now and then!
