Movie Review: The Notebook


Title: The Notebook
Genre: Romance/Drama
Starring: Rachel McAdams, Ryan Gosling
Rating: PG-13
I give this movie ten out of ten stars

An old man comes to read to an old woman in a nursing home. She doesn't know him but agrees to let him read to her and they spend a few days together while he reads his story to her.

Seventeen year olds Noah Calhoun and Allie Hamilton meet one summer and they fall madly in love. But Allie's parents have high expectations for a suitor and Noah doesn't even come close to qualifying. He's the poor kid working at the lumber mill and her family is wealthy and upper class. When the summer ends, Allie goes off to New York to go to college and it doesnt go over well with Noah.

Several years later they meet again but are confused about whether or not they still have feelings for each other. And Allie is engaged which causes a lot more problems.

Its short, I know... I just dont want to give anything away. :)
This was a really good movie with really good actors -- including James Marsden.

I love him. ^_^ He's like... the next Leonardo DiCaprio with better acting skills.
But yeah, they said this movie was sad and I was in the mood for a sad movie so I put it in. And I didnt think it was too sad until like the last twenty minutes. I cried like a baby.
And then I was all sad and shaky for the next hour but other than that it was a great movie. :)

Its probably more of a girly movie. Lots of emotional drama involved, but I definitely reccomend it if you're looking for something sad. x3
