Review of Dear John (2010) by Alessandras — 07 Feb 2010
I had been looking forward to seeing this movie for weeks (as someone who is in love with 'the notebook' and touching love stories). I will tell you that it is a tear-jerker. I heard many sobs coming from the audience (ok, maybe many of them were mine).
The adapted screenplay attempted to include different storylines in the film, as not to make it your stereotypical love story. They were semi-successful at this. The acting is quite good, especially Channing Tatum who plays a young soldier with many repressed feelings.
A couple of scenes I felt Amanda Seyfried's acting was not completely believable but still very good. What can I say, it touched a place deep in my heart, especially the secondary story of John's (Tatum) introverted, lonely father.
