Great Film overall
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
I love this movie! It is very emotional and sad I cried most of the time when I watched it for the first time and I think that this movie definitely worth your time!
I must say the movie is not as I expected. I'm not saying that it's bad, it's just very different from the novel. There are so many things the screenwriter changed and it kinda makes me sad. When you read the novel, you can feel the ups and downs of Holly's emotional. It tells you more about the pain and the grief she went through after Gerry's gone, and how she handled her own feelings as an ordinary woman who just lost her long-loved husband. I actually want to see more of how her family and friends helped her through the journey in the movie, because I think they also have major roles in making Holly realized how she had so many people that were more than willing to support her through anything and that they also had a special connection with Gerry I'm also disappointed because the story didn't stick truly to the novel because it has a better plot. Regardless, it's a movie that's worth your time and will make you learn about all the valuable things in life and how you should find the true meaning of happiness with your loved ones.
On paper this should have worked. A Hollywood A-list production with talent to die for. Swank, after an oddball role in a Karate Kid movie (not joking, look it up) sort of exploded onto the Hollywood scene and by and large has delivered nothing but great performances since. Don't think Connick has ever been less than great in a movie. Butler is usually superb as a dramatic or action lead. Supporting cast that includes Bates and Kudrow...? To mess up this film would itself be a feat but LaGravenese did it.Let's be clear. This film falls apart from the first few scenes and then, remarkably, just gets worse. There is no chemistry between Butler and Swank. None. Zero. Zip. Nada. And if you don't buy into the initial chemistry, then the rambling and erratically edited scenes which follow -- about a dead husband who keeps sending mail to his widow -- is not romantic or fun or engaging, it is just plain creepy.
Okay, so this movie was way worse than I imagined it to be. Hilary Swank as the main character did not fit, and seemed to be a horrible actress. The romance was cheesy. The Irish accents were so bad they actually made me laugh. It seems like they all tried too hard to make the movie good, but in my opinion, they failed miserably anyway. The notes she received were stupid and weird. The characters just annoyed me though it may have been the fact that I disliked most of the women in the story. I actually didn't mind the scenes in Ireland too much mainly just because the scenery was nice. The flashbacks were too long and tedious however, and I found the acting overdone. Anyway, I would not recommend or watch it ever again. Waste of two hours.
