Amazon.co.uk Review When you consider that old-fashioned tearjerkers are an endangered species in Hollywood, a movie like The Notebook can be embraced without apology. Yes, it's syrupy sweet and clogged with clichés, and one can only marvel at the irony of Nick Cassavetes directing a weeper that his late father John--whose own films were devoid of saccharine sentiment--would have sneered at. Still, this touchingly impassioned and great-looking adaptation of the popular Nicholas Sparks novel has much to recommend, including appealing young costars (Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams) and appealing old costars (James Garner and Gena Rowlands, the director's mother) playing the same loving couple in (respectively) early 1940s and present-day North Carolina. He was poor, she was rich, and you can guess the rest; decades later, he's unabashedly devoted, and she's drifting into the memory-loss of senile dementia. How their love endured is the story preserved in the titular notebook that he reads to her in their twilight years. The movie's open to ridicule, but as a delicate tearjerker it works just fine. Message in a Bottle and A Walk to Remember were also based on Sparks novels, suggesting a triple-feature that hopeless romantics will cherish. --Jeff Shannon

brill September 8, 2010 casper101 brill cryed my eyes out great love story and great acting buy it you'll love it
Get tissues ready September 8, 2010 Poshpaws (Devon) Beautiful story, believeable characters (apparently the younger actors were an actual item in real life) and lovely film setting in the days when 'things were good'!
I was in tears at the end (typical chick flick) but for good cause. If you don't cry, you must have a heart of stone - if so - please see me after class!
Wonderful... September 2, 2010 Endlessly What can I say, I loved this movie! Having just watched Remember Me & Australia, this beat them both for me. I am the type that does not cry easily at human films, but I blubbed at this! Both main characters were cast perfectly, and even though I was not a Ryan Gosling fan, I am now! He is perfect as Noah and Rachel McAdams is perfect in her role. I think the old people did it for me on the tear front! All girls want a Noah... I do!
A little question August 30, 2010 jORGE (Valencia, Spain) Someone who has bought it could tell me if the movie has spanish subs. Personally I dont care, but my girlfriend does not understand english very well.
Nice to see James Garner August 20, 2010 Mr. M. R. Torrington (uk) I am not usually in to these type of films but found this to be very good.
