Summary: A car accident puts Paige (McAdams) in a coma, and when she wakes up with severe memory loss, her husband Leo (Tatum) works to win her heart again.
Leo: How do you look at the one you love and tell yourself it is time to walk away.
As you all probably already know, I'm OBSESSED with any romance story, especially anything written by Nicholas Sparks. Though this was not one of Sparks' creations, two of his previous actors (McAdams from The Notebook and Tatum from Dear John) came together to create a love story with his signature passion.
Leo: Life's all about moments of impact, and how they change our lives forever. But what if one day you could no longer remember any of them?
Leo and Paige had such a perfect love in the beginning of the movie. They met, they dated, they fell hopeless and madly in love. So when Paige loses her memory of the last five years, the years she met Leo, they have to work to get that once in a lifetime love back. The only problem is Paige still thinks she's engaged to her ex-fiance (Scott Speedman - from Underworld & Felicity "Ben") and living a wonderful, classy life as a law student. Leo loves Paige with all his heart, but how does he make the love of his life fall in love with him all over again?
Paige: I vow to help you love life, to always hold you with tenderness, to have the patience that love demands, to speak when words are needed, and to share the silence when they are not, to agree to disagree about red velvet cake, to live within the warmth of your heart, and always call it home.
This movie is filled with so much emotion but there seems to be something missing. The movie had you rooting for Leo the entire time and although there were not enough twists in the plot to keep you on your toes. It's not the typical perfect love story; there are so many ups and downs in the relationship that it's impossible not to have some sort of reaction to it. Although someone told me that since it was based from a true story, it was much better when you get to read it via Reader's Digest. :) I'm going to look for that issue :)
Some events in the movie annoyed me and I wasn't too big of a fan of how everything ended, but the entire journey of the story was impossible not to life. Rachel McAdams is just gorgeous, she can be paired to anyone and you'll just smile watching her and Channing Tatum is cute, I'm also imagining Ryan Gosling foe the role. If your in the mood for a love story that's perfect yet so unperfect at the same time, check out this movie. And watching Channing Tatum for a full two hours (and I mean REALLY seeing Channing Tatum) doesn't hurt either. Do you think if I went and got hit by a car, I'd wake up to have Channing Tatum as my husband? Hmmm, I'd say it's worth a shot ;)
