    I absolutely love this movie. A lot of people dislike it but i really do like it. It has its funny times and it also has the time to where you should really feel like you are there with the actors. This movie is great.

    I was surprise when I saw the critical reception of this movie. I watched it this morning and it's definitely a walk I will remember. The way they fall in love reminded me quite a bit of 'Naley' from one tree hill and yet it had this whole sentimental feeling to it. It's not the kind of film where the most important thing is to make some good shots with the camera, and I think that's what makes it so memorable. It's completely worth watching and, even though it's a bit too sentimental for me, I suggest everyone who has a chance to not listen to the Cinemato...what ever their called reviewers and watch it - but remember to have a tissue in your hand.

    One of my favorite movies of all time, the story, the message the themes, it was just so beautiful and touching. Shane's and Mandy's acting was perfectly done! Their characters were perfectly portrayed, the emotion, their personalities, the love, the sincerity, the sadness...This movie is their best performance of their careers.

    It is a story of: faith (in God and its love), reconciliation (between teens and parents) forgiveness (to a father who let down a joung kid), discovery (of others' deep sentiments and aspirations) It is a real journey with an unexpected transformation (of Landon from kid to a man) inspired y a beautiful Many Moore, whose voice and songs is spectacular. Get straith on top of my film collection and is a daily inspiration in my life. It would have deserved some better judgement from cinematografic critics. This is a true masterpiece for those who can understand its deep meaning (far beyond the simple love story). Expand

    The most cliche-riddled movie I have ever seen in my life. The teeny-boppers seem to enjoy it. Anyone else with half a brain should avoid it like the plauge.

    I honestly find it hard to believe that any sensible person would want to subject themselves to this utter tripe. Full of character archetypes, shameless manipulation, trite dialogue, and contrived drama, A Walk to Remember is unmistakably the work of a hack; a hack thinks this is the only way to write a compelling romance. Excuse me, but I like romances where I feel for the couple because I like them as people, not because they're religious and contrived illnesses separate them. That's how you can tell when a movie does not care for its own integrity, and simply chooses to manipulate. There are no characters in this mass, only archetypes and contrivances. Expand

    [***SPOILERS***] I loved this movie. It is my favorite movie and counld never get boared while whatching it. It did make me cry. The saddest part in the movie was when Mandy told him that she had leukemia and told him that she didn't tell him sooner because she was afraid that she would lose him. This is a great movie.

    Best movie ever! in the society we have now, where teens are wild, sex is everywhere. we could hardly know teenagers like jaime and landon. the movie just shows us that there is more to life than just sex and fame. Love, hope and faith still exist.

    A movie too beautiful for the cynical mind to accept. Mandy Moore was sorely lacking in experience though perhaps that leant credibility to her role. Shane West was fantastic! He knew the role and tended to its requirements. He had me bought, hooked, and breaking it off with the Significant Other, and that was before he pleaded with his cardiologist father to cure a cancerous Jamie. I mean honestly, who doesn't want; crave to be loved by Shane's Landon? A lover's movie. Parents, Siblings, Friends, Fresh and Jaded lovers. In written form it drips candy, but allow yourself and you too will empty the kleenex boxes. In short, Everyone wants to be Jamie, but we're all afraid to admit it. Terrified of breaking step with the norm. Perhaps we wait until death knocks on our door. Expand

    Boring, and totally unoriginal. A girl who gets teased a lot, and then some popular guy spends time to fulfill her top 3 to-do list? What? If you're going to go fantasy/fairytale, make it a cartoon. It isn't horrible, but it falls short and it's dull.

    We watch movies to get entertained by actors and actresses as they are viewed from a screen. It's extra if we learn something like information which we could say is adaptable in our lives at whatever age or view refreshing sceneries and listen to outstanding sound tracks. This movie may depict intelligent romance that can occur in a cemetery under the stars. But it's more than an intelligent romance. It can go beyond that since the characters may have been products of imagination, but viewed on the screen, they are real and the viewers can relate to any character be it the fathers the mother or the school principal. It's definitely more emotional than any other love stories with the lead and other characters perfect for their roles. Mandy and Shane had a good chemistry onscreen. You can not think of other actors who can make the effects that these two had generated for the movie. Cast these two again in another movie and it will be a blockbuster like Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan...but this time, don't include di novi as the producer...and more importantly don't rush the editing on Mandy's facial expressions. The movie could have been the best ever for the professional critics if it had been filmed meticulously without any obvious mistakes in editing,costumes, rushed scenes etc. We users don't mind them but the critics emphasize them.

    This film not only captures the message of faith, hope and love, but also allows adolescence to see that not all teenage romances have to be centred around sex. Although sex in movies is "vital", a walk to remember shows that sex isn't a big part of real relationships, just a bonus after we've fallen in love.

    Some reviewers didn't like the sappiness. Putting Switchfoot to harps in the score was a little disconcerting. How would you un-sappify this movie? Maybe with an angst-driven sex romp by Landon (West), or a top-of-the-lungs cussout of school officials, or a splattery Columbine climax where we "understand the alienation of the shooter"? Oh wait, that's already been done (Boston Public).

    I believe this is one of the few great movies out there. It holds something above the rest. There are no scenes in which the characters are nude and there's not an overabundance of swearing or fighting. The acting by Shane West and Mandy Moore is OUTSTANDING, and I am quite suprised by the many bad reviews. I think that everyone can relate to this movie in some way, and that the world would be much better off if we all took more notice of Mandy Moore's character Jamie, and her qualities. The message (s) behind this movie is also a strong one that I believe we could all learn from. Overall, I wish more movies took on the qualities of this one...because it is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Expand

    I'm a 34 year old male married with children. I think this movie made the biggest impression on me than any other movie I have ever seen. It really has reinforced my faith and made me look at things with more humility. I saw myself as a male version of Jamie when I was that age, which was not easy since I am a man. I have to say that I actually cried.

    This is one of the more touching movies that I have ever seen in my life, right up there with Titanic. It makes you look at life in a different light, and makes you want to be a more kind and loving person towards people, especially being a Christian, and this being a Christian, faith based movie.

    Going into the movie, from a guy's prospective, I was not thrilled with the idea of a pop star movie. 'Great, Mandy Moore is in it, whoopy.' But, for a chick flick, the movie was pretty good. The acting from the 2 leads was way better than expected, but the direction and production of the film lacked to say the least. Sparks should have gotten the production staff from his other book's movie 'Messege in a Bottle" for this movie. Also, considering all of the footage that had to be taken out to acheive the PG rating, the movie probably would have flowed better as a PG-13 movie. Regardless, its about time that a considered 'teen' movie was a good film and wasn't loaded with superficial crap. Not to mention, the soundtrack is actually pretty good too. Featuring Mandy Moore of course, West's band makes a cameo and Switchfoot and Cold have great songs on it too. To sum it up, the film was 'ok' ....hint for the fellas, take your girl to see this one ;) Expand

    I thought it was fabulous! Finally there is a movie that doesn't need to have all the discusting details that all the silly producers put into movies today just to get an audience's attention! This is true love that doesn't end at just a kiss like most stories. It shows people that you can live life to the fullest, and have love. True love. Now I am not a little teeny bopper. Romance stories can be a bit on the weird side, and sometimes even creepy. But if you had an open mind, then you would see the beauty in this film. Yes I am a Christian. That may change my opinion of it, but even if I wasn't this movie would always be a good break from all the gross things they put in the other films and their content. This is new, and refreshing! I loved it! Thank heavens for such a marvelous movie! Expand

    I am personally astounded by some of the apparent negative criticism regarding this movie. Are we so conditioned by society that we fail to appreciate a motion picture that illustrates an honest story of love, faith, and inspiration? What is life worth living for if it isn't for these very same sentiments? Are you disappointed because this film doesn't provide the daily dosage of sex, violence, dishonesty, and perverted comedy? Or is it the mentioning of God and the portrayal faith that scares you? "A Walk to Remember" is absolutely one of the most moving and praiseworthy pictures I have ever seen, especially from Hollywood! Furthermore, it is not just a "teenage love story" or "chick flick"; I find it deals with the foundational principles of life and although presented with a romantic ring, delivers a much more meaningful message. It firmly supports moral values and principals that directly oppose the typical Hollywood influence. I applaud its boldness for standing up against the norm. It is one of the only films that helps me find hope for today's movie industry. My perspective is from the standpoint of a very happily married Christian man, near thirty, who adores his wife and daughter. I cannot see anyone, with a heart, walking away from this movie without feeling something special. Expand

    This movie was really good because of the acting and the plot of the movie. It makes me cry every single time I watch it and some people think its hard to believe it because I'm a guy. All I have to say is that this movie ranks top on my list for romantic movies to watch with that special someone because you realize that the love two people share will last forever, no matter what happens.

    This was a decent movie. My boyfriend liked the cars, and I liked the plot. Not the best love story, but worth watching, especially when you want a good cry.

    i thought this movie was great. it's definitely one of my favorites. it was really sweet and it shows how people can change someone else's life. it's all about faith, hope, and love. i don't think i'll ever meet anyone as sweet as the main characters in this movie. i plan to read the book too and hopefully it's as good as the movie-maybe even better!

    What a refreshing change of pace from the usual obscene, raging hormone teenage movies of today! As an adult viewer with teenagers of my own, I appreciate the Jamie character, who stands on her own morals and doesn't care what others think of this in her. A very sweet movie: Moms & Dads: rent this one and watch it with your teenagers -- both sons and daughters. Enjoy!

    This movie was absolutely inspiring, heart-warming and indescribably sweet. A fresh overwhelming outlook to fairytale romances, furthur redeemed to 'a great romance film' with two charming, gorgeous and talented leads.

    I really loved this movie! This is my all time favorite movie! Titanic was my favorite movie, however this movie is more sweet b/c they got married and she didnt do anything with him. I mean its not like Titanic or Crossroads where obviously they have a few not so great parts for younger children. This movie really is sweet. Mandy Moore is my favorite movie star so that also was incorporated with how much I liked and enjoyed this movie. Shane West did a great job in the beggining with being a jerk/sweet guy. I think everyone should see this movie! Expand

    I made the mistake of taking my girlfriend to this movie...fortunately, I can play the "sensitive guy" pretty well, so it's all good. Anyway...the movie has some good acting and believable moments--it seems Moore is a better actress than singer. Also, it has the several songs by the rock band Switchfoot, which is the best band in the world, so it can't be all bad. The moving of the story from the 50's into present-day didn't really work for me, but it justified the soundtrack (which is really the only reason Hollywood makes movies). I have to admit I cried at the end, but I have seriously overactive tear ducts. If you like chick flicks, this is one of the better ones. Expand

    This movie is the best i've seen in a while. It is proof that a movie can be entertaining without having guns and bombs, it actually has a story! That alone is a reason to like it! I find that the cast was perfect and unlike most movies the couple actually looked like a couple. I wouldn't change anything about this movie. Of course there are a few small mistakes....what movie doesn't....and it was a departure from the book I am telling everyone to see it! Expand

    This might not be a movie that is worthy in Hollywood of an Oscar, but it wins over the hearts of those that believe that beautiful and simple things really do happen in this world.

    A monstrosity of a movie that I am all too eager to forget.
  2. 50
    The film is well-scrubbed of anything resembling sexuality, more a nonthreatening fairy tale than the romantic drama it aims to be. Its appeal flies straight to the hearts of 13-year-old girls.
  3. 30
    A vehicle for teen singing sensation Mandy Moore. As vehicles go, it's an Edsel.
