Critic Reviews

Roger Ebert

A love story so sweet, sincere and positive that it sneaks past the defenses built up in this age of irony. Read full review

Seattle Post-Intelligencer Ellen A. Kim

What saves the film is the chemistry between the two leads. Read full review

L.A. Weekly Chuck Wilson

West delivers the emotional goods when tragedy strikes in the final reel. If 17-year-old pop star Moore isn't a skilled actress, she's at least unassuming. Read full review

USA Today Mike Clark

Goo oozes without mercy in A Walk to Remember. Read full review

Salon Stephanie Zacharek

A vehicle for teen singing sensation Mandy Moore. As vehicles go, it's an Edsel. Read full review

The A.V. Club Scott Tobias

Basically a prim, desexualized "Carrie," told from the prom date's perspective and featuring Peter Coyote in the Piper Laurie role. Read full review

Film Threat Michael Dequina

A monstrosity of a movie that I am all too eager to forget. Read full review

Great drama movie. It has the laughs, tears, and soft moments a drama movie should have. Good for a date movie or to just pop in and rewatch! One of Mandy's best works.

So the plotline is a little cheesy but it does show some heart. It's not all sugar plums and fairies.

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.

I was very disappointed after watching this movie. After reading the book, I automatically fell in love with the characters and could not wait to see them come to life in the movie. The script writer left out almost everything from the book which I for one, was very shocked about. There wereI was very disappointed after watching this movie. After reading the book, I automatically fell in love with the characters and could not wait to see them come to life in the movie. The script writer left out almost everything from the book which I for one, was very shocked about. There were so many beautiful scenes in this book and the way Nicholas Sparks writes is like a work of art. In the book, Jamie is portrayed has the girl who always helps the needy. She is always volunteering at the orphanage. I thought it was very strange how they left such a significant detail out of the movie. My all time favorite part of the book was when Landon went to collect the money jars for the orphans for Jamie. I can honestly go on and on about how poorly this movie was directed. But than again, the books are always better than the movies.… Expand
