jaysus, joseph and mary, watching this movie is like having a 2-hour emotional enema.

now all I want is to go to Ireland, get some new pretty shoes, and take a nap—pretty much in reverse order.

I haven’t read the book and to be honest i thought this movie would be awful, but it really surprised me. I just loved the whole story about how he dies, but it’s like he cares about her even after his death because he sends her the letters to make everything easier for her and so that she can actually move on with her life after that. I really loved that. I mean think if something like that happened to you, wouldn’t you love that your husband did that? so i’m saying this movie is worth watching because it was worth everything for me. I understand the movie might not live up to the book as movies often don’t live up to books, but people should give it a try even if! :)

I couldn’t finish it at the first time. And at the second time. I’m watching it for the third time, where I left it. It’s just that I don’t like it. Never had this feeling with a movie. It’s too bad!

I read the book, and didn’t enjoy it as it should be.

Honestly, what’s the big deal with all this?

Just writing and talking about feelings, feelings that are not properly reflected.

Too much talking, and no action!

Awful.

And it has nothing to do with the book.

I didn’t like the book very much and don’t know why I thought the movie would be better. It wasn’t.

I went into this movie knowing almost nothing and expecting nothing. I love Gerard Butler and thought I’d give it a shot. I cried through the whole thing, but I cry at commercials. Ultimately I loved it!! Totally romantic, different from the typical. Loved Gerry’s character, he’s just adorable and Holly’s character is very real. Worth seeing!

I thought this was going to be a cute romantic comedy but it seemed like more of a drama than anything. It’s true, I didn’t finish watching it and I’ve heard there are some really funny moments in it, later on. But I wasn’t prepared to have a sob-fest to get to them. Maybe it’s just me but I don’t really like movies that make me cry more than once anymore. So I cried when he first died, I cried when she called his cell phone just to hear his voice on the recorded message and then I turned it off before I could cry about the cake and recorded song he had prebooked before he died to be sent on her birthday.

On another note, Gerard Butler’s Irish accent was horrible! Maybe the producers wrongly assumed that because he was Scottish, he could do an Irish accent without training so they skipped on the voice coach. I actually really like Gerard Butler, he’s one of the reasons I wanted to see this movie but even I have to admit his accent was a joke!

annoying lady and stoopidly hot/ rad dudes.
too close to reality.
