With refreshing intelligence, A Walk to Remember offers welcome relief from the recent onslaught of teen-movie crudeness. Adapted from the novel by Nicholas Sparks and transplanted from 1958 to the present day, this admirable teen romance recognizes that two 18-year-olds--Landon (Shane West) and Jamie (pop singer Mandy Moore)--can be smart, mature, and sensible about the very real love they share. He's a popular kid in the cool crowd. She's got a goody-goody reputation as the dowdy daughter of a local minister (Peter Coyote); her values and priorities aren't rooted in peer pressure, and Landon feels blessed by her self-assured nobility. Their mutual affection inevitably heads into Love Story territory, but the movie is honest enough to survive its own schmaltz, and its attractive cast (including Daryl Hannah as Landon's mom) embraces a tone of sincerity and mutual respect. Finally... a teen movie with teens you can admire. --Jeff Shannon

I was very impressed with the quick shipment of the DVD I ordered. I had seen parts of the movie on TV and knew that it would be a good family movie to have in our collection since it encompasses values of trust, hope, faith, and unconditional love. I received it in only 3 days after ordering.
Perfect Love Story August 12, 2008
"A Walk to Remember." Understand my full meaning when I say that this movie, an adaptation of Nicholas Sparks' novel of the same name, is my favorite love story. Period. I know there are parts that have room for improvement, such as the dialogue in the beginning, but I love this movie like I love every good story. Unreasonably and fully.
I first saw this movie when I was in high school. I caught it in the middle during an airing on HBO, and was captivated by how Landon (Shane West) and Jamie (Mandy Moore) came together, how it not only sent Landon on a soul searching path to redemption, it also enriched Jamie's life in a way that is hard to describe. The performances are pitch perfect, but so genuine and underplayed that you almost forget you're watching a movie, which is an effect that only a handful of films had ever had on me... and I've watched thousands of movies. So in seeing the second half of this movie, I knew I had to have it... and was ecstatic to see that it was playing again directly after the first airing. I taped it and, as I was home sick the entire next week, I must have watched it at least once each day. Twice, on some. I bought the DVD soon after.
Few movies are as sincere as this one and, while it does delve into very lovey dovey territory, it never feels gooey or false. This movie is a celebration of faith, love, change, life, and death, and it will always be in my Top Five.
10/10 Classic.
I am a giant crybaby... June 11, 2008

I absolutely love this movie, however I can still not make myself watch it all the way to the end. I like to just imagine how it ends rather than finding out what really happened. Heartbreaking love story, wonderful movie. A must see unless you are a giant crybaby like me, then you'll know when to turn it off.
