For grownups, this treacle is going to be pretty hard to swallow.

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

Boston GlobeJonathan Perry
A movie where the miracles -- and treacly moments -- keep topping each other. Read full review

The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Kevin Courrier
Since the movie has so little conviction, or personality of its own, it's a walk you can easily forget. Read full review

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

Washington PostMichael O'Sullivan

Chicago TribuneRobert K. Elder
Good performances in bad movies are nothing new, but it's sad that Moore's first major cinematic outing scrapes the bottom of the melodramatic barrel.

Austin ChronicleKimberley Jones
Takes the giant leap from your run-of-the-mill mediocrity into an alternative universe of awfulness. Read full review

Film ThreatMichael Dequina
