What the heck was this all about? What the heck was the ending? Worst movie I've seen in years, although I loved the Notebook, and also Amanda - I guess I would have to primarily fault the writer and director - don't waste your What the heck was this all about? What the heck was the ending? Worst movie I've seen in years, although I loved the Notebook, and also Amanda - I guess I would have to primarily fault the writer and director - don't waste your money or time on this.

The main characters are unbelievable and the story developed poorly because of bad writing: a rich girl that is perfect (despite she stating other wise) falls in love with a guy that says almost nothing and wants to me his dad in the secondThe main characters are unbelievable and the story developed poorly because of bad writing: a rich girl that is perfect (despite she stating other wise) falls in love with a guy that says almost nothing and wants to me his dad in the second day. Then, when the movie starts getting somewhere, they bring the "complication" with a third act that never ends making sense and a ending that feels out of place.… Expand
