ObserverRex ReedFeb 15, 2012
The Vow is not exactly a woman's picture. It's more about how a man falls in love, loses his love and gives up everything in life to focus on regaining his love. Maybe it's a woman's picture from a male point of view. However you slice it, it's a welcome loaf-far from perfect, but as filling as a home-cooked meal. Read full review

The Vow is agreeable enough. It may be puddin'-headed but it's not soul-crushing. Read full review
