Nice romantic movie (by MovieCriticMarvelfan) |
The movie will definitely put a smile on your face. It's a romantic drama with a few brushes of comedy thrown in.Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum play a young married couple whose lives take a tragic fate when they suffer a head on car accident.McAdams's character isn't horribly disfigured or anything like that, but she suffer brain trauma which has blocked all memory of Tatum's character Leo.Leo tries to get regain her memory by trying to have her fall in love with him again.It's true that these types of movies aren't original, but that doesn't bother me too much <more> |
Brilliantly Executed! Magnificent Screenplay! (by bpeterson101) |
This is my first review, so you may take it with a grain of salt. I usually spend a lot of time reading reviews but never care to write. I was so impressed by this film that I just had to write something and share with the IMDb world what an amazing film this is. I was dragged to this movie by my wife. I don't really care for these kinds of movies, but as I sat there watching the film I became so intertwined with the characters. This movie does an excellent job at building the characters and allowing you to feel the emotion. I wouldn't really recommend this film to single guys, maybe <more> |

It was believable (by kayyhayy89) |
The thing about The Vow was very well acted, especially Channing Tatum's character, Leo. It was shown from his side of the story, which is what set it apart from just your other typical romantic comedy. The was compassion, you saw it in McAdams & Tatum's eyes. They had on set chemistry that made you believe and made you feel like you were apart of it It wasn't over the top. People that are trying to compare it to The Notebook doesn't do the movie justice. The Vow is believable, and the fact that it is based on true events, make it even more heart warming. The movie was <more> |

Unexpectedly Good, Worth The Money (by skitz1015) |
Basically, if you're a romantic drama type, you'll love this movie. I'm NOT a romantic drama type, and I still enjoyed it immensely. The shining star, no pun intended, for me was Channing Tatum. He added so much subtle, and sometimes not-so-subtle, comedy to the movie. The ending was also not expected but I was satisfied with it. That said though, I could have easily watched another 30 minutes of this. No one was ready for it to end and that's a good sign. The plot is what it is, being based on a true story and all. It felt like the screenwriters and director wanted to stay <more> |
Sweet but not exactly a romance in the traditional sense. (by MartinHafer) |
While reading up on "The Vow", I learned that professional reviewers didn't particularly care for this film. The same can be said for many of the IMDb reviews. While I would disagree, since I really enjoyed the film, I can certainly understand some of the dislike. For folks wanting a traditional romantic film, "The Vow" isn't exactly a date movie. A traditional date film has a formula--including a happy ending. And, oddly, the film ends on a hopeful but vague note--disappointing those needing the happy finale.In addition to reading up on the reviews, I also looked <more> |
Great drama/romantic-drama. Keeps its distance from clichés and cheesiness. (by MosHr) |
Eight years ago, in the same Valentine's day weekend, "50 first dates" hit the theaters and made memory loss into a romantic comedy. "The Vow" takes another form of memory loss but the same guy-forgetting effect to a romantic comedy setup. Paige Rachel McAdams loses the past five years of her memories; the past five years where he met and married her husband Leo Channing Tatum . Then tada, the plot then circles back to the same need: he must make her fall in love with him again.Memory loss makes for good Valentine's day fodder because it can explore the concept <more> |
