No amount of nuzzling between the co stars could bring about the chemistry between the two. The story lacks gravitas that the actor is trying to portray. I really liked walk to remember and Notebook so I rushed to see this movie. Utterly disappointed, Nicholas sparks has to pay me to watch this movie. The story is at times preposterous. The end even more..How the villain conveniently is eliminated. Wish all the negative people in my life got eliminated that way. Since I watched the movie in the theater there were some demented teenagers who whistled and cheered every time the actor showed his body. Honestly I just have a better taste when it comes to men. Zac Efron looks so clueless he tries hard to portray like an ex marine but God alone knows who told him that it means to look anally retentive at all times. He just looked constipated. I have absolutely no clue as to what is happening to the taste of people.
