I'm very embarrassed to write this review
I am not the movie's target audience. I am a 34-year old male that never had much time for most teen movies (except for the more cynical fare like Heathers) and I almost pride myself on my cynicism and acerbic manner. I edited a book entitled "Teddy Bear Cannibal Massacre."

Needless to say I did not rent this movie, buy this movie or see this movie in the movie theaters.

I saw it on network television, late at night. And I couldn't stop watching it. And it's not a great movie - well I don't think it's a great movie - and its faults are staring you right in the face. Mandy Moore's character is too good (she does have her moments of anger but no self-doubt to speak of), the boy is too easily changed by her. The preacher father is a stereotype. The movie could double for an abstinence sermon. Half the movie involves the biggest cliche in Romance movies (ok, it's becoming the fourth biggest cliche after the montage, the "don't get on the plane" scene and the standard romantic comedy plot that involves coupling-breakup-reunion five minutes before credits) and I cried my eyes out.

I read an article discussing The Catcher in the Rye and tearing it apart as a bag of cliches (dead brother, cute sister, fake teen dialogue) but its sincerity is so genuine that it overcomes these faults to the point where most readers don't notice them. Well, I notice the faults in this movie but its sincerity overwhelms all the dopy lines, cliched characters and convolutions of the plot.

One of my favorite movies!
A Walk to Remember is one of the best movies ever. I always love love stories. I felt that me and my boyfriend could relate to the characters. I first saw this movie back when it was first in theaters in 2002 and loved it. Many years later I rewatch it and love it just as much. Now I have my boyfriend and we are a lot like Jamie and Landon. He was popular and a troublemaker, I wasn't someone who got into trouble and I wasn't in his group, but we got together even though we were so different. Like Jamie and Landon, at first we had some arguments because we had very different lives, but even though we would argue, we fell in love and got together. Like Jamie and Landon we got together and became very happy. A Walk to Remember is one of my favorite movies. Jamie is the Reverand's daugther and Landon is a popular boy at school. After a dare, he is put in a class with Jamie. Although at first Landon and Jamie seem very different and have some arguments, Jamie and Landon fall in love. Their relationship is wonderful and as they get together they form a strong bond of love. Jamie changes Landon as Landon sees life in a different way. When Jamie reveals a secret to Landon, Landon and Jamie's love strengthens and Landon's life is changed forever. The movie is touching and a scene before the ending is very moving. This is one of the greatest movies ever.
