One of my guy friends had 'The Notebook' lying around and I asked him, if it's any good. He said it in a loud voice that it's not his but it's his gf. I started to laugh. He said he doesn't know if it's any good since he hasn't seen it yet.
Anyway, I took it home and watched that evening.
It has to one of best love stories I have seen in years and I can't believe I waited so long. I guess because I wasn't familiar with Ryan Gosling's work besides seeing him in 'Murder by Numbers'.
It’s so breathtaking in a sense that all of us could somewhat relate to the characters and really feel it for them because I am sure everyone still remembers his/her first love. The chemistry between Ryan and Rachel were amazing and great acting were involved.
Let's just say, there is not a movie that made me cry like a baby as much as this movie. It really moved and touched me emotionally. Even after viewing it, I actually broke down and cried for a couple of minutes.
It's not your typical romantic cheesy chick movies. Oh yeah, I went out that weekend and got myself a copy. ^_^
