he has survived 3 tours of war in the middle east, when many of his comrades didn't come home. You can sense the depth of emotion and turmoil, and can easily understand why it was often hard to just find words to express himself. You can see the military training and discipline, the steel resolve to control his reactions, even when harassed by the town bully/ex-husband. There's also loyalty, concern for others, tenderness, selflessness, willingness to work hard – he's the man of every woman's dream! It's easy to see that Beth is a survivor of an extremely abusive marriage. Even though she's now divorced, she's still not free from the abusive and controlling ex-husband. She's very careful in how she responds or endures his abusive threats, in order to keep him from going into a greater rage… and I cheered for her when she finally found the courage to speak up and take control of her own destiny. Keith, the ex-husband, is easy to despise, for his hateful, snarly, manipulating character… and yet in the end we saw a little glimpse of good in his soul as well… a little glimpse of what he might have been if he'd only been willing to humble himself and get help much earlier. I loved the happy ending, I loved the story, and I very much appreciated that the producers kept it clean. I can't wait for the DVD – this is a keeper!!

was, at times, erotic.To the story... the story told the tale of Alley meets Noah, and Noah is in the special forces, and has to go away. Alley finds someone else when he is away, and when Noah comes back, he is mega sad. But then he discovers a car that can transform into a robot, and this gives him hope. From then on, he becomes accepted into a league called the Avengers, where he is chosen as the male representative for his district to participate in the annual event called the Hunger Games. From here, he host the biggest party with a lot of drugs and titties before having to attend a schooling year at Hogwarts. Here, he plows the bitches every night, especially Hermione, who has a baby. This baby is called Voldemort, and forms an aliance with a guy named Thor. Ultimately, Noah must make a choice to kill himself to protect the earth from a meteor.THe story is good, a lot of sexcii time, but as for the movie, I would rather take a dump on myself than watch it. Therefore, I rate it 10/10!

Anyway, a totally enjoyable chick flick!

performance wise, but she did gain steam toward the end of the film. I gave this movie a 9/10 because I wanted sappy romance and I got it with some extra steamy Zac Efron.

where Logan gets up to leave the pub, but turns around to down his beer, before leaving. Believable stuff. Top movie. Thoroughly recommend

when everyone was looking and then deny it, beat up his ex-wife when she defied/challenged him, or any number of movie tropes, the story took a more subtle route. He is portrayed as the "bad guy" so to speak, but not in a one-dimensional manner. And every time I expected the love interests to: rip each other's clothes off at the first opportunity, fall head over heels for each other in a melodramatic, saccharine fashion, and over-explain every scene at every given opportunity, they surprisingly didn't. Instead, the love interests are portrayed as gradually falling for each other over a period of time in a regular, reasonable manner. I especially appreciated that dialogue was used sparingly and everything wasn't talked to death like a lot of movies these days. If you're looking for a witty, fast-paced, sex-filled movie with lots of dialogue and plenty of action, this definitely isn't the movie for you. But I thoroughly enjoyed the refreshing change of pace, the sweet, gentle love story, as well as a surprisingly decent performance by Zac Efron. My main gripe is that there were entirely too many back-lit scenes. I wish I could have the sun following me around all the time, back- lighting my profile. Overall, though, I recommend it. Will probably watch again.

people, bad people, decent story-line, fine acting.…it's a pretty good movie. Nothing earth-shattering or Oscar-worthy happens here, perhaps, but it's a film I'd recommend and one I enjoyed watching.

Taylor Schilling, Blythe Danner, and the others are good foils to his journey for understanding. My military audience was very engaged during the movie, especially spoiler follows when Beth tells off her stalker ex-husband. They cheered and clapped for her. This movie won't change your life, but it will help you appreciate it. Take a friend and go see it.

travel and walking all the way on foot, from CO to Louisiana to say thanks. But the words can't get out of his mouth as he meets her for the first time. Her name is Beth Taylor Schilling and she is a single mom to a boy named Ben. Whom Ben and Logan take an instant liking to one another.She thinks that he wants to have a job helping out on their farm with the animals. At first it is uneasy as she thinks he is some kind of strange young man. But always in case in film, both of them grow on one another.But his grandma who raised her, played by the underrated but charming Blythe Danner takes an instant liking to the ex-Marine. And is the one that actually hires him.He is confronted with the film's antagonist a deputy sheriff named Keith, who was Beth's husband but has since divorce and is very bitter about it. And Ben's father. Who does not hide his disdain for Logan at all.Logan later finds out that it was Beth's brother Drake, who was killed, that "saved" him. And saved his soul even. But still he can't tell her and tries to hide that fact throughout the movie after he sees Beth and Nana crying over his grave.Really a romantic film and a date movie. As it shows Zac maturing into an adult start. Taylor Schilling who is the female lead has a huge potential in movies as she is a great actress. Blythe Danner steals the scenes that she is in, as always.Won't win any awards but still a great date movie.
