"π¨ πΎπππ π»π πΉπππππππ" - An Old Movie Review
A whole 21 years after the movie was released, I finally got to see it today.
After seeing "The fault in our stars", "Five feet apart", "Everything everything", "Midnight sun", and a few others, I finally got to see this... "A Walk To Remember".
Why did I mention these movie titles? It is because they do have same kinda focus or similar storyline but there is still that huge difference that makes each of these movies stand out and that is how the whole story played out. This movie gave a beautiful storyline, something different even though similar to the many others I've seen.
Release date: 25 January 2002
Director: Adam Shankman
Story by: Nicholas Sparks
Featured song: Only Hope
Adapted from the book: A Walk to Remember
A short storyline about the movie
A rebellious guy (Landon) keeps bad company and gets into trouble, he is punished to serve a community service and there he met a girl (Jamie) who seem to have not much going on with her life but is a peaceful lady who with her lifestyle won her the name "Virgin Mary". The two meets during Landon's community's service and Landon is made to learn more about life, hope and love.
The storyline is a beautiful one as I've said even though similar to the movies I mentioned but I like that it taught me a lot and gave me the emotional feeling of what it is like to find a new hope, have someone believe in you again.
The movie has this two as lead characters with the start showing how the guy falls into trouble by recruiting new friends wrongly and almost lost a life. It's amazing how things happen for things to happen. He is seen in church service that he reluctantly sits and listen to the preaching and singing from the choir. In the choir, he couldn't help but notice the most melodious voice among them and she happened to be the Reverend's daughter.
Meeting again during his community service and is made to act in a play, he had to make friends with Jamie who helped him with his lines and they found themselves falling in love with each other.
The movie is an old one but I couldn't stop noticing the fashion styles in it, how fashion has evolved from that time till now is surprisingly impressive. I also think a lot hasn't changed about having bullies in school, the bad guys, the good and oppressed ones and then, the quiet girl who would change things for good.
I wasn't surprised about these in the storyline but I definitely love that the old movie isn't so old compared to recent movies in that category.
Does the movie have a happy ending? How did Jamie change the bad guy, Landon? What is the walk to remember about in the movie?
You'll have to see the movie to find out but yeah, it's highly recommended if you like such kind of movies... Romance, drama, music. And yeah about the music aspect of the movie, I found a new song through this movie and I'm really glad I did. Will have more practice of it and sing it as much as I can because it is definitely one of those kind of songs for soul uplifting and I love the character voice in the song too.
Do check out the movie and have a nice time seeing it, you can also check out my favourite song from the movie here... Only Hope by Mandy Moore.
This is one of my favorite movies!! π₯Ή From the first time I have seen this, I cried and cried wondering why Jamie left Landon. I was still young then and I couldnβt yet understand the message of the movie. I even asked why directors film movies that make people cry π
Until then, I understood that is really the reality of life. Change is constant. People come and go. That is why it is very important that we express our love to our loved ones and be thankful that they are still with us today. π€
Haha yeah, I did ask those questions in movies I've seen in the past π
But as you've said, it's the way life is π₯²
Thanks for stopping by
You're welcome π
Somehow, I have seen all the movies you mentioned except this... I am thinking of a lot with a gangster falling in love with someone cool enough to be called virgin Mary and can tell that she has a lot of work to do with helping him.
It's definitely going to be a good one to see... Thanks for sharing.
Oh nice, you'll love this one if you've seen the others hehe
Thanks George

Haha it's a really old movie π
I hope you learn from it as much as I did
