Movie review preview

1. Name of the publication
The Notebook
2. Name of the writer
Jan Sardi
3. Grade or score the movie review on a 1-10 scale in your opinion
9
4. High Points of the movie (performances, cinematography, plot, etc.)
I liked it when it started raining on both actors when they were kayaking and then they got all lovey dovey with each other. I also liked the end of the movie when they both died together holding hands. 5. Low points of the movie (performances, cinematography, plot, etc.)
I thought Allie's mom could've played a better role and be more sassy with her. 6. Quote a paragraph from the review that you think expresses the overall opinion of the reviewer about the movie.
"Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times praised the film, awarding it with three-and-a-half stars out of four, calling the photography "striking in its rich, saturated effects" and stating that the "actors are blessed by good material." Peter Lowryof Film Threat gave the film three-and-a-half stars out of five; praising the performances of both Gosling and McAdams, he wrote: "Gosling and especially McAdams give all-star performances, doing just enough to hand the reins over to the pros, who take what's left of the film and finish the audience off with some touching scenes that don't leave a dry eye in the house." About the film itself, he added: "Overall, The Notebook is a surprisingly good film that manages to succeed where many other "chick flick" like romances fail."
