The love scenes are gauzily romantic and staunchly PG. Dialogue is heavy on sentimentality. The story hits many familiar notes — a handsome widower who hasn't quite gotten over his wife's death, a need to start over fresh in a quaintly beautiful setting. This is director Lasse Hallstrom's second Sparks adaptation after Dear John in , and it's hard to imagine why someone who made such wonderful films as My Life as a Dog and What's Eating Gilbert Grape would bother with this formulaic, schmaltzy fare.

Parent of an infant, 3, and 6-year-old Written by GambleFam May 5, Very good "date night" film Really enjoyed this movie. I highly recommend this film. Has some intense chasing scenes and a sex scene that involves a women who "technically" is still married even though she is separated and running from her very abusive husband. At first it seems he can use his "police power" to track her down, but he get's caught and it is good to see that he doesn't get away with it.
Adult Written by froggirl80 March 22, No Safe Haven Once again, I am disappointed with the direction these romantic movies have gone in. We see a man and woman becomes attracted to each other and then, they have sex.
Again, what is the message being sent? Speaking of an abusive marriage, it is sad that violence against women is being seen in the movies but hopefully, something good will come out of it. Hopefully, a woman who is being abused can find the strength to defend herself and leave the relationship.
And hopefully, we can see movies that present a couple in loving, emotional relationship without the sex. Kissing, yes. Hugging, yes. Parents' Ultimate Guide to Support our work!
