Starring : Channing Tatum, Amanda Seyfried, Richard Jenkins
Director : Lasse Hallstrom
Running Time : 107 mins
While home on leave from the army, John Tyree (Tatum) meets and falls for student Savannah Curtis (Seyfried). They manage to get past the fact that John is due to finish his tour of duty and has to go back off to war, and they write to each other all the time, but following the events of 9/11 John decides to reenlist when his tour of duty finishes, much to the frustration of Savannah.
This is a very slow going attempt at cashing in on recent sad romance movies such as Letters To Juliet, The Note Book, Remember Me or more recently The Vow. Personally I didn’t really like this – the characters were a little one-dimensional and the fact that John can’t choose between fighting for his country and being with the woman he loves, and that Savannah marries another man just because John's off fighting, doesn’t really say much for their relationship.
