Spoiler Alert: Don't read this if you want to see the movie and be 'surprised'.
So recently (today) I went and saw the movie Dear John. I was really excited to see it. The previews made it seem like an awesomely awesome chick-flick. False. Waste of two hours.

You are so happy in the beginning, then it just gets weird. Savannah writes John a 'Dear John' letter (how original, I know) and tells him that she has met someone and they are engaged. In typical Channing Taytum fashion he shows no emotion on his face, but burns all the letters they are writing.

The odd part is all the actual drama happens within like 5 minutes. You think something good is going to happen, but no. Savannah gets married to Tim and when John comes back to town she is still with Tim. They have a fabulously weird day together and then he leaves. He gives her loads of money to save Tim (cause now he has cancer) and then he's back in the middle east.

Then she writes him a letter telling him Tim has died. WEIRD!

He later comes back and sees her in a food place. They hug and it ends. SO WEIRD!

It leaves you with the weirdest feeling ever and you are thinking "You retard girl! You could have just helped Tim and his son out, you didn't have to marry the guy!" and you're thinking "YOU RETARDED GIRL. YOU ARE DUMB."

All of this happens in the last 15 minutes. Apparently they totally twisted the ending, cause in the book Tim lives! Yet in the movie he dies and John/Savannah hug. What an ending! So weird.

Don't waste your time with the movie. The previews made it out to be so much better than it was.



I do have to mention though that he did a better job acting in this movie than every other one he has been in. {{cough, cough GI JOE cough, cough}}
