Drama movies don’t elicit the ooh-aah response from me that movies of more classic proportions, i.e. The Man Who Would Be King, or more complicated animated movies like MUR-E.
But he can absorb and act every bit creatively in his own way through the storyline.
I liked Commentario (PG-13, 2004) for the message of eternal love and for the way the chronicle is read in the book, for the hint of mystery that surrounds the characters. and for the performances from all the actors in this movie. Based on Nicholas Sparks the novel is based on Seabrook Island, South Carolina, a quaint seaside community where the rich spend summers and have teenage children. they know the localities.
James Garner was my favorite actor in this movie. He has always been in my book classes and the image of the narrator shows that he has not lost his composure. Although the rabbit has advanced in years since I followed him in his Maverick and Rockford Lima days. Years before the appearance of this film, he underwent both surgically replaced and having knees (2000) having suffered a quintuple bypass heart surgery (1988). This is the perfect low-maintenance gift, made proud!
Intricacies
The film begins in a nursing home, with the manager (James Garner) reading a book to a patient, played by Gena Rowlands. We are not privy to his identity or the reasoning behind this daily reading ritual, but it is not difficult to begin to guess who and why (at least in part!)
The story chronicles how local teenager Noah (Ryan Gosling) and wealthy summer Allie (Rachel McAdams) first met, their summer romance unraveled and they went their separate ways. We go back to scenes from the nursing home at intervals and then to the story of Noah and Allie as Noah writes, doing overseas duty in World War II and both have different romantic feelings when Allie wins to oblige her new love interests.
It is near the end of the movie that we learn whether Noah and Allie will get back together again or not. Then the mystery of the characters is revealed, and we can finally tie up all the loose parts before reaching the conclusion.
My conclusion
Although my age (senior citizen) and stage makes me particularly partial to this film, there is something for all ages. enjoy when most of the movie’s action revolves not around elderly patients but with young Noah and Allie and their whirlwind romance(s) in their late teens and early twenties. It is the development of a good character; I felt a real connection with these young people and grew to love them personally before the film. This movie would probably be more geared towards a female audience.
This is a solid film in appreciation and romance, emotional and emotional. He held my attention; he had a good mixture of humor and drama; I spared the actors and added a loop of mystery in the corner. The old lady’s identity was revealed very quickly, but I was unsure who the leader really was until the end of the movie. I was also surprised by the last scenes of the movie.
I rate Commentary maybe 3.8 to 4 out of 5. It has a PG-13 rating for some sexuality (love themes). Netflix gives a common sense rating for kids 14+, but I don’t make any age recommendations one way or the other as it’s up to parents to decide.
