First off, to everyone, -DO NOT read the critic's review!!!- He/she is dense, naive, and incapable of understanding the dual-storyline. The critic is inaccurate on the storyline and twists the plot incorrectly. While the movie is depressing in some sections, the overall message and acting is amazing and sweet.
This movie is one of the best non-comical romance movies I've seen in a long time. It takes an average guy (a guy not in a million dollar job or in a hard to believe situation) and follows the love story.
I'm a 21 year old male and I teared up at numerous points. The movie will move you and shake you. 5 Stars.
