After reading critic reviews, I was a little hesitant because they bombed the movie but to my surprise, I actually enjoyed it. The characters were extremely likable and the storyline wasn't overdone. Short movie - only 1.5 hours which made me like it even more. I highly recommend it - take your girlfriends and watch this movie!
I had never read the books because the plot did not hold my interest enough. I saw the movie and it was beautiful. Every actor was well casted, the chemistry between couples was believable, and the story was well told. I started reading the books after watching it and it is even more amazing. If you like the movie and have yet to read the book, I highly recommend you do so. All four books are interesting and I cannot wait to see what they do with the movies
