Review: The Vow

I’ve been very excited about this movie ever since I saw the trailer. Who wouldn’t?

I mean, it has everything that a girl would love: it’s a love story, it has amnesia somewhere on the story, some sweet dialogs and of course CHANNING TATUM! He would surely hunt me forever.

So finally, G.p and I watched it for our pre-Valentine date. (Note: We don’t have an actual Valentine Date.)

I’m so inspired specially knowing that it is based on an actual love story. That it is not just a product of someone’s wild imagination. That sometime ago, someone has actually experience those and was able to live a happy ever after.

There are scenes in the movie that made G.p and I cry a little. It was just that, you really could feel how much the guy loved his wife and you could feel his pain. Like a true blue emo and hopeless romantic, I was really affected by every scene.

I hear some didn’t much like it but I honestly do. The movie simply shows the story of two people. Their struggles and how they were able to win over it. It reminds us that no matter how much a mind tries to forget, the heart would surely remember.

We have loved once or twice or more and we all know know how great it is to fall in love. And sometimes, not all love story is as easy as 1-2-3. Most of the time, love is a war, a battlefield. You have to fight for it, you have to win it over, you have to gain it, to deserve it. That most of the time, you have to fight to keep what you have.

To all of you guys, here’s a little something. The movie is full of quotable quotes and since it’s my post-Valentine treat for you guys, fall in love with me all over again. Happy Hearts Day guys! Spread Love!!!
