June 12, 2016 - Love, Rosie

since I am really inlove with sam claflin right now, i wanted to watch another movie of his and the one I found is Love, Rosie. Its funny because I was watching and loving it at the same time that by the end of the movie I wanted to watch it again. I was so excited about the movie that I told Ate Kat (my work wife) about it and as I was telling her the plot, I remembered a book I have read in highschool and how it has the same plot except this book was done by a collection of letters, and then I just had a huge 'eureka' moment and google searched it and it turns out to be the same! I know sometimes the movie doesn't hold up against the book but on this one i actually liked the movie MORE than the book.

Though the presentation of the book is unique and really different, I liked the movie better because the story is more put together. I didnt mind reading the book then since Rosie's letters to anybody was detailed in a way that you know what exactly is going on. but the movie was better! imagine if anybody was edgy enough to do the movie as like a series of flashback with letters, like that would suck so much. The ending was amazing too. In the book it is sweet because they finally got together even though they are 80.. It was such a frustrating book because Rosie and Alex are clearly meant for each other since the beginning but they kept denying it. The movie was good 2 thumbs up! 9/10 from a yeye-not-a-movie-critic-but-gives-ratings-anyway! will watch it again!
