Who'd leave Rachel McAdams
29 July 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Seriously: Who would? Even if you know what the story is here, you just know that Channing Tatum would be crazy to leave her. This of course being based on a true story. It does mean that after that incident (or rather accident, that you can feel coming even without knowing about it, but then again, that's the whole selling point of the movie, so even though I don't believe someone might not have heard of the memory loss Rachel's character goes through) we have a very sweet story coming up, where Channing could not be sweeter if tried to, even with one outburst trying to undermine that.

The sacrifices he takes are really big and make Rachels character look almost unsympathetic for being so stone cold most of the time. But of course both actors really deliver on the acting front, so that the movie does convince in the end. One of the better romantic movies, that relies mostly on their two good leads.
