Nights In Rodanthe

Yes, I'm sure you have all heard of the Notebook... yes, I will admit to liking that one. But this one? Well...let's see...

Nights in Rodanthe is again yet another adaptation of one of Nicholas Sparks' sweet romantic stories. And the relationship between the two leads in this one is sweet, but the movie overall isn't the greatest.

The film follows Adrienne (Diane Lane), a now single mother, who loves her children, but is being forced to get back together with her husband. And Dr. Paul (Richard Gere), a father trying to hold onto the relationship with his estranged son (played by James Franco) and also cope with an accident that continues to haunt him. This is actually the reason he ends up at the guest house on the beach that Adrienne just so happens to be watching for a few days for her friend (Viola Davis).

The two leads have a wonderful time in Rodanthe (not surprising since it really is the BEST guest house I have seen in quite sometime). No really, the guest house is AMAZING! I myself cannot wait to check in ;).

Overall it's a sweet movie that will take you away for a few hours. The end was not so great in my opinion, but I'm willing to overlook this just so long as I get some more sweeping shots of the amazing guest house on the beach! =)

I give it a 6/10 for the more then beautiful location.

The film stars Diane Lane, Richard Gere (whom both last worked together in Unfaithful... now there's a great film, and prior to that a little film called The Cotton Club. Remember that one? It had Nicolas Cage in it ;D), James Franco, and Viola Davis.

The films runs 97 minutes.

Happy viewing everyone! =)
