    Storyline

    Edit
    In a small coastal town, the veterinarian Travis Shaw works with his father Shep and is very close to his beloved sister Steph. Travis is very successful with the women and dates Monica every now and then. When the resident Gabby Holland moves to the next door house, she initially believes he is a pretentious man. But when her boyfriend Ryan MacCarthy, who is fellow doctor in the same hospital where she works, needs to travel to another city, Gabby and Travis have a relationship and fall in love with each other. Out of the blue, Ryan returns and proposes to marry her. Now Gabby has to make a choice between her two loves. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The Choice (2016) is Nicholas Sparks' eleventh book made into a movie.
    • Goofs
      As Gabby studies, she quizzes her dog "Do you know how many liters of blood the circulatory system processes per day on average?" She answers herself "Twenty! That's right!"

      Gabby is incorrect. A person has about 5 liters of blood. If Gabby was right, then the entire volume of blood only circulates four times in a day, or once every six hours. The correct figure is about 6,000 liters a day.
    • Quotes

      Travis: Why do you make it so hard for me to flirt with you?

      Gabby: Because if I made it easy you wouldn't flirt with me anymore.

    Perfect cozy night with wife Chick Flick
    I usually don't write reviews, but this movie was fantastic. The movie pulled at your heart throughout the entire movie. Its funny, sexy, and sad with a case of real life thrown in for good measure. The characters are fantastic, and the setting on the coast if beautiful. Did you ever have that real love in your live, and you could feel it slipping away, well this is the movie for you. What did you do to get it back, or to try and get it back? Did you walk away and say it wasn't meant to be, or did you fight for it? Did you give it your all? Well, take a watch of this one, and see what happens. You will be glad you went for a spin. Be prepared for a roller coaster for ups and downs on the emotional scale. In the end, can you make The Choice?
