I read the book A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks before I want to see the movie. I am unfortunately disappointed with the movie because of its lack of direction in accordance with the book. The movie left out a couple of key points that were in the book. I thought Hollywood changed A Walk to Remember in order to fit the "Hollywood" status that movies have become today. Is Hollywood to afraid to put the Bible in a movie that should have it in it? Was Jaime's faith not important enough to really leave it out as they did. They missed the mark on the movie dealing with the real meaning behind faith and salvation. I also think they misinterpreted the character of Jaime for most of the movie.
If you have not read the book yet and go see the movie, you will probably really like it. It is very entertaining and worth the viewing. If you really want the whole story behind the characters, read the book because it is much more emotional, romantic, and developing than the movie. I would just have to conclude with what I have emphasized earlier: This is a great story that Hollywood missed the mark on and really ruined it all.
