Ulasan
Sawyer
I adore this story!!! Especially the fact that you put SHE NEVER REGAINED HER MEMORY BACK at the end!!! What a true portrayal of love.

"Can you fall in love all over again if you lose your memory?" While the movie that best captures this idea, "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," remains unparalleled, this film is based on a true story, and the two leads are certainly easy on the eyes. Audience reactions after the screening seemed quite polarized. Personally, I find that I really need films like this – slightly melodramatic, a tad cliché, and not requiring much brainpower – to help warm up the winter chill.

Such a beautiful love story, a sweet and kind-hearted couple. Rachel McAdams was simply born for these kinds of pure romance films. Her smile and her beauty probably fit everyone's aesthetic and imagination! With movies like this, often the selection of the right actors equates to a large part of its success, just like in this film. Even though the story is filled with sadness, the healing happy ending will always come. What more can you ask for from a date movie? ★★☆

Everyone wants her to be who they want her to be, but only he just wants her to be who she wants to be. This kind of love transcends everything; it's destined.

The Vow masterfully explores the fluidity of memory and identity, a philosophical puzzle wrapped in a gripping narrative. Where does our sense of self lie—within the fragmented pieces of our memories or in the connections we've cultivated? This film not only delves into the complexities of love and loss but also challenges us to reconsider what it means to truly know someone, even after life-altering events. A haunting yet hopeful reflection on the resilience of the human spirit.
