Leave your thoughts about The Vow.
| The PlaylistKimber MyersThe film isn't as bad as what it looks like--the Chinatown knockoff equivalent of a Nicholas Sparks movie--but that doesn't mean that those outside the target audience won't find it a painful experience. |
| Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Alberta)Brian GibsonSo full of trite phrases, clichéd moments and uncool coolness (she has a tattoo on her back!), it's mind-wiping. I vow to forgive this movie, just to forget it faster. |
| Spectrum (St. George, Utah)Bruce BennettNeither particularly romantic nor comedic, nonetheless represents a middling love story that should suit most of its intended audience relying on the chemistry of its stars. |
| VogueNathan HellerAfter a cringe-worthy first third, The Vow does manage to hit a decent rom-com stride, exploring the sheer arbitrariness of self-realization. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderThe germs of a few good ideas reside within the bowels of The Vow, but the movie is too preoccupied with pushing chick-flick buttons to cultivate them. |
| MovieFreak.comSara Michelle FettersI enjoyed just about every second of it, this story - inspired by a real event - keeping me captivated no matter how many times the script came perilously close to jumping the shark or falling off the rails. |
| New York ObserverRex ReedThe Vow is not exactly a woman's picture. It's more about how a man falls in love, loses his love and gives up everything in life to focus on regaining his love. Maybe it's a woman's picture from a male point of view. However you slice it, it's a welcome loaf-far from perfect, but as filling as a home-cooked meal. |
| Film School RejectsBrian SalisburyThanks Mr. Screenwriter, but I don't need emotional subtitling. |
| Village VoiceNick PinkertonThe Vow makes the least of its concept, refusing to acknowledge that a love need not be perfect to merit holding on to. |
| Entertainment WeeklyLisa SchwarzbaumIt's a tragedy, really: According to the hapless team who made the movie, Our Paige is a relatively interesting young liberal who knows her own mind before the accident and a rather tedious, girlish conservative who fusses about keeping her hair smooth afterwards. |
