It's hard to make a very accurate comparison of Miley/Ronnie since the movie was almost nothing like the book...it's hard to tell if it was her portrayal of Ronnie or the screenplay of her was what ruined it.
I had hope going in, since I didn't like Ronnie in the beginning of the book. But she never grows as a person and redeems herself in the movie like she does in the book, so I still didn't like her by the end.


She SHOULD be the perfect Ronnie considering that the Cyrus family approached Nicholas Sparks to write the book/movie so that it could do for Miley's career what A Walk to Remember did for Mandy Moore's career.
I mean, Miley even got to name the character she played.
You'd expect Miley to be perfectly at the character.
Personally I wasn't as impressed with her in the role as I was expecting to be.
But she didn't do a bad job. I think my expectations were just too high.


I've never been a huge fan of Mileys but every since this movie, i have kind of grown a little attached.

same!!!!!!!!!!!


I agree



I mean, Miley had the perfect look for Ronnie but not her character. I mean we're all so used to see her in Hannah Montana joking around that when you watch The Last Song, your expectations lower about Miley's acting skills


I haven't seent the movie yet, but have been meaning to. So should I still see it or will I be too disappointed?


Yes, more then agreed!






Good story from Nicholas but Miley destroyed the Movie.

Well, to be fair, I think the writers ruined the movie pretty thoroughly. Miley was just one more bad decision.





Some of her acting was horrid, I'll admit. She definitely could've used more experience and coaching before taking on a dramatic/romantic role. But I haven't seen the movie in a while, so I don't really remember. I remember just a few really horrible line deliveries.


I read the book first and I absolutely loved it! I could see Miley in the role of Ronnie. I waited a year or more before seeing the movie.
I was, as always, disappointed by the movie. My disappointment in the movie was so overwhelming that Miley's performance was not the worst part of the film. I think she could have done better, but I think the film, when compared to the book, didn't give her a lot to work with.
I really wanted to see the character of the priest portrayed in the movie. He was such an important character in the book, that I couldn't believe he was dropped in the movie.
I think I'll just stick to my ban on movies where I read the book. It's less disappointing.
