warpedbros I'm 38 minutes (wasted and unable to relive) into this mess. Where do I start... Oh! I know! How 'bout this - dialogue that is so Hallmark movie laden that I'm laughing out loud at! So very predictable. And so poorly written. Yes,it's that bad, folks. But wait, there's more! The newly born "puppies" are for SURE weaned and probably eating solid food at the time. Quite a stretch to foist off on the viewers. At this point in the film I'll give some kudos to the cinematographer for at least doing their job because it certainly looks okay. Good even! But oh. That story, execution, and the absolutely horrible dialogue.... I feel sorry for the actors given the task of making this watchable. And I could almost sense they felt it too. Oof. Avoid. You've been warned and will thank me later.

josephwchilds There is nary a moment in this film where the writing let me down. The characters are beautiful and real and reflect challenges in the human condition. There is beauty and meaning in love and making life together and this file captures the important small and big moments. The acting is profound and sublime rendering a great, yet simple, screenplay to real life and emotions. I cheered and cried through it all and felt the play of real life through it all.P.S. I never write reviews,but the negatives of this film just compelled me.

Ryan Rodriguez I always really enjoy Nick Sparks novels to films, or even just the films. I have read The Lucky One, Safe Haven, Notebook, Dear John, Longest Ride, and of course "The Choice." I am 34 year old man that is not usually a chick flick kind of Genre person but Nicholas Sparks has a rare ability to make his love stories so authentic, and he also creates another level of something I personally can relate to in his movies, especially growing up in the area of where all these movies take place and are filmed-shot at. "The Choice" really grabbed a hold of me because it reminded me of a summer I had here in Myrtle Beach, SC. The feeling that Teresa Palmer is able to portray in this film is unforgettable to me, it took me back to a summer romance that just makes me have mixed emotions of incredible lifetime experiences and how Love is so rare and magical. I mean that type of Love you see instantly here in this movie when Teresa Palmer gets Travis to change his ways and fall fast into a place he would never let his heart go before, and y'all all know that its true and we all do that or have done so in our lives! If you cannot relate to their summer fling turned forever Love, than you just have never lived in my opinion! This movie made me have a great time because it made me smile, laugh, reminisce, hurt, cry, and feel all emotions of my own life experiences all bottled up into one film. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who has had that summer fling whether it turned out like Travis and Gabby's or just stayed what it was and is a great memory to look back on like me, and smile saying I have no regrets! Maybe I am a bit of a hopeless romantic and realized that after watching this film a few times!

notmizbehaven I was looking for a good movie on Amazon Prime, this one had 5 stars so thought it would be pretty good. The first 15 minutes are completely predictable - like they used a romance movie template. The girl's dog, which appears to be a golden retriever and looks much too old to have puppies, is pregnant and she blames his dog. Supposedly she's only lived next door a few days. Miraculously her dog has puppies within a week or so (should have been 2 months). she desperately runs to his house for help (he's a veterinarian). He comes over to help with the birth - she disappears, then they cut back to the dog. And, imagine that - the dog had chihuahuas - yep, not even newborn ones, but ones with wide open eyes, tails wagging, and ears in the air. I'd suspect they were at least 6 months old.Had to quit watching, I'm embarrassed for the production company and director.
