    Safe Haven - Very Well Done

    by ittssmee

    Actually went to see another movie as the review we heard for this one was not good - fortunately we got the time wrong for the other movie and decided to give Safe Haven a chance. So glad we did - both Josh and Julianne were very believable in their roles - the scenery was beautiful and the story line was excellently done. Well worth your time and money - my husband enjoyed it as well - so guys - don't think its just a chick flick! I'd sit through it again - it was that good! I'd give this one 5 stars!

    Safe Haven

    by sburnell

    It was a good movie. As usual, the book has much more detail, but if you haven't read it before seeing the movie, it still has a good story. We enjoyed it very much..

    More than just a "chick-flick"

    by mooVsR4me

    Yes it's a love story that will require a quick dab with a kleenex. It's also a bit of a suspense drama that unfolds a little unexpectedly. Then there's the ending which is exciting, and it all gets tied up with a neat little bow at the very end. Definitely worth your time and money to go see.

    drawn out

    by

    Took too long to introduce the romance. Too much mystery, you're very confused for half the film. The two leads had very little chemistry. Okay movie, very underwhelming.

    Safe Haven

    by GranmaLynn

    Great movie. Did not exactly follow the book, but the main story held true. There was definitely good chemistry with Julianne and Josh.I was not disappointed.

    Predictable

    by

    It was a 'sweet' movie....but, absolutely predictable. I had not read the book prior to seeing the movie; however, I had the plot twists figured out before the movie was even half way over. Not saying it is a bad movie....because it isn't. Josh Duhamel & Julianne Hough are very likable. It is just not a full price ticket movie.....easily watched at home.

    Adequate Film with awful ending

    by sinclair506

    The film was unexceptional but adequate throughout. I would have given the film a so-so rating were it not for the final scene of the film. The ending is just horrible and changes my feeling about the film.

    Great ending!!!!!

    by ponyhop

    Movie was very sweet and at some points had you on the edge of your seat. Romance , drama and action all in one. Even a little bit of a thriller. Could never guess the ending of this movie. This is what made it the best movie I have seen in a while!

    Not believable

    by wodiej61

    Me and my partner saw it and she was in an abusive marriage. A woman would not trust men for a long time after getting abused. And especially not in a few weeks.

    Safe Haven

    by thomasjvt

    Definitely a chick flick but interesting enough. A cross between "sleeping with the enemy" and "the note book' though not as stimulating nor comprehensive as either.

    It was a warm movie on a cold winter day.

    by deanellis01

    The movie plot is about as warn as my 20 year old lawn tracter, but just like my tractor it makes the cut. This movie, coupled with a warm diner on a cold night was just so timely.
    Actually I could have taken my 10 year old granddaughter had I known the move was that safe. I rate this movie a go because I went, and I'm glad I did.

    Great ending

    by seal8280

    Knowing the type of books written by Nicholas Sparks, and having seen a lot of his movies, they usually leave me sad at the end with an exception or two. Nevertheless, I saw this movie and liked it for the most part, but the best part was the ending which I found very touching and which made the whole movie a plus for me.

    For the Romantics

    by BratDevil1715

    I do have to admit that the book was def better than the movie, but the movie was good too. It was chopping in some parts and I wish the characters were developed better as they were n the book, but if you are a romantic then I would say this movie is for you.

    Love

    by

    Loved the movie, the scenery, the chemistry between the actors, the story, loved how they ended it which was hard to picture in the book. I live in Wilmington NC so it was a plus to see our beautiful area.

    If you want a happy ending...

    by

    This movie is a great date movie, but definately a "chick flick". Handsome as ever, Josh Duhamel is the perfect leading male role. He is sweet and romantic. When you see him smile, you ladies will want to just sigh. Julianne Hough is beautiful and they have great chemistry together. I loved the little twist at the end.

    The story is predictable, but I still liked it. It didn't drag on and get boring, even though it was predictable. I am a sucker for romance and happy endings, so this was my kind of film. No bad language, and a tasteful love scene that doesn't show anything but kissing. I would say it is OK for all family members, but the younger ones probably won't understand it.
