That can’t hurt in today’s puerile and downright stupid teen movie market. Moore’s character is also clear about liking herself for who she is, regardless of how often the “cool kids” make fun of her. Jamie is a Christian who actually manages not to look evil, one-dimensional, hypocritical, or silly, though her father is a bit hard-nosed (but gets better). Most of their friends should drive right off a cliff, but Landon and Jamie are actually pretty cool, with brains, ethics, and goals. The good news is that the film presents main character teenagers who are actually not annoying to hear speak. It’s very much like most romances, in fact, with very little to differentiate it. Sound familiar? A little like Love Story perhaps? Well, it is.
