The Vow: My Review

On Friday, my husband took me to see "The Vow" and I went into the movie with low expectations since it had poor reviews. To my surprise the theater was packed with every seat taken.
We barely got a good seat as well.


Also, let me remind you that I don't cry at movies. Honestly! I didn't cry watching "The Notebook", "Titanic", " Marley & Me" and the list goes on. I've just never been the type to cry at movies.

I hate to admit this but I cried like a little baby watching this flick.
TRUST ME .... I was trying my hardest to hold back the tears.

What made me cry?

I think it's the fact that I'm a newlywed. Also, because the story is TRUE!! In 1993 the real life couple, were only married a few weeks when they both got into a severe car accident. This left the wife with no recollection of meeting, falling in love with or marrying her husband. It was heartbreaking to watch.

I'm not sitting here to tell you it's Oscar worthy.
I just think it was a good flick to watch and to feel for this real life couple.

Let me know what you think!
