The Last Song (2010)
Short review: Miley Cyrus stars as a teenager who reconnects with her father years after her parents go through a nasty divorce in this adaptation of the Nicholas Sparks novel. The emotional element of "The Last Song" was pivotal, as it is with most Nicolas Sparks book-to-screen projects. "The Last Song" was contrived, cliché and lackluster. Most of the characters were vapid and empty, the sad ending, and the love story ,were forced. Miley Cyrus did a fair job of portraying Ronnie Miller. She got better as the movie progressed but still didn't quite reach the level that Rachael McAdams did in "The Notebook". Liam Hemsworth was fine, and definitely pretty to look at. He has great charm, but he didn't have a lot to work with. The highlight for me was really Bobby Coleman as Ronnie's brother, Jonah. He was so emotional, so authentic and so likable, he literally lighted up the screen every time he appeared on it. Visually, "The Last Song" was nice to look at, thanks to its beautiful scenery and settings, and yet, I thought it needed more vividness and bright colors, to make it feel more lively. Cheesy, yet sometimes warm-hearted tear-jerker, "The Last Song" is an overly melodramatic love story, filled to the brim with clichés.
