#Thelast song rating movie#

It wasn’t a great movie, but it was a pretty good one made better by an excellent performance from Richard Jenkins. And this one isn’t good, it’s impossibly average. It’s all here, but the difference is that some are good and some aren’t. The beach scenes, the hospital scenes, the very large house-by-the-beach scenes, the party/wedding scenes where a confrontation takes place, the letters sent to a loved one that remain unopened, the sad/happy ending, the family secret, etc. If you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all as they all follow the same formula. It is what it is, and that is an adaptation of a Nicholas Sparks novel. He’s like a younger carbon-copy of Channing Tatum in Dear John, and Tatum, who’s not the greatest actor either, is arguably more talented. So long as he looks good without a shirt on, acting ability is allowed to go out the window. Liam Hemsworth plays the love interest, and it’s a pretty disposable role. I don’t like to criticize the acting ability of a child, so this will be the only mention of young Coleman. Now Bobby Colemam plays her younger brother. It’s not that Cyrus can’t act, and she does pull off the role to a certain degree, but she just doesn’t have the maturity and she’s never proven herself as an actress to fully pull it off. The father is played by the very talented Greg Kinnear, but put it this way – even he can’t save the film. Miley Cyrus plays Ronnie – an angry teenaged girl who is sent with her younger brother (Bobby Coleman) to live with their father over the summer. For everyone else, this is contrived, cloying and predictable, but worst of all kind of boring.

The Last Song is actually a pretty good movie – for its target demographic. (l to r) Greg Kinnear, Bobby Coleman, Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth watch as baby turtles hatch in The Last Song.
