Very disappointing

marsabgab

score 3/10

I know, that movie based on the book doesn't need to necessarily cover it step by step...but showing totally different facts and making it sound like a romantic comedy with a very happy end?No... For me the book was both tragic and entertaining at times... But there was nothing "they lived happily ever after"in it.. Rosie and Alex missed so many chances ( as it happens in life) and they finally had courage to be together in their 50's... And yes- that was the very happy moment for me as a reader and I almost jumped when they finally got together...But the movie didn't gave me that jump... I have ready many books and then watched many movies based on them books...and that's why I can honestly state here: Read the book ( I think it's one of the best C.Aherns books) and watch the movie..But don't expect nothing special...
