When former high school sweethearts Dawson and Amanda (James Marsden and Michelle Monaghan) meet at a loved one's funeral 20 years after tragedy separated them, their love is reignited. As they recall and relive the past, they come to a deeper understanding about the choices they've made. Also starring Luke Bracey and Liana Liberato, and featuring beautiful scenery along with music by Lady Antebellum, The Best of Me is a powerfully romantic story of love, hope and second chances.

Just classic Nicholas Sparks, or rather a film based on his work. It's well set up, and there are interesting characters you root for, but towards the end, it just gets messed up. Of course, it just has to be dramatic, heart-wrenching, and tearful, because otherwise, it just won't work. The ending is an annoying construct that I outright disliked.
