Dear John carefully distills selected elements of human experience and reduces them to a sweet and digestible syrup. It may not be strong medicine, but it delivers an effective, pleasing dose of pure sentiment and vicarious heartache.Full Review

Hallström's approach to the material is tasteful and restrained to a fault.Full Review

Ironically, they make the bond between John and Savannah look so natural that the ''dear John'' turn in their relationship makes even less sense than it does in the book.Full Review

You promised only a slim plot, tidy morals and lovers with quaking loins. It was fun while it lasted.Full Review

Ultimately, the story feels as if it's killing time before throwing the next hurdle at the couple.Full Review
