Quote:
The Last Song is a 2010 American coming-of-age drama film developed alongside the Nicholas Sparks novel by the same name. The film was directed by Julie Anne Robinson in her feature film directorial debut and co-written by Sparks and Jeff Van Wie. The Last Song stars Miley Cyrus, Greg Kinnear, Kelly Preston and Liam Hemsworth and follows a troubled teenager as she reconnects with her estranged father and falls in love during a summer in a quiet Southern beach town. The film is distributed by Touchstone Pictures.

Sparks was approached to write both the film's screenplay and the novel. Sparks completed the screenplay in January 2009, prior to the completion of the novel, making The Last Song his first script to be optioned for film. The setting, originally North Carolina like the novel, changed to Georgia after states campaigned for months to host production. Upon beginning production in Tybee Island, Georgia and nearby Savannah, The Last Song became the first movie to be shot and set in Tybee Island. Filming lasted from June 15 to August 18, 2009 with much of it occurring on the island's beach and pier. The Last Song was originally scheduled for wide release on January 8, 2010, but has since been postponed to March 31, 2010.

This is atrocious. ;) Despite the fact that I wanted to see it, it was incredibly boring. I'm sure in the hand of a better director and two new leads, the film would have been a nice little tearjerker. But with Miley Cyrus and the lead guy as the lead (I don't even care to look his name up, that's how awful he was) it was a silly, hilarious movie. Miley Cyrus needs to quit acting.. now. She was just horrific.

5/10 (C-)

Pretty much what one would expect from this type of movie. Miley was tolerable. Greg Kinnear and the little brother were both solid.

B-/C+
