I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Adapted from a book, it seems like the screenwriters just sketched out enough scenes to cover the various plot points in the book, and unimaginatively. Richard Gere is too laid-back to breathe any life into the lifeless, inevitable plot progression, so it was miscast. Since there are no surprises in the story, no crisis/resolution sequences, perhaps the entire movie in flashback with narration could have saved it? I don't know.

This movie has the signature of Nicholas Sparks - romance and tragedy. It has been the same for all his works which have been made into movies - the notebook, A walk to remember, message in a bottle, dear John. Nights is no different. It's a sweet love story. Richard Gere and Diane lene depict believable characters. Full marks to both of them for the chemistry and displayed emotions. I fell for the locations of the movie and the cinematography - The inn is breathtaking with all the blue colours. What a beach location! The extra effort to make the actors wear some shade of blue all the time was clearly visible. Would have appreciated the movie more if time was invested in building up the love between richard and diane. It seemed a bit abrupt. I did feel happy when they hooked up and sad when Richard dies, but the magic of "A walk to remember" was missing. That movie really touched me...nights just missed it by inches.Overall, for a Nicholas Sparks work, I was hoping for more magic. 6.5 out of 10 for me.

There's something about movies with bratty teenagers that will always ruin a film for me. Without the teenagers, this movie reminded me so much of a cross between "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" and "Their Eyes Were Watching God" (the latter more than the first). But the bratty daughter who was super disrespectful to her mother over a divorce reminded me too much of "The Descendants," another movie with kids that need to be disciplined and talk to their parents any kind of way. Without the brat, I may have enjoyed this movie more. I watched the movie because I love Richard Gere, but what's interesting is I never believed the chemistry between him and Diane Lane's character (Adrienne Willis) when he was a stranger at a North Carolina inn. I wasn't even interested in the widowed husband. But once they separated and started writing, the plot picked up tremendously. Problem is that was almost the end of the movie. The last 20 minutes or so are five stars. The rest? Nothing to brag about.

Nights in Rodanthe is the third film to pair Richard Gere and Diane Lane after Unfaithful (2002) and The Cotton Club (1984). It is based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks.Lane plays Adrienne Willis, a woman who's marriage has fallen apart after her husband leaves her for a younger woman. Gere plays Dr. Paul Flanner, a surgeon whose life and practice crashes around him after a medical mistake with a patient. Both Willis and Flanner end up at a small end in the North Carolina coastal village of Rodanthe. Through the course of the film they fall in love and begin to heal their lives.Just as they reach the point of staying together they realize they have to go back to their separate lives. The last bit of the film focuses on their continued communication through letters.The film is a tear jerker supreme and just didn't have a satisfying ending for me. In fact I laughed out loud during the end scene not because I was happy but because it was stupid.I admit I am not the demographic for this film but if you like formalistic romance novels then this film is for you.Diane Lane is great as usual and Richard Gere is good too. The script is bumpy in parts. I read a plot summary of the book and it seemed better than the film version story wise. I also believe there is a serious editing mistake when Adrienne drives to the local market/bar in the village that should have been caught.I hope Lane and Gere try to work together again but next time stick with a meatier drama like "Unfaithful" or maybe a straight up comedy.
