Nicholas Sparks’ Dear John – Trailer

Dear Channing Tatum,

Are you about to show a good performance? After A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints I thought you had it in you, but your last few films have let me down so much. Luckily, you are paired with rising Amanda Seyfried who eclipsing her Mean Girls costars (I’m looking at you Rachel McAdams and Lindsay Lohan). It doesn’t hurt that you are going to be under the direction of veteran director Lasse Hallström. That your father in the film is played by Richard Jenkins is just the icing on the cake. So, listen everything in this film should be going in your direction. Just like G.I. Joe Nicolas Sparks novels have their own built in fan base. I’m asking as someone who really thinks you might have it in you, please don’t screw this up.

Thanks,
Blake

Genre: Drama
Starring: Amanda Seyfried, Channing Tatum, Richard Jenkins, Henry Thomas
Director: Lasse Hallström

  • My wife wants to see this movie so I guess we will, I want to se Tatum in this because he isn't dancing

  • It has a compelling story with 2 great lead roles and looks like it will be a love story worth the time to see.

  • The movie was good but when he came back to tell Seyfried and they had dinner his uniform was messed up and incorrect. How could they do that. As a former ROTC officer and a family member of Active Duty Army Officers this makes me a bit angry.

    But overall it was a good movie.
