Movie Review: “Safe Haven” is the typical chick flick

Movie Review: Safe Haven is the typical chick flick

"Safe Haven" is based on the book by the same name by Nicholas Sparks.
“Safe Haven” is based on the book by the same name by Nicholas Sparks.
Safe Haven. Nicholas Sparks. And of course, Josh Duhamel. Every single one of these words inspires minor butterflies in almost every girls stomach, whether they’d admit it or not.

The movie itself was… okay.

I mean what can you expect. It’s pretty much the definition of a chick flick, which was exactly what I knew it would be and what I wanted from it. Even so, I thought it had some really good moments.

For instance, I completely didn’t expect the ending. Maybe that’s because I’m an idiot, because these movies are usually so predictable. Oh, well. I still thought it was interesting.

The big main problem I had with the movie (and frankly with every Nicholas Sparks movie) was the clothes. Seriously, Julianne Hough? You are not allowed to look good in shorts and a t-shirt and the occasional baggy sweater. It is simply not fair for everyone else. Also for some reason her hair looks good all the time, even when she’s running from the police.

All I can say is that if I was running from the police, my hair would not look good.

And I’m proud of that.

But, even with the annoyingly effortless beauty of the star, I thought it was an alright movie. I would maybe see it again. For free.
