And just think, all this could've been avoided if soft-spoken, dog-loving, chess-and-piano-playing, sensitively damaged Zac Efron had shaken his head shyly when Hot Single Mom assumes - for no good reason - that he's here about the ad, looked her up and down with his strong but gentle eyes and shown her the damn photo. The End.

I consider The Lucky One to be anyone that hasn't sat through this cinematic excretion.

The second Spark's film I've seen. Terribly predictable, full of awkward groping and kissing in the rain, shocker, I know. Efron's acting consisted of blank stares and conveying zero emotion while the other chick just over-acted everything.
If someone told me I had to watch this again or spend a week in a concentration camp, I'd be blowin' guards and peddlin' my rations just so I'd never have to sit through this film one more time.

Well, very much predictable, i liked the way it started, about him thinking that the picture saved his life, but then just about right from there its was just plainly predictable, nothing much interesting, as as expected some douchebag comes along to disturb the girl, blah blah blah, like i said, predictable.

Is it worth watching once, depends on your mood at the time, you feeling good then avoid it, feeling sad and lonely , heck , just watch it.

από αυτές τις ταινίες που πριν τους τίτλους αρχής ξέρεις τί θα γίνει. (το χειρότερο είδος ταινίας για μένα)

"All Glory Is Fleeting" is what Marine Sgt. Efron's back tattoo reads.

I only watched it for Zac Efron. Otherwise it was a typical Nicholas Sparks romance

Typical Nicolas Sparks story line, very predictable and sub par/ poor acting. Good for Zac Efron to get out of the children genre of movies. But he still has a ways to come, to get lead roles in successful movies

Finally a Sparks-movie where the right person dies in the end.

As every film based on a Nicholas Sparks novel, The Lucky One is cheesy. However, Efron and Schilling's Chemistry is making up for the naive script and over-sweet dialogue.

An inoffensive, inconsequential romantic drama that I was basically fine with until the last 10 minutes when the movie lost its mind and seemingly helicoptered in a super melodramatic and unintentionally hilarious climax from a completely different movie. Otherwise, the basic plot and "twists" are all predictable from the start but it's pleasant enough and more watchable than a lot of the other Nicholas Sparks adaptations.

I've never read a Nicholas Sparks novel (and I don't really ever plan to) but I have no shame in saying that the film adaptations of his stories are hands down my guiltiest pleasures.

Every once and awhile a romantic drama with a basic plot and a happy ending is exactly what you (I) need. I may be the only one but I'm really glad that simple love stories like this exist.
