Apr 2, 2019 · There are three things Nicholas Sparks knows how to do exceptionally well when it comes to storytelling: stir up emotions, set a beautiful scene, and crush readers' spirits as soon as they become invested in the characters. The author's formula has clearly worked. In 1993, he published his first and most revered novel, The Notebook.

- The Choice (2016) A more recent — and perhaps, the most forgettable — film in the Sparks oeuvre, "The Choice" cast Benjamin Walker and Teresa Palmer as its leading lovers, telling the tale of a complicated love triangle between two neighbors (Walker and Palmer) and the woman's current boyfriend (Tom Welling), as an irresistible attraction threatens to ruin the lives of all involved.
- Safe Haven (2013) Nicholas Sparks films have long been the access point for stars looking to establish a cinematic foothold, and "Safe Haven" was part of a Hollywood blitzkrieg lunched by "Dancing With the Stars" vet Hough — who made the Christina Aguilera/Cher film "Burlesque," the "Footloose" remake, the Tom Cruise dud "Rock of Ages" and this film all in the span of about three years, but hasn't done much film since.
- The Last Song (2010) When it came time for Miley Cyrus to make her live action film debut, and take on her first real adult role, she followed the Mandy Moore blueprint with this installment of the Sparks cinematic universe, alongside Liam Hemsworth (who she would later marry in real life) — also, at the time, taking on the most sizable role of his career.
- The Lucky One (2012) Another Sparks movie about a military veteran, "The Lucky One" is focused on a U.S. Marine named Logan Thibault (played by Zac Efron) who finds a photograph of a woman while serving in Iraq.

In ‘The Best of Me,’ the ninth film based on a novel written by Sparks, we encounter Dawson Cole (James Marsden) and Amanda Collier (Michelle Monaghan), two former high school lovers who reunite in their small hometown after twenty years apart through the death and funeral of a close friend. We are presented with flashbacks of their love story as t...
As with many of his stories, ‘The Choice’ sets once again two characters in a warm neighborhood of the sunny South where tragedy and love will cross their paths and bring them together through typical and repeated romanticism. Not that it can’t be entertaining to those who enjoy this style of cinematic experiences but its lack of originality shows ...
For all the Zack Efron fans, here’s the movie to watch as he portrays a US Marine serving in Iraq who finds a photograph of a beautiful blonde woman smiling and keeps it as his good luck charm. When he returns home, he makes it his mission to find the face who has unknowingly protected him. After finding her, Logan (Efron) and Beth (Taylor Schillin...

There, she meets Alex (Josh Duhamel),...
In this romantic drama, we stumble upon Richard Gere and Diane Lane back together for their third collaboration. Their performances are great and help the flaws of the story construction seem less evident. The emotional connection the viewer is able to form with the characters and their sorrows and joys is stronger and more significant in this Spar...
In The Longest Ride,’ we are presented with two parallel dramatic love stories, one from the present and one from the past, set 70 years ago. Luke (Scott Eastwood) and Sophia (Britt Robertson), two young people, have a “first-sight” experience and go on a date. On their way home, they rescue an old man stuck in his car after an accident, and while ...
‘Message In a Bottle’ is able to take us on a more serious and believable romance than most of Nicholas Sparks’ other novels and films. It is also a more beautiful and emotional plot that grabs the audience tighter and for longer. It’s about a woman (Robin Wright Penn) who finds a love letter inside a bottle, half buried in the sand, and is so stru...
Welcome another coming-of-age romantic drama, highly predictable yet entertaining and heart-warming to watch. Starring Shane West and Mandy Moore as the two teenage love-birds, the story of ‘A Walk to Remember’ reveals a romantic encounter between a rebellious trouble-maker seeking help from a geeky outcast girl who, despite being laughed at, stand...
Nicholas Sparks often uses written letters as an important element in his stories, which we can again find in ‘Dear John,’ occupying a central part of the romance and its pulse to move forward. The performances are great, the plot is interesting and grabbing, and the likable characters transmit emotion and feeling. We certainly root for them, and i...
