Might provoke the urgent need for three handkerchiefs or half a box of Kleenex. [Full review in Spanish]

| Aug 4, 2022

Miley Cyrus moves into a "dramatic" role - but acts like she's been created using CGI.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 19, 2021

Saved from failure largely through the efforts of Kinnear.

| Original Score: 1.0/4.0 | Sep 13, 2020

A story of life, death, transition, growth and above all, love of family, it is impossible not to be swept into the emotion and heart of The Last Song.

| Nov 15, 2019

It has too many verses and dramatic flourishes, including more than a few eye-rolling embellishments, but The Last Song hits enough right notes to induce laughter, tears and fond feelings toward families and first loves.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 13, 2018

Two pretty teenagers, trying to out-Christ each other.

| Nov 6, 2014

A predictable but sweet old-fashioned teen romance.

| Original Score: 3.0/5 | Dec 25, 2012

Cyrus and Hemsworth... represent some kind of theoretical low for how terrible two romantic leads can be, together and separately.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Apr 21, 2012

| Original Score: C | Feb 18, 2012

It's an entire season's worth of a teen soap opera crammed into a feature film.

| Feb 10, 2012

Here's the revelation: Miley Cyrus is a really interesting movie star in the making, with an intriguing echo-of-foghorn speaking voice, and a scuffed-up tomboyish physicality (in the Kristen Stewart mode) that sets her apart from daintier girls.

| Original Score: B | Sep 7, 2011

The latest in a growing number of weepy films based on Nicholas Sparks novels that don't come anywhere close to The Notebook.

| Aug 31, 2011

This film is kind of a brilliant move on the part of the Cyrus Corporation.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Apr 4, 2011

How do I find thee ridiculous, The Last Song? Let me count the ways...[Blu-ray]

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Aug 16, 2010

As a vehicle to extend the Miley Cyrus $$$billion$$$ dollar phenomenon of pre-teen fandom into a young adult starlet of seventeen, no production value was denied. But it ain't this year's discovery!

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 5, 2010

A melodrama that's aimed at teen girls, but the cinematography and performances make it palatable for others as well--if you don't mind someone toying with your emotions.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 29, 2010

This is piano-key-tinkling melodrama that pulls out just about every cliché in the book.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jul 4, 2010

An obvious bid for the teen queen to extend beyond her comfort zone only to then clearly show her limits and need for further development.

| Original Score: 0/4 | May 16, 2010

As Nicholas Sparks adaptations go, this one's both endearingly join-the-dots and surprisingly un-crass.

| Original Score: 2/5 | May 6, 2010
