An unexpectedly fine cinema visit. I hadn't read the book and only had a rough outline of what the film would be about, so I can only rate the film, and it worked decently for me. The whole thing is pulled off by Blake Lively, who is all personality on screen and is just fun to watch, but the story also reeled me in decently, even though it's actually pretty ordinary on the whole. It has romance, it has drama, the tension in the climactic scenes is handled perfectly, and that "pressure" scene is so well done that my heart was racing, and likewise the reunions, break-ups and all the elements around it kept me entertained and managed to grab my heart in places. A very surprising piece that I wasn't expecting much from, but which actually worked more than well in almost every aspect. Satisfaction.
