Hatchet Job of the Week

10/02/2012

Romance, Drama, Funny Situations, Amnesia, Girl meets/forgets/thinks he’s a weirdo boy, Channing Tatum, Rachel McAdams – a recipe for rom-com success?

Not according to The Times where Wendy Ide defines THE VOW as

A soggy, contrived melodrama which fortunately posesses its own miraculous amnesiac qualities.

Or Nigel Andrews in the Financial Times:

Rom-tradge? That and rom-trudge: winsomely scripted, longwinded and squandering talent in small roles.

Not a vow of success then?

Read all reviews here.
