Movie #321 "Dear John" was a nice romantic movie --- surprisingly, not a lot of plot, and a lot of it (a lot) is letter writing between the two leads, but with those negatives aside, there are lots of good things to be said about it. First, the ability of the two leads ---- the chemistry is great and they both make the characters very real --- Richard Jenkins as the odd dad, excellent, and what a wonderful choice in casting Henry Thomas in a major role here --- love him (ever since playing Elliott in ET) and he helped make the movie very enjoyable for me to watch. But if you expect a lot of story, don't look here. It's really heavy on the romance (I don't mean love scenes, but showing a relationship grow, break up,grow again, etc.)
