The Last Song

Do you ever really forget your first heartbreak?


The Last Song
A rebellious teen is forced to spend the summer with her divorced dad. It's not long before she meets a handsome local lad, and after a bumpy start, they become rather close friends (what else did you expect?). However as this is based on a Nicholas Sparks book, the Grim Reaper puts in an appearance to complicate things, just as our pretty heroine is making progress both romantically and with her dad.

eye Weekly
Mira Saraf quote iconThere are punches of humour and hints that Cyrus, with some work, can play darker characters than expected. However, as the old saying goes, this jack-of-all-trades masters none.

Tomatometer quote iconAs shamelessly manipulative as any Nicholas Sparks production, The Last Song is done no favors by its miscast and overmatched star, Miley Cyrus.
