The Choice – Bis zum letzten Tag: Directed by Ross Katz. With Benjamin Walker, Teresa Palmer, Maggie Grace, Alexandra Daddario. Travis and Gabby first meet as neighbors in a small coastal town and wind up in a relationship that is tested by life’s most defining events.

“Veterinarian Travis Shaw (Benjamin Walker) falls in love with his new neighbor and medical student Gabby (Teresa Palmer). They marry, have kids and there is an accident and one of them has to make a life and death Choice. Hey, you did see the title of this, right?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eJust like you need – from time to time – a really good, tasty cheeseburger you also need – from time to time- to watch a really good love story to let you know there is more to life than that really good, tasty cheeseburger. (stop already, Iu0026#39;m getting hungry) Having relative newcomers star in this makes everything seem more real than having seasoned actors star because we are not sure what the newcomers are going to do next. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis goes along at a good pace as the relationship builds with good flirty dialogues and really good serious dialogues later on. If truth be told we see that the serious dialogues prove to be the real winners in here. Also, the intensity in Travisu0026#39; eyes from time to time when he looks at Gabby reminded me of the intensity of Bubba Watsonu0026#39;s (pro golfer) eyes as he contemplates his next shot. And it is here we see something more real than was anticipated. And, of course, because Gabby is very pretty, the chemistry between them is spot on. (you falling in love again?)u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNotables: It was nice to see Tom Welling as Ryan, the boyfriend before Travis. I hardly recognized him as he had bulked up to such a degree he could now play Superman (he played a young Clark Kent in the TV Smallville series). And Tom Wilkinson as Shep, Travisu0026#39; doctor father. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is very enjoyable and yet, we know an accident will happen later on and someone has to make a choice and everything is intensified. Keep a box of Kleenex handy as you are going to need it. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis movie is on par with THE BEST OF ME, by the same author Nicholas Sparks. (9/10)u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eViolence: Yes, the accident. And Ryan does punch Travis. Sex: Yes, but nothing graphic. Nudity: No. Language: No.”
