Ellen A. Kim of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer gave a decent B- review for the Mandy Moore starring ‘A Walk to Remember’. Kim said, “What saves the film is the chemistry between the two leads. West plays an extension of his television character but does a convincing job with Landon’s transformation. Moore, in dyed-brown hair and baggy jumpers for her first leading role, affably eschews the mug-and-pose yearnings of her music videos (she slips only when she sings).”
The review at seattlepi.com has since been removed.
