At the present time, the author Nicholas Sparks wrote 23 novels, and each of them was a bestseller of the New York Times. His first novel “The Passing” was released in 1985 and immediately established itself as one of the outstanding Popromance writers in the world, who experienced broad, tragic stories about unspeaked longing, painful women and flawless rescue tunnels. His 1999 novel “A Walk to Remember” was inspired by the tragic death of his younger sister, who was killed by cancer at the age of 33. Sparks’ novels, mainly in North Carolina, are known for her calm, pastoral tones, a comprehensive melodrama and for the melodrama and for the melodrama and the frequency of wine.
Hollywood brought her hooks in Sparks in 1999 when she adapted his book “Message in a bottle” to a remarkable hit with Kevin Costner. This film earned 118 million US dollars for a budget of $ 30 million, and large film studios seem to have found a winning formula. Since then, 11 additional sparks novels have been adapted to films, and most of them were money earners. In the mid -2000s there was enormous demand for tragic romances. The youngest film based in Sparks was the TV film “Deliverance Creek” 2014, a drama in civil war with Lauren Ambrose, which was broadcast on Lifetime. Although Film adaptations of Sparks novels have fallen out of favor, the man himself continues to write HIT novels. (His latest “Counting Miracles” was published in 2024.)
Another remarkable aspect of Sparks-based films is that critics do not normally receive them well. The adaptation of “The Choice” 2016 only has an approval of 11% for rotten tomatoes (based on 83 reviews). And even his best film film has only a approval rating of 54%, based on the review of 182. As Sparks fans May Intuit was the best checked film Nick Cassavetes’ 2004 Romance “The Notebook”.

“The Notebook” was a remarkable blockbuster like “Message in a bottle”, which earned 115 million US dollars for a budget of $ 29 million. Moreso, however, became a cultural point of contact for a generation and is often seen as one of the best romances of his time (in unofficial property). “The Notebook”, which was mainly set up in 1940, tells the story of a wealthy heiress named Ellie (Rachel McAdams) and a tacit lumber mill worker named Noah (Ryan Gosling) and in the years in which they have an on-again-off -A-again romance. Ellie is really in Noah, but is afraid of his romantic intensity and his low class. While the story cycles through the Second World War, Ellie marries another man (James Marsden) and Noah continues to pine for her. Finally the couple will end together. “The Note Book” is booked by Noah and Ellie as older people (played by James Garner and Gena Rowlands) while suffering from dementia under a tragic case. The old Noah reads from a notebook with the details of her love story, hoping to restart her memories again.
Some of the reviews for “The Notebook” were pretty hard. Peter Bradshaw, who writes for the GuardianHasted the washing of the film, gave him a star (from five) and called him a shameless “Titanic” attack. “Dentistry in the Renaissance couldn’t have been more painful than to see that,” he wrote. Even the positive reviews were qualified. Desson Thompson’s assessment for the Washington Post I realized that “The Notebook” was shamelessly very juicy, but that it contained some honest, soulful performances.
This was Ryan Gosling’s first romantic role, and his image as Move star changed immediately afterwards. The film played most of the next decade on Slumber parties.
Other Nicholas Sparks adjustments
Most reviews of “The Notebook”, both positive and negative, are exactly the notebook as a manipulative, and several critics used liberal words such as “SAP” and “syrup”. The film is sticky. You can find similar criticisms in the reviews of an adjustment by Nicholas Sparks. So far, none of them were mostly loved.
As already mentioned, “The Choice” only has a consent rate of 11%, but the romance 2014 “The Best of Me” did not go much better with only 12% (based on 82 reviews). This film also played “The Notebook” actor James Marsden, although his presence was not a great success. Lasse Hallström’s “Safe Haven” With Josh Duhamel and Julianne Hough have an approval rating of 13% (based on 147 reviews). In this film, Duhamel’s character is so perfect and is so determined by the Hough character that he has invited the author of this article to shape the expression “error-free rescue stud”, the archetypal flip page for the Manic Pixie DreamGirl. (“Flawless rescue stud” is still starting.)
Sparks wrote the script for one of his film adaptations: “The Last Song” from 2010 with Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth. This film was a Sparks Smash, which earned $ 89 million for a budget of $ 20 million but also bad messages. It only has an approval rating of 21%, based on 121 reviews. It was the first film that Cyrus shot after “Hannah Montana: The Movie”, so that the audience may flow up into the cinemas just to grow up a little to grow up a little.
A total of Sparks ’11 films collapsed almost 900 million US dollars, which made him a mini industry in the 2000s and the 2010s. He has been valued since 2016 – the audience no longer seems to be in the mood for very tragic romances – but for a while he was everything.
