Wow I wanted to like this movie.
Wow, I didn't.
Another review I saw sums it up so I'll paste it here: "I thought it would be mediocre-but-watchable, which is a perfectly good category when that’s what you’re in the mood for. This movie is not, as it turns out, watchable. Not even several scenes where Josh Duhamel is shirtless and one scene with an Unexpectedly Drenching (But In A Romantic Way) Rainstorm could save Safe Haven. Linear time ceased to have meaning and I’m pretty sure I aged fifteen years in the hour and fifty-five minutes it took for this movie to—blessedly—come to an end."
^ @ OP: seconded!
