Beautiful yet self-effacing, Katie seems determined to avoid forming personal ties until a series of events draws her into two reluctant relationships: one with Alex, a widowed store owner with a kind heart and two young children; and another with her plainspoken single neighbor, Jo. Despite her reservations, Katie slowly begins to let down her guard, putting down roots in the close-knit community and becoming increasingly attached to Alex and his family. But even as Katie begins to fall in love, she struggles with the dark secret that still haunts and terrifies her . . . a past that set her on a fearful, shattering journey across the country, to the sheltered oasis of Southport. With Jo’s empathic and stubborn support, Katie eventually realizes that she must choose between a life of transient safety and one of riskier rewards . . . and that in the darkest hour, love is the only true safe haven.
Plot: A young woman with a mysterious past lands in Southport, North Carolina where her bond with a widower forces her to confront the dark secret that haunts her.

Good romance with suspense: 7,25
I will not compare this movie with the novel on which it is based because I have not read it. “Safe haven” is not innovator at all, it is one more romantic drama with a quiet predictable ending, but at the same time, with some mystery and some twists that kept me amused and paying attention during its entire length. It is not as good as “The notebook”, but it is better than “Dear John” and “The lucky one”, in my opinion. Anyway, these four are very alike to each other and based on the respective novels written by the same author. Lasse Hallstrom proofs again he is an efficient director of dramas (I cannot say versatile, because he has not directed more genres ). He has been able to take advantage of the cast, which is not particularly great, but good enough. The photography is one of the best elements of the movie. It is mainly located in Northern Carolina (in a quiet coastal village) and I really liked the environment. The pace is fluid. It made me pay attention from the beginning. It does not obviously have the same pace that action movies should have. The plot contains just a few good unexpected twists and some flashbacks. The plot is easy to follow and adds no confusion, which is good. The acting is good enough. I am not a fan of any actor from this mo vie, but they all did a decent job and are believable in their respective roles. Josh Dushamel and Julianne Hough are the two leading ones, specially her, who is not famous at all. In conclusion, those who really like this sort of movies will surely enjoy this one even though it is not a top romantic drama. The intrigue and photography are added value. The cast is not great, but good enough. The film is well-paced, but it is not original at all. 7,25.

A Love That Stands The Test of Time!
As human nature would have it, it’s not a rare thing to fall in and out of love a number of times in one person’s lifetime. But, then, there are those even more rare cases of finding the one true love that may occur only once in a person’s life and lasting even longer than a lifetime. Relativity Media’s “Safe Haven”, directed by Lasse Hallstrom is a story about one of those such rare cases.Based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks, the story opens with a young woman, who simply goes by “Katie”, played by Julianne Hough, as she is seen fiercely escaping danger. It’s not yet revealed what the circumstances are. She resurfaces in the small, ocean side tourist town of Southport in North Carolina, which is also where the film was shot.
Her small town surroundings and the people within it embrace Katie a lot sooner than she is ready to reciprocate. One such resident being Alex (Josh Duhamel) who is a father of two and a widower of four years loosing his wife to cancer. A very guarded Katie is constantly reminded of her runaway status from, as more of her back-story is revealed, her husband who is a Boston police detective (David Lyons) in charge of locating escaped criminals.
With a small window of opportunity to get to know Alex and his family more, Katie decides to enter their lives as his kids start to grow more fond of her. However, when her husband’s detective skills lead him directly to her, a series of events results in a new awakening for Katie and Alex’s family alike where new beginnings are a welcome.
The last fifteen minutes of “Safe Haven” includes a real tear-jerker and a surprise ending is revealed. I challenge anyone to have a dry eye after that. Josh Duhamel as “Alex” and Julianne Hough as “Katie” were a perfect fit and carried the storyline perfectly.
Also very impressive performances came from child actors Noah Lomaz as “Josh”, Alex’s son, and Mimi Kirland as “Lexie”, Alex’s daughter…Full Review at HollywoodJunket.com -Hollywood Junket
