I broke down when he cried by his father in the hospital... It was so sad.. :(

The perfect example of romance movie. No rough sex, No lots of kissing scenes. Just two people proving that romance movie can give you chills and make you fall in love without those touchy scenes. I love the casts Amanda is such a great beautiful actress. I love her so much.

This is me right now. Ive fallen for a Marine, its been two months. He goes back tonight and i dont think ill ever see him again because we live in different countries. The one that got away.

This movie really shows the difference between movies and real life, who the fuck would give up Channing Tatum?

Amanda Seyfried is such an underrated actress. Her and Emma Stone are probably the two most talented actresses of my/our generation. They bring a strong sense of beauty, naturalism and emotion to every single project they've ever been involved in.

Seeing Channing Tatum cry makes me want to cry. Ohmygod he's just so hot

I will never get over how hot he is.

is it just me or the main guy character in every Nicholas Sparks' movie are all hot

I met a guy from the military and we spent three weeks together. It was very much like Dear John. I was at work making coffees and his taxi arrived to take him to the airport. I was nervous that I wouldn't have a chance to say goodbye. I ran out in the rain and we kissed and he gave me a handwritten letter. It was so dramatic and honestly felt like straight out of Nicholas Sparks. I will miss him.

you need a bucket when you watch this because you will cryy

My name is Jeff....

I don’t think I’ve ever cried so much in my whole life. The saddest film I’ve ever watched. I’m pretty sure if all my tears were collected through out the whole movie they could fill a bucket. But honestly such a good film

Well, I'm glad I read the comments. Now, I'm not watching the movie. I have enough problems myself.

sooo karen smith stole him from regina george?

the saddest part of this movie was savannah asking john to say the words back(i'll see you soon then)but all he said was goodbye

I still can't believe this movie ended the way it did. No kiss just a freaking hug 😭😫

i will never get over how freaking good this movie is. the trailer was great, and it didn't even give it justice.

This movie always gets me. It is cheesy and all but I know the anxiety you feel with unexpected deployments, sudden changes and endless months apart. You are "forced" to go on with your life while waiting for the other person to come back and then restart your life once more. I did end my relationship after 2 years not always physically together and after 2 deployments. Somehow we met again 6 years later in the UK during a pandemic and it felt like time had not passed at all. How this movie ends makes absolute sense to me.

this movie gets to me everytime :(

First Karen, and then later Regina? wow channing got half of the plastics :D

Oh my gosh... I just finished the movie, and I can't believe I actually cried! It is a really good movie and I definitely recommend you to watch it :)

Damn. This movie came out when I was fourteen. I remember I was SO obsessed with it, I took it upon myself to memorize the trailer word for word. My family thought I was nuts. Now looking back... turns out they were absolutely right.

It has been 9 years and still I'm watching this movie

I loved Amanda and Channing's chemistry. I wish they would have another movie together, but with a happier mode this time. This movie made me cry too many times than I can count. Has a screen couple ever got back together in another movie before? I don't think I've ever encountered one yet.

Dear John- Karen Smith The Vow- Regina George And none for Gretchen Weiners bye.

The father-son moment at the hospital was very touching. I felt it.

If I cried for this trailer, imagine the movie .

I cannot take Channing Tatum seriously, thanks 21 and 22 Jump Street.

i regret watching this movie till the end, i mean i have enough problems to deal with, plus this. i aint watching this kind of plot/story again

This happened to me...left my country and my girlfriend...12months later she marries someone i know

Military relationships aren't as bad as they seem. We've gone through three deployments and have made it fine :)

Cried almost ALL THE WAY THROUGH... but mostly at the relationship between him and his dad. that got to me real bad

am i the only one that likes that green screen 0:05 bc it means that it is an old movie I-

The first two weeks they spent together was beautiful. Dammit that was great movie.

the scene with John & his dad in the hospital made me cry my eyes out

This is honestly one of the best romance movies I've ever watched.

i lost my girl friend i love the most and from there i started to date several girls but i once watched this movie then i started believe again in love this move make me believe in love again

I like the movie tho, I just hate the part where she cheated on him while he’s away, she knew at first he is a soldier, she can’t take it away... but she still flirted and then when she felt alone she dumped him? And when he come back she literally trying to recall their past? For what? To take him back and dump her husband? Thankful John said goodbye to her. Gosh!

I’m currently reading the novel and wow! Page 227-229 made my heart ache as if I’m in the story... I can’t even sleep anymore since it hurts so bad 💔 That letter though ugh!

this was the most heart-wrenching movie i've ever seen. It had me crying from the joy and tragedy of it all.

I love this ending, it's realistic.

Just bought the movie today and thought I would watch the trailer before so I can see what I can expect. Well, I might cry, I always do at movies like this. And Channing Tatum cries, reason enough to cry with him.

I was so extremely disappointed when she left him. He was still waiting for her but she got over him and she regretted it in the end. If only she was a little more patient.

The Notebook - Rachel Adams (Regina George) and Ryan Gosling, Dear John - The same creator as The Notebook with Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfriend (Regina George's dumb friend in Meal Girls) The Vow - Channing Tatum and Regina George. .......Does anyone else see the link or just me?...

So good movie but why the ending is like that "??? :(

The movie was awesome but the ending was kind of stupid....

Having dated a female service member way before I joined the Army, I can tell you that being married to or in a relationship with any service member is rarely glamorous. At the bare minimum, your family & personal hobbies are going to take a back seat to your military career, especially if you have the level of dedication that they want you to. Being a military spouse is extremely lonely nights on end, followed be lonely days, weeks & months. And if you have kids, it involves having to play the roles of both parents, even when you know that sometimes you'll just never be able to fill all 4 shoes. It's having to convince your family that you're still married even if you've attended every holiday gathering alone for the last 3 years. It's understanding that even when your military spouse is home, doesn’t mean his mind is. His body may be tired and knowing he truly wants to see his family and spend time with them, but he desperately needs sleep. Most importantly, is being able to tell that when he steps off that plane when he comes home, that last deployment was just one of those deployments. He doesn't mean to be moody or distant, he just hasn't been able to compartmentalize all the memories & images of the deployment he just got home from. If you marry a servicemember just for the uniform, you'll never make it. There's a reason there are more military ex's than military spouses. But for those who are there to stay, they would not trade this life for anything in the world. They'll take the bad with the good every day, because they know that being a veteran isn't just their spouse's career, it's their calling.

The dad plays his role so well. Makes you feel for him.

I saw this movie yesterday. I was always crying ... this novel is very very very intense ... the best novel I've ever seen ... the end is so heartbreaking ... OMG! I spent my whole day thinking about the movie and I felt so nostalgic and sad. Who hasn't seen the movie, I advise you to see.

I just couldn't understand why she left john!

This trailer's better than the whole movie tbh.

Most beautiful and most sad movie😢 chemistry between channing and amanda is unbelieveble❤❤❤❤

the dad and the coin collection thing made me cry so hard :(

I don't think that you will ever find this comment. But I'm leaving this comment here with a hope that one day you will find this one here . Dear ahana i love you 🤍 and you are the only love I have known. It’s been 3 years since our relationship ended and at times I still feel your energy which is incredibly strong. I miss you a lot, probably i can't explain exactly how much but all i can say is you are the only love i have known.

End of Year 2019 anyone?

This movie is so sad and gets me every time but I’ve always been happy to see a character named Savannah! I think this is the only movie I’ve ever watched with my name in it with the exception of the savannah desert😂

Dear johnnnnn I see it all now that you’re gone Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with the girl in the dress

I just watched this and it's so beautiful! I almost cried. It's emotional and beautiful.

Thinking if should watch Dear John again. A lovely movie. Maybe it won't wreck my emotions this time. Watches the trailer. 1 min in... *cries hysterically*

I still can't believe this movie I just watched it today I cried so many times they should've been together

this video's resolution is 1920x1080 and it was uploaded in 2009, thanks sony!

Dear, John, I see it all now that you’re gone

Charming Tatum took surfing lessons to be able to do the surfing scenes in this movie.

Tento film je asi najkrajší čo som kedy videla a dúfam že sa mi to nezmení Som zvyknutá na filmy ale tento bol výnimočný a nádherný Všetko je perfektné až na koniec ešte stále som to nepochopila, ale skončilo to ako to malo skončiť Ak toto čítate určite si to pozrite Ale najviac sa mi tam páčilo dvaja nádherný herci ktorý do toho vložili lásku Ďakujem za nádherný film

Great cast, great writer, great director. Cant go wrong!!! I can tell the two have chemistry just seeing teh trailer.

This movie to me shows me how fast life really goes by and how you can find true love so young and it can slip away so fast. I’m 25 now and I still love this movie. They fell in love young and then in the end you see how they ended up it shows me how fast life can by it’s like seconds. Love this movie

One of the most sweetest love stories ever. Both the leading roles were played perfectly. Who says romance is dead? Beautiful film.

This movie never fails to make me cry, my favourite forever...

"So il see you soon?" "Il see you soon"

Love this movie so much, watched it like 3 times and would still watch it again 😜

The funniest thing about this movie is the army walking aroung in irak and showing them being so friendly to the kids and people thinking we would belive that.

- I CRIED MY EYES OUT WHEN I SAW THIS MOVIE ITS GREAT !!!!!!!

I can't believe she left John, a total hottie and loyal man for that one dude who looks twice her age smh

diusia 19 (2019) ini saya merasa jauh lebih baik dapat menyaksikan film ini, i really love this movie. 💜💜💜💜💜

2022 and I'm still here waiting for the sequel of this Novel/movie.Nicholas Sparks hear me out! I still can't get over it,I'm still hurting for John Tyree.

I am OBSESSED with this movie! I am NOT a Nicolas Sparks fan, but I am seeing this movie on the 5th. I think it's Channing and Amanda, they are so aesthetically pleasing together. Besides, I love romances on the beach. Also Lasse Hallström is a lovely filmmaker, he is good at balancing romance and humor, along with pulling suporting characters into the story. I don't know I'm just fasinated with this film.

Set Fire to the Third Bar 😍

I’ve fallen for a Marine. And although the odds may seem to not be in our favor at the moment, I pray that we end up together in this lifetime and beat those odds because that man has my heart. He is the only person in the world I do not have to translate myself to yet we dont even have the same first language.

It's a "love" story about a cheater girlfriend. Many serviceman can relate.

Not after i watch Mean Girls

This movie dedicated to all those lovers ,whom's loves are too much far away from them..just showing the beauty of long distance relationship.. awsome movie, beautiful locations, and heart touching story...the way they describes the feelings is force u to feel this movie... love u dear john

Dear Nicholas, can we have ‘Dear John pt. 2’ ????

"I miss you so much that it hurts." I know that feeling. T_T

“If hers are stars in the nighttime sky, mine are the haunted empty spaces in between”

This movie made me cry 3 times. I love it so much it's so sad tho:(

How can this be a movie 🤧🤧😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 it's much more than that

So these days, i’m binge watching Nicholas Sparks’ movies. I just finished watching this about a minute ago :((( never thought it would be this sooooo goooood!!! Channing Tatum so freakin hawt! The best!! second to ‘the notebook’ AND MY BABIE AMANDAAAAA SHE AND CHANNING HAS A VERY EXCELLENT CHEMISTRY

Omg I loved this movie sooo much I cried!!! It's my new favorite movie!!!!!

The best movie after Titanic ..tears dropping.."shiit i shudnt be cryng um a guy lol" ..great movie..

Ok this is my take away from the movie. SPOIL ALERT btw. I think the story between John and his father is so much more deep thank anything. Tim was acutally a good guy and Savanah did everything she could. And as Savanah said, time always runs out... Man I told myself I wasn't going to cry... Nope I sure did.

the girl in the dress cried the whole way home

Anyone in 2019 ?

I love this movie so much! ♥ Why can't real relationships be like the one in this movie??

lets just say that the replay button has been a problem (love this beautiful movie)

The way john feels, the same way I am feeling these, I wish everything will be okay.

This has 13 million views and was posted 13 years ago 😂🎉🎉🎉

I respect those families who can bare to see their husbands/fathers leave for the army. Their love must be really strong.

Who's cutting onions here .

2024.... Still one of my favorite movies
