Warning: Spoilers
The tragic accident of a vibrant young woman, at the center of this story, is the basis of "The Vow", a dramady which is an account of what really happened to Paige, a sculptor, who sees her life changing in front of her eyes, without a clue as to what her situation was like in the time that preceded the horrible crash in which she practically loses her recent memory.

Paige met Leo, the man that fell hard for her. When he asked her to marry him, she accepts immediately, after all, Leo has shown a devotion and love like the one Paige has never experienced in her young life. It is clear both meant to be together for life. The accident changes everything. A layer of Paige's memory is erased from her mind and there is no way to get it back. Leo, who refuses to give up, continues to do everything in his power to get back to normal.

Many aspects of Paige's life are unknown to Leo, as she never told him anything about her family. All that comes to a shocking end as Leo meets his wife's wealthy, and influential parents. It is clear she comes from a different world. It is because of her father's manipulation, and the revelation of a horrible secret that Paige decides to get out of her surroundings, understanding, perhaps, Leo had always be true to her.

Directed by Michael Sucsy, the film is pleasant to the eye, made better by the presence of two handsome performers, Rachel McAdams, and Chaning Tatum, who make an attractive couple. The director goes for "cute", and thanks to the excellent team behind the high gloss production, succeeds in giving it the right look to the film.
