How many guys cried during this movie?

Yes, I teared, and I even knew it was going to happen because I read the book about eight years ago. I almost forgot when it was supposed to happen but it all came back when he got in his teacher's car.

I didn't find so touching the death scene. I think it was average, because it didn't transmit the emotion, at least not to me. I guess the problem was the music and I have lost relatives close to me, but I couldn't relate to the boy in that moment.

Oh geez, I lost it. Everything about the movie is so sweet, and when Jesse's dad breaks him the bad news about Leslie, it comes from SO far out of left field that it literally stole my breath away; it devastated me in an instant. I bawled uncontrollably through the rest of the film and continued to do so for pretty much the rest of the night, as if I'd personally lost a family member or something, and I can't think of a single other movie that has ever touched me on such a profoud emotional level. I just couldn't get it out of my head. As the father of a young daughter, myself, the very idea of it crushes me to the core. I don't know how I could go on if I ever lost my daughter like that.

It really says a lot for AnnaSophia Robb's performance, I have to say... she really lights up the screen with her bright, sincere, endearing personality. It's impossible to not completey adore her, and when her character dies, it really is like all the light gets sucked out of the movie. But in a meaningful, important way. The final 20 or 30 minutes of the film instantly propelled it onto my list of all-time favorites. You really feel Jesse's agony over losing her. Although I did find myself somewhat disappointed by the reaction of Leslie's parents; theirs seemed to be the only dry eyes at her wake.

Didn't cry but it was pretty moving and emotional. I didn't expect her to die :s

I cried like a baby when I read the book, I didn't cry when I saw the movie however.

My eyes were watery. They made it feel like she was a real person that died.

Hand up!

Saw it for the first time today and yes i cried! It was heart breaking, you fall in love with both these characters (especially Leslie) and then BAM! I cry at the fact she lost her sweet innocent life and the fact that Jesse was heart broken losing his only friend! Everytime it shows Leslies parents also makes me cry as i cant imagine what it must be like to lose such a beautiful charming daughter. It's a brilliant film, i highly recommend it but have tissues ready! I Must remember it's only a film :)
