First Look: "The Vow"

It looks like Rachel McAdams is in another sappy, melodramatic movie. This time, the always underwhelming Channing Tatum tags along in The Vow. Looking like a cross between The Time Traveler's Wife and The Notebook, The Vow follows a young married couple whose romance is interrupted by a tragic car accident, which leaves Paige (McAdams) an amnesiac. Meanwhile, her husband Leo (Tatum) must suffer the agony of pining over a wife that doesn't remember him and is too busy piecing her life back together to focus on rebuilding (or, in her case, building) a relationship again.

After this, McAdams really needs to take a break from this genre. She's getting really pigeon-holed and folks may be forgetting that she may actually have talent behind this onslaught of ridiculous soap opera-like tales. As for Tatum, this is right up his alley (but he should probably stick to less dramatic performances, ones that don't highlight his non-acting ability). See for yourself in the new trailer below. The Vow hits theaters February 10, 2012, just in time for Valentine's Day date night.
