Review

 

Off-beat romantic comedy starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Brick, Mysterious Skin) and Zooey Deschanel (Failure to Launch).

"This is a story of boy meets girl", begins the wry, probing narrator of 500 Days Of Summer, and with that the film takes off at breakneck speed into a funny, true-to-life and unique dissection of the unruly and unpredictable year-and-a-half of one young man's no-holds-barred love affair.

Tom, the boy, still believes, even in this cynical modern world, in the notion of a transforming, cosmically destined, lightning-strikes-once kind of love. Summer, the girl, doesn't. Not at all. But that doesn't stop Tom from going after her, again and again, like a modern Don Quixote, with all his might and courage. Suddenly, Tom is in love not just with a lovely, witty, intelligent woman -- not that he minds any of that -- but with the very idea of Summer, the very idea of a love that still has the power to shock the heart and stop the world.

i love this movie! i like the fact that it's so unique and different from other romantic comedies. it's really easy to relate to the characters and fall in love with them, and even though you know pretty much what's going to happen from the start, it still has you hoping everything will turn out okay between Tom and Summer. i also like the fact that it is done from the point of view of the guy! this movie is everything from funny, cute to really quite heartbreaking. it makes you completely fall in love with the character Summer, and the idea of her and Tom being the perfect couple, and then you end up feeling bitter towards her for breaking poor little Tom's heart. Tom is just adoreable, i just wanted to give him a massive hug! in my opinion, this is definitely one of my favourite films of all time! if anything, it's my top favourite. i absolutely love it :]

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Brilliant!

This film was brilliant! I was recommended it by a few people and they weren't wrong at how good it is!
Its slightly 'eternal sunshine of the spotless mind' - quirky and original, but thats whats great about it! The fact thats its not a typical boy meets girl fall in love and have babies, the end. Its real life and you can relate to it perfectly. We've all been a 'Summer' or a 'Tom' at some stage in our relationship lives which makes you love the characters even more.

I highly highly recommend it!

I'm completely shocked at the reviews on here, I thought this was one of the best movies I've seen in a while. It's funny, the characters are lovable, it displays the emotions involved in the whole process in a really addictive way...I can't see how anyone could give this less than 4 stars.
