(500) Days of Summer

re: (500) Days of Summer

I Love this movie. I’ll even take the step to say this is one of my favourite movies of all-time. Outside of one character (the little kid that is wise beyond her years), I loved everything else.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel brought their A game to this film. The ups and downs of their relationship is spot on and both have the “it” factor. I can’t describe what the “it” factor is but I just know it when I see it. The directing and cinematography is spot on. I love the look, feel, and sound (amazing indie soundtrack) of the whole film.

I like how the movie bounces back and forth between the days of their relationship/non-relationship. I don’t want to ruin the movie but keep your eye out for the expectations/reality split screen scene.

All the main principles involved in this film deserve Oscar consideration.

500 Days Of Summer is going to be a first day Blu Ray purchase. I’m guessing you will find this video in the Extras

I really enjoyed this movie...glad I saw it, something that seems easily skip-able, but great storytelling of a relationship

I just watched this. Good stuff.

As someone who has been way too hung up over a relationship in the past (and still sort of in the present), I really got in to Gordon-Levitt's character. I saw myself in him a lot.

And, although I don't believe in the concepts of fate and that one special person, the movie really puts in to perspective the idea of there being plenty of fish in the sea and that the person you think may be right for you may not be, etc.

Watched this movie again and still enjoyed it as much as when I saw it in the theater. Great plot development and well thought out story.

I love Zooey Deschanel. I have no idea why but I'm completely captivated by her.

re: (500) Days of Summer

I saw this the other day and like everyone else, absolutely love it.

It's basically a chick flick for guys, but in a very well done way.

Something about those eyes. That's my defense.

I hated Zooey before this movie, especially in the Jim Carrey movie she was in (I forget the name of it). But this movie made a fan of hers, I still don't think she's that hot and that her sister is hotter, but I do appreciate the zoned out character that she portrays.

your talking about Yes Man, I didn't really "love" that movie either. I just picked this movie up off Itues today will watch it at some point this week. Looking forward to it based on comments on here. I also have a "thing" for Zooey. She isnt hot but she has a way about her.

Great movie. A little weird at times but the story was great and JGL was great.

Count me as one who is mezmerized by Zooey. Just something about her. Amazing. She was breathtaking in this movie.

re: (500) Days of Summer

Just picked this up on Blu-ray today and just finished watching it a few minutes ago. It was absolutely incredible.

re: (500) Days of Summer

Caught it with my wife and we both liked it alot.

She, however, did not like the ending...

Spoiler

...As much as I did. Fate giving him a girl named Autumn to follow a girl named Summer just sort of pissed her off. Maybe, despite all the warning, she was thrown off by the non traditional ending for a Romantic Comedy.

re: (500) Days of Summer

Also watched it with my wife recently and we both really liked it. Great movie all around.

re: (500) Days of Summer

I saw this a couple of days ago on-demand. Excellent movie. Like some of the others have said, I saw a lot of myself in Levitt's character. The relationship I was hung up on last year went down exactly like this one.


And the expectations/reality scenes were brilliant.
