From the “kick ass” trailer I was really looking forward to seeing 500 Days of Summer, as I’m a complete sucker for romantic comedies. Well… At least I though it was! This is about a boy, that meets a girl, boy falls in love ,and girl… well… she does what she likes. This drives the poor boy insane, enough to write a full feature film about his breakup with Summer and achieve world wide success! In most romantic comedies you will find that it’s the women who ends up with her heart broken. Not this flick! In this cases you will find that it’s the man who gets his heart broken and discovers himself on the path he should have always been on! This is based on a true story.. It’s so good, it has the build up, the progression, the wit, and the final delivery all in the right places. Go and seek out this movie Zooey Deschanel, is misleading, footloose and sooo HOT!

This post modern love story is never what we expect it to be – it’s thorny yet exhilarating, funny and sad, a twisted journey of highs and lows that doesn’t quite go where we think it will. When Tom, A hapless greeting card copywriter and hopeless romantic is blindsided after his girlfriend Summer dumps him, he shifts back and forth through various periods of their 500 days “together” to try to figure out where things went wrong. His reflections ultimately lead him to finally rediscover his true passions in life.
