Movie Tip #39 - (500) Days of Summer

Director: Marc Webb

Starring: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Zooey Deschanel

Description: After it looks as if she's left his life for good this time, Tom Hansen (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) reflects back on the just over one year that he knew Summer Finn (Zooey Deschanel). Despite being physically average in almost every respect, Summer had always attracted the attention of men, Tom included. For Tom, it was love at first sight when she walked into the greeting card company where he worked. Soon, Tom knew that Summer was the woman with whom he wanted to spend the rest of his life. Although Summer did not believe in relationships or boyfriends. Tom and Summer became more than just friends, or didn't they?

Review: I wanted to see this movie for a long time and now I finally saw it I'm so overjoyed. This is so much more then your typical boy-girl story. It's told in a very unusual way. Tom wants what Summer doesn't want. The story has some unexpected twists and the movie is filmed in a very creative way. Especially the scene where we see a split screen: on the left we see Tom's expectations and on the right we see Tom's reality. Absolutely brilliant! Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt are an awesome movie couple with amazing chemistry. I also have to say that they made a great choice of music, that fits this film perfectly. Like Tom fell head over heals with Summer, I'm head over heals with this movie. IT ROCKS!!
