Fresh... Beautiful piece of art

Rating: 8/10 (17 December 2009)

This film was a breath of fresh air. Its your typical Boy meets Girl film but the way it is presented makes it beautiful.
What i enjoyed was how time was plotted. It would Flash forward and back effortlessly. This idea could have easily backfired but it worked to perfection.
My hat goes off to Joseph Gordon-Levitt. His portrayal of a 'fragile' Tom was right on the mark. Long gone are the days of 3rd Rock from the Sun (i did enjoy that show). You can really see his maturity in 500 Days Of Summer. Zooey as Summer also did an excellent job.
There some laughs here and there, but it feels more like a Romantic/Drama/Comedy. It is probably one of the best if not the BEST Romantic Comedy/Drama to come out in 5 years. A breath of fresh air.
8.5/10
