Very good performances by JGL and Zooey

Rating: 9/10 (10 March 2012)

Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel both deliver excellent performances in the lead roles here. The movie blends the drama and comedy together quite well. The story is about Tom(JGL) and Summer(Zooey) who work together at a greeting card company. Over time Tom really starts getting feelings for Summer even though she is upfront with him telling him that she doesn't want a boyfriend. Tom pretends to be cool with this but it's pretty clear that he wants to be more friends with benefits which no matter what Tom does is all that she ever wants from him. After a while she quits her job at the greeting cards company and stops seeing him which leads him into a great depression.
The movie which was an independent production is a sleeper hit. The movie is very clever and offbeat thing going for it.
