Romantic-Comedy with depth

Rating: 7/10 (7 April 2019)

500 Days of Summer looks at the Relationship of Tom and Summer in a different way than most movies in this genre. From the Beginning you can relate to the main charakter Tom, because of the very good performance from Joseph Gordon-Levitt who carries the movie with his great performance. Unfortunatley Zoey Deschanel was not very convincing and therefore the whole chemistry between the main charakters did not always feel very real. Nonetheless the movie did a great job creating emotions. Happy moments were portrayed really well and also sad moments had their one tone and did create the perfect feeling for this moment in the movie. After a while the movie becomes slightly predictable and a bit too overdramatic but still feels very lighthearthed and caring. The ending was sweet and leaves the viewer with mixed feelings. In my opinion the ending was a bit too formulated, but still did deliever the right emotions that were needed in this moment.
Overall 500 Days of Summer is a good movie with some interesting plot elements. The emotions in the movie felt real and consume the viewer from the very first shot. Sometimes it follows to much the formula of a normal romantic Comedy and therefore becomes nothing special in the end. 7/10
