Summer Loving had me a blast!

Rating: 10/10 (13 August 2009)

This is not a movie review, it is my punfested non-linear take on my 95 minute experience viewing & digesting the groundbreaking romantic comedy of the year "500 Days of Summer". 26th minute- Wow, I am flabbergasted that this witty romantic comedy does not construct itself with the standard cinematic norm of most other films by continuing to reveal the plot in a non-chronological system. 74th minute- Joseph Gordon-Levitt's starring performance as Tom, the "hopeless romantic" greeting card writer has to be considered for a Best Actor Oscar nomination for the authenticity he invokes in the character. 6th minute- God, Zooey Deschanel is so hot! Nominate her for a Best Actress Oscar for just prettiness magnetism alone. 62nd minute- Zooey is not just an "acquired taste" bombshell but she also delivers a restrained but accurate performance as Summer, the greeting card administrative assistant which Tom romances even though she does not reciprocate the same romantic stance towards him throughout most of the relationship. 34th minute- How cool! An entertaining Karaoke scene in the movie, you just don't get enough of good ones in movie scenes these days. 80th minute- Director Mark Webb's definitely has me caught up in his atypical web of developing a romance with a foreseeable breakup where boy is much more into it than girl, we as male species have all been there. Mark gets high marks from me for his auteur efforts here. 23rd minute- How cool! That is The Smith's "There is a Light That Never Goes Out" that Tom is listening to on his headphones in the elevator. I love that song and so far this movie! 1st minute- I hope "500 Days of Summer" lives up to all the hype people have been buzzing about this presumed creative movie. 58th minute- Man, I gotta go pee but I do not want to miss a second of this overwhelmingly creative movie. 58th and a half minute- OK, I am back, wow that was one of the fastest urinal releases I have had in my life; I hope I did not wet my pants with the quick shake (T.M.I. Alert!) 81st minute- Scott Neustadter & Michael Weber's super clever screenplay of this movie is my favorite so far this year in that department. Man, I know I could have revealed my feelings for that in a more witty fashion. I was just flabbergasted with the verbal wit of Scott and Michael's screenplay which has left me relatively punless. 66th minute- Feeling the thespian love of the commendable supporting performances of Geoffrey Arend as Tom's greeting card colleague & pal McKenzie and Clark Gregg as Tom's evenhanded supervisor Vance. 53rd minute- I hope I get at least a semi-nude glimpse of Zooey's left breast in this sex scene between Tom & Summer. 95th minute- "500 Days of Summer" will most certainly be in my Top 10 List at year's end! Loved it! 96th minute- Did I valet my parking pass? Dizzy? Sorry! Nevertheless, the right order you should take is to go to the movies and feel the innovative warmth of "500 Days of Summer". ***** Excellent
