What a brilliant film, pity it was only on limited release!

Rating: 9/10 (23 December 2004)

I recently went to see the garden state not really knowing what to expect and came out thoroughly satisfied.
After being a little bored with all the recent romantic comedy Richard Curtis style stuff that has been around this year it was so refreshing to watch something that was a little different but could still draw the average Joe in.
It is thoroughly well acted by all from new to film Zach Braff to veteran Ian Holm and Natalie Portman is brilliant as always.
A definite must see and buy on DVD 9/10, kick ass soundtrack which also helps!
