Very Subtile, funny AND very sad at the same time

Rating: 10/10 (23 February 2008)

If you like fast-paced action movies you probably won't like it. Its about living life and.. well its been a while since i jumped from an exploding helicopter, shooting three guards while falling and landing safely in the pool of a secret harem, full of beautiful woman wanting to get me rid of my wet clothes. The general tone is quiet and subtle and if you just look for comedy, give it a try, but sometimes you don't know if it is really OK to laugh.
I would't say the Humor is like the Humor in Scrubs, but it's similar. If you laugh watching scrubs, you laugh watching GS. It IS a funny movie.
Portmann and Braff are doing a great Job acting, the atmosphere is dense and the jokes feel "real".
You got to watch carefully to get the whole background of the story and you need to accept the world of the movie to really like it. The focus of the film lays on the deep, round, Characters, the witty Dialouges and especially on creating a weird/funny/believable World. And this superb done.
This is one of my favorite Movies. It reminds me of that you don't have a good or a bad time. You got a mixture of both and watching this movie having a good time, made me always a bit contemplative, watching it while i was sad it made me a bit more happier.
