This movie was perfect....

Rating: 10/10 (17 May 2005)

I REALLY loved this movie and everything about it. It is funny, sensitive and romantic. The soundtrack is incredible, as is the acting, The characters were so realistic, and I thought that the honesty of the events of their lives and how they deal with them was so true to life. It was clear that Zack Braff was not only from NJ, but drew from his own life experience to write the movie. I am sure that many writers do that, but this seemed to come out unfiltered. The message of the movie came out being that even though life can be difficult and uncertain, it can be a positive experience.
Natalie Portman (who could NOT be cuter, by the way) was incredible and she and Braff worked so well off each other. It was just obvious by watching this movie that Braff was truly married to the film, loved it, and considered every detail. It says a lot about what an amazing talent he is that he wrote, directed, and starred in this wonderful film.
Truth be told, I am usually a little critical of movies, but I thought this one was one of the best I have seen in years.
