Anyone can relate to this movie

Rating: 8/10 (20 November 2005)

Garden State is a movie that I have to watch again. Not because I like it so much, it's just that I can relate to this film. Zach Braff is great in this film. Personally, I think he should have been nominated for a Golden Globe. He's very funny and sad at the same time. When his mother passes away, he goes back to his hometown. There, he trys to talk to his dad, get to know his friends all over again and as a bonus, he meets a girl. That's the pin-point of the movie. When he meets Sam(Natile Portman), he first thinks this girl is out of her mind. But, as the film progresses, he starts to love her, and they become the best of friends. I can relate to Garden State all the way. The music in the film is great also. You have that felling of, your watching a documentary, because it seems so real. I'm going to rent this next week. If you want to watch a great film, Garden State is the film.
