The ideal flirt (DVD)

Rating: 4/10 (10 April 2010)

My habit is to watch first the movie with the audio commentary. The good thing is that when I will watch it again, I will be much aware of everything. The bad thing is that actually I don't know what's really about and just fathom the story.
It seems that Natalie Portman falls in love with an introverted young guy who has difficult relationship with his father. It's just the dream of millions teenagers: you are at odds with yourself and your family and then, an angel says you are the one! Ah, movies are cool! It happens in New Jersey, a really unknown state except that it is close to New-York! I had to check maps to see the big cities here. Sure, you can call it a "Garden State" because it is open to nature and the movie shows it well with its green atmosphere.
The commentary is helpful but it looks all the same: For every little detail, it's like a state of art for the speakers whereas for the audience, it's just dull.
The main character is a bit irritating with his silent attitude and it just seems unlikely that Nathalie can have a crush for him. Finally, this romance lacks passion. Will it be better with the dialogs?
