boohoo

Rating: 5/10 (3 December 2004)

I will hand it to Zach Braff for writing a funny script, however, this movie sucked. Braff is great on scrubs and points together a fine performance in this movie, the problem is that it reminded me a little of Avril Lavigne or Saves the Day. An attempt to seem all emotionally vulnerable and yet still cool. What is it with whiny teenage melodrama(he's 28 with a 17 year-old perspective), this movie provides no challenge to audience, it simply lulls right from the beginning with predictability. A not so subtle attempt of seeming cool by mentioning how the shins changed his life, horrible sappy ending and Natalie portmans horrible acting ruin a funny story. Please, re-watch this all you who where fooled by this one, Spotless mind (Kaufman, GOndry's role made people like it before they even saw it) is similarily overrated but still much better this unoriginal story.
