Absolutely refreshing

Rating: 10/10 (6 September 2004)

I didn't really know what this movie was all about before going to it, other than I had heard pretty good things about it.
It was a refreshing break for movies as a whole. It's subtle sarcasm and wit are perfectly placed throughout the film, bringing in many laugh out loud moments.
What it manages to capture though is the true gift: the real life aspects of comedy, disappointment, taking chances, fear, etc., are all so flawlessly blended together that the movie's pace is extremely natural and relaxing. Very rarely can a movie go from making you laugh out loud to feeling the tears come out with the character themselves so smoothly and realistically, but this movie manages to do that. 10/10
