Real Life Script

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2005)

The screenplay to this movie was so real I felt like someone had been listening in on my life. While the plot and cinematography was pleasantly artsy and out-there, all the dialog was breathtaking real and down to Earth. Zach Braff and Natalie Portman had good chemistry and their scenes' language was only topped by their amazing eye-contact. With a fabulous soundtrack that is my favorite CD of the year, this movie receives a 10. Well worth watching. If you liked Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind, you should see Garden State, and if you liked Garden State, definitely watch Eternal Sunshine. I'd heard mixed reviews about Garden State and wasn't sure I wanted to see it but I was so connected immediately into the movie by the interesting imagery, and very intriguing beginning. At one point I actually started crying, even though the movie isn't very sad, just because I felt like a movie had finally captured how most people feel and can never express.
