Garden State is Beautiful

Rating: 10/10 (7 August 2010)

There was only one reason i downloaded this movie and that was Natalie Portman, and i am really glad i did because this is a BEAUTIFUL MOVIE. It tells us the story of a person who is living an uninterested and boring life after being estranged from his family for many years and how he finally comes back to his home for his mother's funeral. It takes us through the journey of he finding himself through the four days he spends at his hometown.
There is one line in the movie that completely blew me away.
"It's amazing how much of my life has been determined by a quarter inch piece of plastic"
This line clearly epitomizes the situation of the central character in the movie and to a large extent the same in our lives. It beautifully brings out the intricate human emotions, There are some really humorous moments in the movie thanks to Natalie Portman who sparks up the screen whenever she is on it. Is downright down to earth and you never for the slightest of moment feel like you are watching a movie.
It is really sad to see that it got such little rewards and recognition.
A MUST WATCH
