Braff grows up

Rating: 10/10 (31 January 2005)

Nice little indie rom-com which shows that Zach Braff of 'Scrubs' is, surprisingly enough, quite the auteur- directing, writing, and starring in the film.
I was expecting a lot from this film, and while it delivered, I'm pretty surprised to see it in the IMDb top 250 films OF ALL TIME. It starts slow and while it grows on you and ends up being very endearing, (like Natalie Portman's character), it's still a first film for Braff as director and this shows.
That said, I liked it a lot. Its unique, quirky and romantic. The movie made me really wistful for a past romance I shared with a guy like Largeman. I guess I just wasn't his Samantha.
