Good Guy Meets Nice Girl

Rating: 8/10 (27 September 2008)

Have you ever had that sweet guy friend who brings you soup in the morning tend to date the bitchiest girls? Or have you had the nicest girl friend who always has your back but tends to hook up with assholes? Well this movie is about the two paths of the Good Guy and the Nice Girl crossing.
I saw this movie at an advanced screening the other day and to be honest I was very skeptical. As a HUGE fan of Micheal Cera and the movie JUNO, I was certain that this movie was attempting to be another JUNO. But to my surprise it was a whole another entity. Mainly because this movie was based off a book (which i just bought).
This movie is much more diverse and vulgar in some ways such as language. There are gay characters in the movie that play a supporting role which I found delightful since it was unexpected and more relatable since I don't know many people who don't have gay friends. Cera plays the same boy next door as Nick but Dennings as Norah compliments him well. The two of them are opposites yet they have many things in common and one of them is taste in music.
Overall, I thought the movie was perfect to take a date on. I was with my boyfriend and the movie was a prefect combo of cuddles and laughs. I highly recommend this movie!
