500 Days of Summer

Love Hurts!!

Finally, a movie for those of us who have loved and not be loved in return and couldn’t understand why... This Love story actually isn't a love story... I found this movie sweet and sad, hilarious and devastating... Truly frustrating! Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel put a lot of effort in their characters and the result was an awesome movie with such an good story that make us think about what love really is...

"This post modern love story is never what we expect it to be — it’s thorny yet exhilarating, funny and sad, a twisted journey of highs and lows that doesn’t quite go where we think it will. When Tom (Gordon-Levitt), a hapless greeting card copywriter and hopeless romantic, is blindsided after his girlfriend Summer (Zooey Deschanel) dumps him, he shifts back and forth through various periods of their 500 days “together” to try to figure out where things went wrong. His reflections ultimately lead him to finally rediscover his true passions in life."


Actually I saw the trailer of this movie in some German Chanel long time ago but I didn't catch the name and really enjoyed the story... A few weeks later I found the movie in a facebook of a friend and I figure out it was the same that I'd saw long ago... I just hurry up to download it!

This comedy is really catchy because it's pretty soft, you shift back and forth from the number of days when Tom is happy with Summer in his life to the number of days when he’s miserable because he can’t figure out why she won’t love him back. It can be a bit frustrating watching this especially for those of us who’ve been in that situation but I think that’s where the writing is successful, for half the movie, it sorta makes an enemy out of Summer and we feel for Tom, but eventually we’ve come to realize that Tom is too needy and we understand that Summer’s decision is actually the wise one...
