Review - (500) Days of Summer, Bring a Date

(500) Days of Summer stars Zooey Deschanel (from Yes Man) and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (from 10 Things I Hate About You) and, as advertised, this is really not a love story. The story is a good reminder that a lot of relationships aren't perfect like they are in movies, and a lot of them sooner or later end. You have the quirkiness of Deschanel who plays her part brilliantly being the girl who doesn't want a permanent relationship, and Gordon-Levitt is an actually pretty decent leading man who wants the relationship. The cool thing about the movie, is that it tells the story out of order of the 500 days they're together so it shows how the relationship fluctuates. The movie overall is a quirky movie with Deschanel's humor added in, the jobs they hold, and the one random musical sequence which is hilarious. Deschanel looks uber cute with her doe-like eyes, slightly emo style, and slim body through out the pic, and there's a lot of good humor that keeps the story moving. This soundtrack is going to be one of the top-selling guaranteed, I'm not a fan of emo-esque songs but they were pretty good sounding. I think the soundtrack will sell just as well as the movie will. If you're not a fan of the cutesy romantic comedies like the most recent The Proposal, this would be a great movie then for you to take a date to go see.
