500 Days of Summer
500 Days of Summer was a cute romantic comedy. it's different though from your average romantic comedy. It's a story about Tom who falls hard for a girl named Summer when he first set his eyes on her. Zooey Deschanel is flawless, like she always is, but plays a sort of bitchy character, and plays it good. she's not bitchy in the way a stuck up or a mean character would be, just that she doesn't really believe in love is really cynical about it to where she doesn't let Joseph Gordon Levitt's character to be in a serious relationship with her but leads him on, and feels some connection to him. His feelings for her are definitely much more stronger then her feelings for him, but she does care a lot for him as a friend. For Tom she was his soul mate and that it was fate that brought them together. The movie revolves around their relationship and goes back and forth between past memories and what's going on in the present. It ends in a way a romantic comedy would not normally end because Tom and Summer don't end up together, & she ends up getting married, which throws off for about a second. The last time Summer & Tom see each other takes place in Tom's favorite place and the two get closure. overall I thought it was a good movie.
