enjoy.


Also, what were your feelings on this movie? I heard a lot of mixed feelings, and although I can understand why, I totally and completely related with it, and LOVED it with all my heart. Please, share your thoughts.

I only heard it described as an instant classic. I haven't seen it yet, but I'd very much like to!

I absolutely adored the movie! I loved the creative part, and how they could pull off not having an ending you expected. ahh, I could watch that movie everyday

Taylor said...

Love it!! The movie was just a breathe of fresh air when I saw it. Compared to all the other cookie cutter rom-coms that keep coming out, this movie is just smart in all respects! Love this video btw! She & him are one of my faves.

Britt said...

I think you're right. People either loved it or hated it. I personally loved it! It wasn't as predictable and completely unrealistic as most chick flicks.

I love it so so much: 1. The music is the best. 2. JGL is in it. 3. I love Tom. 4. The ending is so precious and always makes me cry in a good way.

I always wonder why people don't like this movie. It is unique and real. I have always believed in the power of loving someone before the one you will love forever. Just a spectacular movie, great music, great actors, great story!

Personally, 500 Days of Summer is one of the newer additions of my all-time favorite movies. I like how it's more like what would happen in real life. Plus, you can't go wrong with Joseph Gordon Levitt... great singer, great dancer, and a total dream boat :)

Katie said...

My favorite movie of all time. I could relate with it as well. The soundtrack is amazing too.

I liked the movie :) At first, I'll admit, I was a little unsure about it, but I think it was good because it really wasn't a love story. It was real. It's a movie that I can watch whenever because I can actually relate to it. I love chick flicks but when I am crying over a boy, an unrealistic happy ending is not what I want to see. That bank dance is great! I agree, I want it to happen to me! :)

I thought it was good. Not super duper life-changing amazing, but DEFINITELY worth seeing. I didn't realize it was polarizing in the sense that people loved/hated it. The cinematography was great and they did a terrific job creating interesting characters. Aesthetically, this movie was the bomb, and the narration was perfect. There are so many lines/situations that resonate with people, so the writers get credit for that :) However, the ending with the transition from Summer to Autumn was a BIT much for me (a little on the the cheesy side?) but I get it. It was a beautiful movie.

Oh how I loved this movie! I think it is definitely a must see for everyone. I think that a lot of people were disappointed because *SPOILER FOR ANYONE READING THIS WHO HASN'T SEEN THE MOVIE* he didn't "get the girl". And of course that is disheartening, however, it's totally realistic! I totally relate to this movie and I only hope that everyone ('specially single peeps like myself) watches it at least once... there are great lessons to be learned from this film! :)

I loved this movie. I've heard mixed reviews too, but I loved everything about it. Especially jgl (: The soundtrack was amazing too. an i love this video.

Beverly said...

I related with 500 days of summer as well. I watched it just at the right time in my life, I suppose :)

Jessica Zigenis said...

This is one of my favorite movies of all time, and I watch it constantly. I loved it for its wit, the way it was produced, and because it was so realistic. It was a much more realistic "love" story. Love it! And I love that video. : )

kandace_hugie said...

This is probably my most favorite movie. Lots of people say it just makes them sad, but it actually makes me extremely happy! And it's so real, you know what I mean?

Tessawilkes said...
