“(500) Days of Summer” Movie Review

“(500) Days of Summer” Plot Summary

An offbeat romantic comedy about a woman who doesn’t believe true love exists, and the young man who falls for her.

Fresh & Original Romantic Comedy

This was an excellent romantic comedy, although many might not agree that it is either romantic or a comedy. I found myself laughing out loud at many of the scenes, but the laughs in the theater were few, and I think most people would label this a drama with streaks of black comedy

The driving force behind what makes this movie work (beside the script) is Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Tom Hansen, who carries the movie on the basis of his physical comedy and acting ability. He is the unrequited love interest in the film. JGL does have brief glimpses of true love with Summer (Zooey Deschanel) but it’s clear she’s not interested in anything permanent, just a good time. After his initial sexual encounter with Summer, JGL engaged in a choreographed dance routine of Hall & Oats ‘Your Making my Dreams Come True’, which should win JGL some type of award

Deschanel plays the role she usually plays, soulful & pretty free spirit. She played the character very well and the movie viewer could well understand her reticence to engage in a long term affair with Tom

These types of movies might leave some cold, but the ending turned out well

One additional bonus was Chloe Moritz, who played Tom’s younger teenage sister and Psycho-Analyst. She was great

A very good movie worth checking out. A near perfect date movie I might add.

“Harsh Times” Movie Review

“Harsh Times” Plot Summary

A tough-minded drama about two friends in South Central Los Angeles and the violence that comes between them.

Excellent movie

Bale’s performance in Harsh time is phenomenal this besides the machinist and American psycho have to be some of my favourite performances by him

The Chemistry between Freddie and Bale is great it seems like they’ve been ‘homies’ for years very tight friendship so you know how tight they are immediately and it makes you care for them

Bale’s character is a former soldier and he has major issues just imagine a soldier coming back for Vietnam with flash backs and such …pretty much they are never the same mentally again…that is bales character right there it’s much more deeper maybe someone will explain it better then me Freddie’s character is the guy who is a ride or die friend he’ll stick with you to end but he’s also a follower and get’s influenced very easily by bale’s character in the movie…I view it as Bale is like an older brother to him Eva Longoria is freddie’s girlfriend and she loves him to death because pirior Freddie stuck by here and help her out during university or college i can’t remember..All she wants now is for Freddie to get a Job but Bale’s influence always divides freddies focus on handing out his applications..She doesn’t like Bale’s character basically thinks he’s going to get freddie killed just imagine being with your friend throwing around a lot of cuss words but when your talking to someone at a business place you talk proper and not urban slang.. I’d say it’s a violent movie i mean there is some brutal scenes that will feed your violence fix….all in all this movie is pretty damn realistic
