Date Night Movie Review #3 - 500 days of Summer

It is a rare treat that C and I actually get to go see a movie in theaters, which was something we did almost every weekend before becoming parents. So after much debate between Inglorious Bastards and 500 Days...I won!





Synopsis: Does true love exist? For Tom it does, in the form of Summer Finn. During the course of 500 days - give or take - Tom discovers that he wants to spend the rest of his life with Summer, that she is every thing he could ever want from her smile to her laugh to the heart-shaped birth mark on her shoulder. She is perfect for him, except that Summer doesn't believe in love, or relationships for that matter.

I adore 500 days! It is a sweet, terribly funny, and very touching. Even C liked it - well, the film lover liked it a lot, but the man hated it. It is a romantic comedy, but unlike most, it is the guy that falls...hard and eventually winds up heart broken and alone. Watch it, love it, cry a little even. I did.
