(500) Days of Summer

I watched this film more out of curiosity due to its popularity, but I honestly didn't see anything special about it at all. It is hardly funny, not intelligent or entertaining enough to grab your attention. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is likable, but Zooey Deschanel was an ugly bitch whom I found very unlikeable, I didn't really root for their strange relationship. It didn't sit well with me. A run-of-the-mill unremarkable romantic drama like any other. 55% (10/26/2017)

This is not a love story.. Maybe not, but romantics will still adore this tale. Marc Webb had to simply recreate so many natural feelings and moods from life, so accurately, that I definitely won't be the only one who sees themselves in Tom. With each passing year, the turmoil becomes more relevant. (01/20/2010)

500 Days of Summer is a sweet romantic dramedy with a likable cast in the lead roles and an unconventionally portrayed relationship between two people who meet by chance. Aside from the narrative style, which was purposefully non-linear, I liked the uncharacteristic ending, which gives a run for its money to the vast majority of overseas films of a similar genre. In short, a film suitable for brightening up a day in which love, fatality, disappointment and hope collide. (05/09/2013)

A nostalgic ride into the past, when all this stuff still meant something. Marc Webb turns the tables skillfully and doesn't forget to add the bad to the good. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is excellent as the idealistic young man who one will day become a dad who will watch 500 Days of Summer on TV because Disney+ told him he might be interested. (07/31/2023)

A fresh and new approach to the material with excellent casting. The two main virtues of this interestingly presented and positive comedy, where the wave of seriousness and sometimes bitterly cynical undertones resonate perfectly with the archetypal premise of all romantic films, are love and everything around it. Webb got it right, it's from life, and while it seems mature and adult at times, it's actually a teen issue in every way. (08/29/2016)
