A love story - told out of time. Summer is that magical girl that everyone falls in love with, but who does not believe in love. Tom is the wanna-be who does believe in love, but can't find it. This film is the story of the 500 days of their relationship. Maybe because the story doesn't have enough interest on its own, the writer tells it out of sequence, jumping forward and backward in time to provide foreshadowing and back story. Unfortunately, this doesn't help. The characters just aren't that interesting.

I thought this was a pretty lame movie. Lame/predictable story, pretty lame acting, and WAY too much hype. Zooey is cute of course...she always plays the same character... the cute girl. I was inspired to get some chalkboard paint after I saw this movie though. I guess that alone should be worth one star. :)
Good call Jamie, the titles and transitions were pretty cool.
