I saw it. It was really good. I both loved and hated it. Zoey Dechanel was good but she needs to change her style of acting. It's always the same in every film. Gordon was fantastic!!!One of his best roles. It was a movie i could connect my real life to. The ups and downs and give and takes of a relationship and the ending of it without understanding. Then finding out the other never really felt the same. One for everyone to watch if they have ever had a so called good relationship end. I would not compare it too much to when Harry met Sally...but some areas can seem like it but still not too much.
It may be just me (it probably is), but I found it incredibly annoying and way too kooky for my liking.
The film dares to say "kooky is kool", and I cannot stand a second when Zooey 'wide eyed cutie' Dechanel comes on screen. That's when I really want to rent out Drag Me To Hell and just calm my brain down.
It begs you to forgive it's kookyness because, hey it's 'the post-modern love story'. It's supposed to hip....urm, no, it just wants me to gnaw my fingers off.
For god's sake Zooey, go back to doing roles where you are NOT the specky, cute, wide-eyed, innocence where the world is always full of birds and trees.
It's critic-bait and internet critic gold (the Harry Knowles factor). As if to say, 'it's intelligent because it's indie and fuck Hollywood because they'll never know how hip this shit is'.
And what's with disjointed time structures? It's a smart-aleck way of trying to look good
I still haven't seen it and now out of what I have heard about this one I want to see it even more.
This film as a good cast and the story seems very Interesting.
