(500) Days Of Summer ... Far Better Than The Fair

Tuesdays have become a habitual movie night for N and I it seems, tonight was no different. After considering going to the fair we opted to hit up a movie instead. Originally we had hoped to see Paper Heart, but it will not be playing in DSM until the 21st so we switched up the game and went to (500) Days Of Summer, excellent choice.

First off who knew Joseph Gordon-Levitt got hot? I sure wasn't CC:'d on that memo. He rocks a solid skinny tie/cardigan combo in conjunction with some sweet Puma's in the film, it was definitely not a pain to watch him for 95 minutes, at times he looked a bit like Heath Ledger ... weird. Either way, pleasant surprise.
But back to the movie. I really liked the film style. The narration, time lapses & short scenes made it entertaining. It was romantic and funny, perfect for a pseudo-date-like-situation for us 4 single folk, thank you JW & LW for being N & my "arm candy" for the evening. Without saying too much (B-Bob you will love this part) there is a fabulous dance sequence to Hall & Oates "You Make My Dreams" that was for me the highlight of the film. Basically this scene depicts what "love" feels like for Tom, Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character. If you don't have any desire to watch the movie at least watch this vid ... but seriously see the movie it was fab, far better than that Transformers 2 mumbo jumbo!
