Everyone, go see (500) Days of Summer

Honestly, the best movie I've seen in a while. I could rave about this movie for a lifetime.

1. Excellent pacing of the movie. It didn't move too fast or too slow. I was completely in the moment of each scene. The director, Marc Webb, made his point with a couple of short scenes, yet the long scenes were perfect as well because it brought the viewer into the characters' worlds so that we could feel the emotion and tension. It was a movie that didn't drag out, and wasn't too fast. I never wanted the movie to end!
2. Excellent acting. Both of the actors really charm the camera. They were very convincing. I just fell in love with both of them, even though one of them is a girl and I'm straight.
3. Cinematography was stellar. Colours went well together, angles were gorgeous, there were various effects sometimes, which I loved. The feel of the movie is so indie, yet perfectly refined.
4. I don't want to ruin it for you if you haven't watched it (spoiler), but the dance scene made me smile. It was too cute!
5. The movie was original, it was funny, it wasn't something we've seen before, yet we're all familiar with the boy meets girl plot.
6. The story, the characters, everything was brilliant. I liked their witty dialogue, the humour, and how the movie was so fun. The irony at the end was fantastic.
7. I cannot believe that this movie is one of the first big projects for the director and the writers. May their careers be blessed with more of these masterful creations!
