Well this turned out to be a really great romance comedy. Normally I don't find US romance comedies all that great since they normally follow the same tired formally but I thought this pic was rather different.
The movie offered a nice blend of coincidence and/or destiny in the storyline, which is more commonly used in South Korean romances, and the peppy stylish imagery and animation seen in more popular French romances. The combination of the two styles plus a dash of US influence made this into a really great flick.
The story basically tells your tale of love and heartbreak, but told of in a creative manner, where we see the events as they are now and back track every now and then to see how the couple (Joseph Gordon-Levitt & Zooey Deschanel) got to that point.
It's a sweet, funny, and sometimes a little sad flick that should please fans of the sub-genre. It's a nice breath of fresh air from the usual material we see from the US. The chemistry between the leads work well, especially since Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character is such a likable guy off-the-bat. Worth a check!!
8/10
