500 DAYS OF SUMMER (B)

Starring: Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Story: This is a story of boy meets girl, begins the wry, probing narrator of 500 Days of Summer, and with that the film takes off at breakneck speed into a funny, true to life and unique dissection of the unruly and unpredictable year-and-a-half of one young man’s no-holds-barred love affair.

Rated: PG-13

Bottom line: It’s topped of with a very thick layer of Hollywood sap toward the end but don’t let that turn you away from this clever, engaging and off-beat movie that also happens to be one of the best romantic-comedies I’ve seen in a long time.
