Great chemistry wasted on a very, very flimsy movie
10 November 2009
Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel are amongst the more interesting actors of their generations. Levitt wisely chooses roles that challenge and as a result he's developed into a fine young actor with great potential for future projects. Deschanel's delightful off centre kookiness somehow does not wear off. They work really well together, which is ultimately what makes "500 Days of Summer" something of a let down. Had their roles been played by lesser talents this movie would surely not have attracted much attention. The chemistry between these intriguing leads is wasted on this very, very flimsy movie.

You may enjoy it as it passes before you're eyes, but the next day you'll most likely have forgotten it completely. Pity.
