Movies

I can see why some wouldn't like it, however you're in the minority:

Posted by: lobogotti on Feb 18, 06:01 in response to Laprawler509's post I thought the film was a snooze fest

IMDB has it at #230 highest rated film of all time by IMDB users: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1022603/Ā  8.1 out of 10 with 50K+ votes.

The Critics have it at 86% on Rotten: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/500_days_of_summer/
Consensus: A clever, offbeat romantic comedy, 500 Days of Summer is refreshingly honest and utterly charming.
#2 best-reviewed romantic film of 2009.
