After it looks as if she's left his life for good this time, Tom Hansen reflects back on the just over one year that he knew Summer Finn. For Tom, it was love at first sight when she walked into the greeting card company where he worked, she the new administrative assistant. Soon, Tom knew that Summer was the woman with whom he wanted to spend the rest of his life. Although Summer did not believe in relationships or boyfriends - in her assertion, real life will always ultimately get in the way - Tom and Summer became more than just friends. Through the trials and tribulations of Tom and Summer's so-called relationship, Tom could always count on the advice of his two best friends, McKenzie and Paul. However, it is Tom's adolescent sister, Rachel, who is his voice of reason. After all is said and done, Tom is the one who ultimately has to make the choice to listen or not.
Leave your thoughts about (500) Days of Summer.
| TheShiznit.co.ukAli GrayInventive, original and hugely relatable, (500) Days Of Summer is the perfect screen deconstruction of a relationship, for once, from the man's point of view. |
| Access HollywoodScott A. MantzOh, (500) Days of Summer, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways -- out of order, and from a list of, well, 500 (you'll know why when you see it)... |
| QuickflixSimon Miraudo(500) Days of Summer is as close to perfect as a movie gets. A highly subjective claim? Sure, but so are all movie reviews, and this is hardly the time to get into that argument. |
| Cinema SightWesley LovellAn endearing, well-acted film that takes a conventional premise and turns it into something wonderfully unconventional. |
| Fan The FireSam BatheHopefully writers Neustadter and Weber have already got another project in the works. |
| MovieTime, ABC Radio NationalJason Di Rosso500 Days of Summer never quite convinces, despite the charm of the leads. This is wannabe indie, and these two Hollywood names are too 'big' to play beautiful nobodies navigating a heart-wrenching misunderstanding. |
| Observer (UK)Philip FrenchHighly recommended either to enjoy as a couple or wallow in alone. |
| Total FilmMatt MuellerA playful, witty, disordered telling of a fractured romance. Bringing fresh zing to a genre prone to predictability, Webb crafts a (not-in-) love story about feeling bad that's infectiously good. |
| Sunday Mirror (UK)Mark AdamsA modern romance for grown-ups... a sweet-natured, funny, deeply-romantic tale that brims with energy and is blessed with top-notch performances. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerA charming, funny and wonderfully inventive romcom that's easily one of the best films of the year. |
