Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday, but I realized some bigger dreams of mine.

Yesterday I went to go see the movie "500 Days of Summer" in theaters. It came to my hometown a few weeks after it was released and I just haven't gotten around to seeing it til now. And since the other movie I want to see was only playing at the theater in the next town over and I didn't want to make the trip out there on a Saturday (I think a Friday would be better to see a movie out there), I went to see this one instead.

"500 Days of Summer" tells the story of Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and Summer (Zooey Deschanel), two friends who are not sure where they stand in their relationship. The movie jumps around the different days of their relationship, beginning at day 1 and ending at day 500. They really like each other and do some romantic things, but Summer isn't sure that they should be boyfriend and girlfriend, as she doesn't really believe in true love.

The two leads are both very likeable (and Joseph Gordon-Levitt is adorable) and they made a sweet couple. The movie itself was very sweet and I wouldn't mind seeing it again. Some of my favorite scenes took place in a karaoke bar, which reminds me of great summer nights that I spent singing karaoke with friends or family.

This movie is definitely one of my favorites of 2009 and I will definitely be buying it on DVD. This movie definitely earns **** out of ****.

I hope I continue to have good movie going experiences when I see "Love Happens", "Fame" and "Whip It". All of these movies are on my list of 5 movies to see this fall, and I hope I can get to see them.

Love y'all,
