500 Days of Summer is a critically acclaimed romantic movie. Although sometimes I wonder, are the critics delusional? Simply trying to find depth and complexity in a trivial plot accompanied with equally irritating characters.Surely a film with a $7 500 000 budget and a director like Marc Webb, director of The Amazing Spider Man, would prove to be a cinematic masterpiece shaping the world of media. However this movie was simply putting on the arty vibe of intellect for the easily amused, but falls flat once its lackluster story and pathetic attempts at humor bring its unimaginative script to mind. Although with a gross of over $32 000 000 ,as of 2009, there must be some fans.
