Kenna Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 This movie was fuckin amazing. It can't be put into words, but one of my all time fav movies. I bet this movie will become a cult film. Its an independant movie...written, directed and starred by Zach Braff, the funny guy off the show Scrubs. Its about this guy, Andrew, who has been on depression medication since he was 10, and has been numb to pretty much everything in life. He leaves home to go to boarding school when he's like 16 and after starts his own life in LA. Then goes home for his mother's funeral 9 years later. Stays home for a few days and rediscovers things he missed. He finally becomes civil with his Father, finds true love (natalie portman was amazing in this) and visits with old friends. There's comedy in this too, which balances it out well. You continue to learn new things about him throughout the whole movie which makes you love him more. Its just a beautiful story, and great acting, amazing soundtrack, good filming, good comedy. I think everyone who has ever dealt with depression, or enjoy's a good, true feeling story should see this. There is so much truth to it. Its really beautiful...go see it.

Kenna Posted September 20, 2004 Author Share Posted September 20, 2004 uh oh! did I break a rule of making a thread that already exists? I didn't want to look around to see if someone made one already, and I don't really care. Does it matter? There can be 2. This movie deserves that. Thanks for the update.

cold_kitty Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 i liked it. it's a really simple movie - maybe that's why you can feel overwhelmed after. kudos on the soundtrack. it's the first movie soundtrack i've ever purchased (second i own - swiped my sister's copy of the romeo&juliet soundtrack).
