500 days of Summer is a story of a guy who gets his heart broken and the girl who broke it. The haphazard storyline was hard to follow. The male lead, Tom, falls desperately in love with a girl, Summer, who thinks that relationships shouldn’t exist and that love itself doesn’t exist at all. In the end their roles switch when Summer finds love, while Tom is left broken-hearted. Every scene was a different day in their relationship, but the days never went in order. Therefore, day 327 was before day 4, but after day 426 and so on and so forth. The lack of flow and chronological order made the movie incredibly hard to follow. Since I was unable to follow the story line for most of the movie, I was confused; then, discouragingly I gave up and was extremely bored. It definitely felt like 500 days that’s for sure!
