Garden State
Thursday, Jul 28. 2005 – Category: Movies&TV
I finally got around to watching Garden State. Wow, I’d totally
gotten this movie wrong. When I first saw the trailers for it, I figured it
was some kind of irreverent comedy. And for the first few minutes, when
I realised it was Zach Braff (the Scrubs guy), I thought that was my
confirmation. I was way-off. It was definitely a comedy, but it was
surprisingly serious. The way he wanted to feel emotional turmoil was
really actually quite poignant. It’s strange to realise how a calm
emotion-less face can convey such strong emotion. And the music soundtrack
was great… I’ve already ordered the CD. Then I get to the end, and
realise not only did he star in it - he was the writer and director. Wow.
And that concludes my year old movie review of the day

yeah, garden state rocks. except for the quasi-cheesy ending, it was nearly a perfect movie.
