500 Days of Summer
By: Sachi Dixit
500 Days of Summer isn’t your typical love story, and that’s exactly what makes it
so relatable. Unlike other movies where everything just works out, this one shows that
relationships can be complicated, messy, and don’t always work out. That realism hits
hard as many of us experience it somewhere in our lives.
The movie follows Tom, who falls in love with Summer and imagines their
relationship as perfect. But as days pass, he realizes that might not always be the case.
The film does a great job showing both his highs and lows, and how heartbreak can be
painful and confusing. It’s realistic how feelings change, which a lot of movies skip.
Summer’s perspective also adds depth. Shes not the “perfect girl” or the villain,
shes just someone trying to figure out what she wants. Seeing the impact of her choices
mirrors real-life relationships, as two people might care about each other but still grow
apart.
Overall, 500 Days of Summer is refreshing because it doesn’t pretend love is
perfect. It shows that endings don’t always play out nicely, which is what makes it so
easy to connect with. It’s the kind of movie that sticks with you long after the credits roll.
I’d give it 4.5 out of 5 stars, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to see the
struggles of relationships or just something that feels real and relatable.
