One Paragraph Review: 500 Days of Summer

500 Days of Summer is a fun and entertaining film that, for the most part, balances an off-beat attitude with a sense of honesty. The film is at its worst when it rehashes typical romantic movie cliches for no apparent reason, but at its best when it's making a point that most "romance" films don't (or can't) ever bother with. In the end, 500 Days of Summer does things just enough differently to make it worth your while, but is just enough like other love stories to prevent it from really being amazing.
