Garden State

This movie was incredible. As a massive fan of light romance 80's movies and old action films, I absolutely fell in love. The plot was no where near heavy, the characters were inspirational and once again, Natalie Portman's cute and quirky character played a massive roll in the beauty of this movie. The story, though containing heavy content to do with the death of Zach's mother, managed to stay subtle and tenuous keeping the comedy theme going. An incredible piece and a must watch to all that have the chance to witness the film.

Revisited this gem from my teenage years

I grew up watching this movie in the 2000s, loved it then, and just recently re-watched it for the first time in many years. Definitely feels like a mid 2000s movie. Wow how times have changed. It's still a great movie, whose best scenes are mostly the ones with Peter Sarsgaard. I miss movies like this so much, sad that Hollywood doesn't seem to make them anymore, those introspective arthouse films that defined the teenhood of so many of us growing up in the 2000s.I just recently got into listening to Hugo Kant's music, that kept reminding me of Garden State, so I had to revisit the movie, and it brought back so many memories of my life back then, what I wanted to do, and how life has just kind of drifted along these past several years.I long for travel again.
