Who saw the movie "garden state" and what did think of it?
I love it. It's one of the few movies I have purchased to watch again and again. Parts of it amuse me so much, and parts of it make me cry. It's sincere and beautiful.
Reply:A very promising film debut by Zach Braff.





The plot isn't all that original, the movie isn't all that flawless, but "Garden State" has a unique and sincere quality which make it totally differ from other flicks. In short, this movie is "real" and sensational.





Let's not forget about the acting. Zach was lucky enough to have two of the very best young actors starring in his movie: Natalie Portman and Peter Sarsgaard. Especially Nat Portman, her Sam is so lovable that I just want to give her a big huge. Her smile lights up the screen. NP's character and acting are definitely the highlights of "Garden State".





8 out of 10. Very touching.

Reply:I thought it was absolutely brilliant, and to this day it is my favorite movie. Everything from the indie way it was shot, to natalie portman's performance, to the funny but heartfelt and insightful dialogue make it so I fell in love with it. The soundtrack is inescapable and timeless.





Fun fact from the commentary on the dvd- the ending scene where they kiss and a light comes up behind them...TOTALLY not planned, they were filming at LAX and one of the janitor's from the airport passed in front of a motion sensor door, and it opened perfectly on their heads. So cute.
