Review of Garden State (2004) by Samuel H — 24 Sep 2014
First off I need to say, the music is wonderful. It won a grammy and is clearly deserving of the award. Zach Braff and Natalie Portman have so much chemistry, its amazing. The movie is ridiculously quirky, and so clearly made by Zach Braff.
The movie is a messy assortment of scenes and yet, it holds it's own because of that. Zach just focuses on charm. That's all that the movie needs. It's not about telling the greatest story, but rather telling a story, with wonderful moments throughout that have meaning for some reason.
And to be honest that's what life is like. For a first-time director Zach Braff proved that he knows how to make a wonderful film. See it!
