500 days of summer

INTRODUCTION

This movie is about love and life. Tom works at a greeting card company as a card writer. One day, on a meeting, his boss introduces the board room to summer, his new assistant. He fell in love with her beauty at first sight. He tells his best friend  that he likes summer so much. While at first, he plays thing cools, he convinced that she is the one. He spends two weeks to know her well but in awkward attempts to initiate conversation. Things getting better when his best friend invited him to a karaoke by the following evening.  Tom arrives at the bar and saw his best friend  is singing. He sees summer and she seem happy to see him. Summer and Tom become closer when they always spend time together go out and having fun in the city. They share everything what they want to share. Summer’s only pretend Tom as a friend but tom feels more than that. Then they  were apart. And after a few days they met again and tom’s thinking that he still have a chance towards summer. Badly summer is going to married other man. Then he tried to lives without summer till the end. After that, he met autumn on his way to a job interview. Autumn says that she has seen him before at the bench in tom’s favourite spot, which is her favourite spot as well. Tom smiles and introduces himself. She smiles and introduces herself too. Her name is autumn. Then, on the screen, it reads “Day 1”, signifying that this is the first day of his relationship with autumn.

MORAL VALUES

There`s a lot of moral values in this movie. Firstly, don’t give a hope to somebody when you don’t want to take for granted. It can be proven by Summer`s acting to Tom. She treated him very well until Tom feel that Summer`s is the one. Not only that, Summer`s always spent together with Tom make he feel more than that.

Next, don’t lose hope from the one we love because everything happens there`s a reason. Maybe there`s a reason why she`s not for us but it doesn’t mean we are not good enough for her .  For instance, Tom never lose hope in love. Even though, Summer refuse to accept his love, he never lose hope. He still hoping the best from Summer. At the end of the story, his love accepted by other character which is Autumn.

Last but not least, do not expect too much about something that would never belongs to us. Tom hope that after they were met again, after they were apart for a long time, their relationship will getting better. But it’s just a dream. That would never happen because as he looks at summer’s ring, he knows that a dream cannot be a reality. Summer will get married with other man. So, there is no second chance for him to get her back.



THE CHARACTER THAT YOU LOVE THE MOST AND WHY

The character that I love the most is Tom’s little sister, Rachel. Whenever tom is upset, she will makes him explain what happened. She always there for him whether in easiest or hardest time. Comfort him with her advises and her smiles. She is willing to hear Tom’s problem although she is just a kid. Even she is just a kid but she knows to give her fully support to her brother. She also can be categorized as a matured girl who can understand adult’s problem. Without her, I think Tom will lose his hope to survive. She gives his spirit to still survive even without summer. It shows that she love her brother so much.

YOUR OPINION ABOUT THE MOVIE

Basically we know that this movie give us impact on love and hope.  A man seeking for the true love but the women refuse it. Not only that, the man never stop his love until the woman is married with other man.
This movie is good to watch for adults person. Its not suitable for kids or teenage as they are still under age. They shouldn’t watch this movie because some part/ scenes in this movie are too sexually.
Illegal sex should be avoid. Maybe this cases are not touched too much in American lifestyle but in Islamic country its illegal and no sex before they get married.

CONCLUSION

In short, I love this movie and I can concluded that everyone should watch this movie. For those who always failed in love, just be cool. This is God`s plan. Just wait and keep watch. There`s an angel will come to us and show the true of love.
