Sadly Over-hyped

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

This one has a story, and plenty of good moments. You can see how the protagonist (Zach) develops his feelings, learns more about himself and his relationship as the drama unfolds. It's essentially a movie about human relationships. The story, however, could have been more coherent if the side plots were more developed. By the end, you get the point the movie is trying to make, but the minor plots could have contributed to it better. The scene when Michael waits on the porch for forgiveness was appropriately emotive for a climax. A dialogue that I remember from this one:'You can't fail if you never give up.'

If you haven't the original Italian movie this is based on, do yourself a favor and watch it instead of this. If you already have watched the remake, you can still go and revisit the story which is handled way better. Of course you will feel differently about the Remake and like it much more than my rating is suggesting at the moment. But if you take my advise you might see where I'm going with this.While Zach and others are doing a decent job, you'd expect the movie to capture the essence way better than it actually does. If you have seen Garden State you might even be disappointed by the lack of effort (or at least it feels like a lack). Relationships are hard work, remakes are even harder work ... or not

I actually liked this movie. It made me think about myself, As i believe every man and woman who is grown up enough could easily relate to this story line. Everyone will go through this phase of his/her life. Everyone suits perfectly in their characters. i loved the acting of Jacinda Barrett. Kind of felt that she over reacted a bit in the movie but that is what movie is all about other wise it wouldn't have lasted more than 30 minutes. It circulates around Love, faith, betray..etc in a relationship but in a well organized way. Makers divided all this contents in a very systematic way amongst all friends in the movie. I liked how the movie happily ended as it should have been. This movie gives a message of faith and Love to the people and shows the importance of trust in a relationship. Well this movie has a mature storyline and every grown up teenager should go see it if they want to have a happy future. i would give it 6 out of 10.

The Last Kiss is a movie about people, relationships and the human nature. It shows,in a very truth full way,some of our fears and anxieties when it comes to be with someone.The story revolves around 4 friends; Izzy, who is not dealing well with a recent break-up and is getting a hard time to let go,Kenny who goes trough life (and women) without committing,Chris a co-worker of Michael that can't handle the pressure of being a good father and the stress his wife creates and Michael who is married to Jenna in what looks like a perfect marriage.The sudden notice of Jenna's pregnancy makes Michael re-think his life and his goals and he starts to feel trapped.Then he meets a college girl and the 2 of them embark in a relationship without thinking trough.I think most of us can relate to what Zach Braff's character is going trough in the earlier beginning of the movie, sooner or later we all question our lives; where it is now and where its going.Not a masterpiece, but so much more then a chick flick. 8/10
