I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Crappy film
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Michael Cera's career continues to regress, helped along by poor movie choices, like this one. He was great in Arrested Development and Juno, both of which were excellent series/movies. Everything else has been mediocre, and this is the worst of the lot.Started off well enough, and I was imagining a John Hughes-like script unfolding. Unfortunately, it just drifted after a point, and resorted to gross-out and otherwise immature comedy. The romantic side seemed contrived, and most of the time didn't make sense.Ultimately, meaningless and boring. Avoid.
A lonely and sad wannabe musician accidentally meets a girl, similar to him, with whom he slowly falls in love. Their adventure takes place during a very busy night in which both were searching for a hard to find concert. A lot of difficult and awkward situations take place but the two manage to keep it together, while their feelings for each other get more and more powerful.It's an enjoyable story which features a combination of emotion, laughter and drama. The two get together nicely although they seem to have nothing in common, and until the end, they manage to overcome their fears and let love take its course. As a downside, it is a bit too superficial in many aspects while inserting some boring and predictable moments from time to time. It ends well so I will recommend it especially to teen movie lovers.
Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008): Dir: Peter Sollett / Cast: Michael Cera, Kat Dennings, Alexis Dziena, Ari Graynor, Aaron Yoo: Teen comedy about relationships that play out within one long evening. Michael Cera and his band scope the town in search of a band named Fluffy. He is dealing with a recent breakup. Kat Dennings plays Norah whose best friend gets drunk and goes missing. She and Nick hook up in search of her. Simple plot is basically a series of adventures of high school seniors in the late hours that includes no adult supervision. Directed by Peter Sollett who previously made the independent film Raising Victor Vargas. Here he is given great locations along with a screenplay that isn't so great. Cera and Dennings are capable young actors reduced to running from scene to scene with facial expressions that do not convince us that they are having a good career moment. Alexis Driena plays Cera's snotty ex-girlfriend who suddenly shows interest when someone else begins paying attention to him. Ari Graynor plays Nora's misplaced drunk friend who wanders aimlessly about before hanging her head in a toilet. We are even treated to a moment where she fishes her gum out of the toilet and puts it in her mouth. Perhaps it was her reaction to the news that the Academy Awards wouldn't be honoring her for this. Standard teen comedy that will likely be on nobody's playlist. Score: 3 / 10
Hey, so first of all I'd like to say that I was never a big Cera fan. First movie I saw him in was Superbad. Kind of liked that movie but I didn't like the character he was playing. After a few movies ( Juno, Scott Pilgrim and Youth in Revolt) I started to see that he's not acting. He is that shy, nerdy kind of man who looks like a sixteen year old and I like it and from that moment on him. Now, about this movie. I know I am kind of late but hey I live in Austria. We get movies like a 100 years later And I don't understand why people say they didn't like it. It's funny, simple and it has everything you need to feel good after. You have love, the character you can hate, the one you can love, and the music. I mean, it wasn't my time, but these songs are good. So, I recommend you watch it and like it. Don't try to interpret to much in such a movie. I give it an 8 out of 10 just because I watched it and did't regret the 90 minutes I spent. I liked it, and you will too.
