Somewhat to my surprise, I really, really liked Elizabethtown. I liked it even more when I saw it last year, and it was called Garden State.

Honestly, this is a flawed movie, but it's heartfelt, lovingly crafted, full of good ideas, and completely unbelievable. Fine. Maybe I'm just at a point in my life where I respond to movies about emotionally repressed young men who are inexplicably saved by Natalie Portman or Kirsten Dunst. If so, they can keep making this movie every year. I'll keep going to see it—until it happens to me, I guess.
