Liberal Arts (2012) movie review

Hey, finally a movie review. This time it's Liberal Arts (2012), for those who doesn't know this guy...

 

Yeah people Josh Radnor, a.k.a Ted Mosby (he looks like wolverine in this picture, no?) starring this movie,  along side with Elizabeth Olsen... 

who also plays the scarlet witch in the upcoming movie Avengers; Age of Ultron.

Okay first let me give you this amazing quote from the movie..

In my opinion this quote has a big role in the movie. Why? Let's find out

Liberal Arts (2012)

This tells a story about a 35 years old Jesse Fisher (Josh Radnor) go to visit his college to attend his English professor's, Peter Holberg (Jenkkins), retirement ceremony. There he meets Zibby (Elizabeth Olsen). And things get interesting when Zibby makes her move towards Jesse, who is very conscious about their age different. When Jesse packs his bag to return home, Zibby gives him a call and asks him to meet up with her at the library. There Zibby gives him a classic compilation with her number, they both promise to write a hand written letter to each other. After several weeks (i think, it's not mentioned in the movie), Zibby asks Jesse to come visit, and that she misses him. After much considerations, Jesse complied. They meet, and talk, and Zibby says that she doesn't care about his age, and they are dating. 

But of course things will get complicated at some point, that i will not say much and you have to find out yourself by watching it. And I forgot to mention, Zac Efron also in this movie. 

There he goes..

Reviews (May contain spoilers):

Personally this is what i usually watched, because i was just browsing on IMDb for a movie to watch, and one thing led to another i found this. And decided to give it a try.

The story line is a bit boring at first, but after Jesse met Zibby that's when the story has seasoning in it. And from what i've seen, the characters are well played, they really acted their age you can see the difference in perspective from their age; young adult and fully mature adult (maybe because their real ages are not much different to the characters) . Also the quote before, i saw it in the movie; Jesse as an adult has more knowledge of life therefore always think things through, while Zibby as a young adult she is always says yes to everything.

Real life situation; somethings just don't work out, somethings just do. Society these days, ahh life is very complicated indeed eh. i see cases like this almost every day honestly, and somehow i'm surprised when things turn out fine. Not that is a bad thing, it's a good thing because it shows people still understand and tolerate each other.

I would say you can watch this movie if you want, just to spent some wasted time. If you don't then it's fine, because you'll not miss much actually especially if you can put things together since i may have tell you some implicit hints.

Rating:

I give it around 5/10. i like it but it's not something i want to watch repeatedly.

Okay so that's all for this movie, movie recommendation will be appreciated.

bye for now people
