Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

Console best movie i've ever seen.

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Aly_Bird Well that movie is definitely different from it's trailer! The trailer doesn't tell it all or even half! Although I download it because I'm into romantic movies but that one totally exceeded my expectations!!Awesome performance for both Dano and Zoe and the story itself is very amazing and full of things to consider in real life.Without spoiling the material I read once but can't remember where a saying: "If you love someone let him/her go if they came back then it's real if they didn't then they ain't your ones from beginning" .. And that what happened! Simple as!

CinePendejo RUBY SPARKS starts off with a killer premise: a useless schmuck of a writer, suffering from writers block and a breakup from her girlfriend, decided to write about a perfect, ditzy, happy-go-lucky girl spawned from his shallow, unsocial male gaze. But after one Twilight-Zone-Ray-Bradbury night, she ultimately comes to life from the pages and acts like just the perfect character booster for our titular hero. Now to anyone pulling out the Manic Pixie Dream Girl card (lord knows it's not unwarranted based on the first 30 minutes alone), the kicker is that she would grow and adapt as a real human being, blossoming with her own agency instead of acting for someone else.You'd think with a killer premise, they'd come up with some insightful ways this could play out. Maybe a statement of our modern relationship issues, or how women don't get proper credit in fictional literature, or how the world will process to someone like her. Considering the directing duo behind the surprisingly clever LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE, anything is possible right? LOL NOOOPE! For all it's buildup, it sets up as a statement on the Manic Pixie Dream Girl trope only to then make up something even worse. For one thing, even if she did try to make up her own mind, the writer still has control over her by just typing on a keyboard. Yep, she's still basically influenced by man anyway, but it's all ironic right? I seem to get that impression anyway, because otherwise how the f#@k do you end like that with a straight face? After all the 90+ minutes of wasted potential, it decided to end on such an awkwardly staged and hilariously stupid climax ever. Without spoiling, this so-called set piece would be if like if someone threw around a voodoo doll and made it play the hokey pokey. Sure their last film ended with girl stripping to Super Freak on a little beauty pageant, but this is plain f@#ing stupid.And yet somehow it manages to be the one true novel thing about the entire damn movie. The rest of it just feels like a rote, first draft Woody Allen comedy. The characters are either despicable or one-note, the script sorely lacks, Paul Dano was obnoxious, Poor Zoe Kazan tries to liven up the scene with nothing to work with, the final 5 minutes feels like nothing was accomplished, and the whole thing was an overall chore. Only things going for it is Zoe Kazan again, the directors tight filmmaking and that howl of a climax.Much like STRANGER THAN FICTION, though, it goes all in with interesting Kaufman-esque scenarios but can't cash the check. But hey, at least unlike that it didn't LOOK like total pretentious sh!t.

marianajb I knew the moment when I finished the movie that what happened in those minutes, something that you not usually see, happened; something good. I stayed like a week without getting over this movie; I haven't felt like that for a film in a very long time, that night I couldn't sleep just thinking about it, about the everything of it, and it was at that moment that I knew this movie became something of me, one of my favorite motion pictures. I feel like everything in this film is meant to be: the directors, the actors, the time and the place were it was filmed, the story, the wholeness of it. I usually don't like fantasy stories, but in this one, is completely unexpected, and that is what I like the most: to be impressed. Starting with the idea of him as a writer, makes it in a very poetic and romantic way; he even idealizes the idea of his perfect woman; and just the relationship they have, and well... how he controls her at some point, is just perfect and very beautiful. At the end the message of: "if you love someone or something let it go", and I loved the resolution of the movie because it leaves us with the idea of hoping that they come back again. Also the book that he writes "for Her" is like the most perfect, incredible and awesome end for one of the most incredible and awesome films ever. The photography and cinematography and how they used the colors they used according of what was happening in the lives of the main characters, and that looked splendid. The actors, all of them, both the protagonists and the other ones, were right for the role, they knew who to played them and they did it with passion and love for everything that is the seventh form of art. If you are a true lover of good and brilliant movies, this one will definitely blow your expectation. At first and I think that in a way right now to, got me speechless and it really hard for that to happened. This motion picture truly is something. 9.9/10

tr91 Written by and starring Zoe Kazan, Ruby Sparks tells the story of a writer (Paul Dano) who finds romance in the most unimaginable way, with a character in his story coming to life as his lover.The whole film just felt unique and done so well. The two lead actors (Kazan & Dano) had great chemistry. The supporting cast were also very good throughout the film.Ruby Sparks works very well as a drama/comedy with a hint of fantasy. The film flows at a good pace and the characters develop nicely without becoming stale/one dimensional.All in all a very good film which I would recommend to anyone, it just creeps in to my top 10 films of 2012.
