Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist

Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist straddles the line between the moronic teenage comedies that we have seen lately (which I love by the way) and a teenage rom-com. And it does a pretty good job of it. Receiving a 72% on the Tomatometer is no small task so it came to me with some build up. Take a look:






Make no mistake, this is most definitely a teenage movie with juvenile type comedy so if that doesn't float your boat then steer clear. If you secretly long for a return of those days, if you still have that sense of humor, and you still believe in puppy love then you won't be disappointed.

Michael Cera, a fixture in the teenage movies, plays his typical bumbling and hilarious self. His delivery is priceless.
















Kat Dennings is an entirely different animal. She has been in more than her share of movies and even had a bit part on ER. At the ripe old age of 22 she has very good range, an infectious smile, and good girl charm. She has "it" and she is here to stay. It's fun to watch her grow.
















Alexis Dziena plays the beautiful, but highly shallow, H.S. girl that every girl hated and every boy loved. She does it very well and with her looks she could be another one on the come. Hopefully she will continue to develop her craft and not "go Sweden" on us like Ms. Alba.
















Get used to those faces because you are going to continue to see more of them.

This is a solid teenage rom-com, not spectacular, but if you are in the mood for silly fun one evening you should pick up a copy. The soundtrack is fabulous and the New York backdrop provides a nice touch.

3 stars.
