Is it just me or is Zach Braff kinda sexy?

I left The Last Kiss actually thinking he was kinda cute. Okay, he sort of looks cartoonish and slightly odd but just like Scrubs and Garden State he has that good guy quality that can get ya crushin'. Personally, I like his full lips and self-deprecating humor. What can I say? I'm a lips gal.

The Last Kiss is impressive and ambitious. Directed by Tony Goldwyn and written by Paul Haggis, it was better than it had to be. I was amazed at the truth in the writing. This movie tackles the very common but little talked about issue of the reality of relationships. Not everything is butterflies and rainbows.

Braff's character Michael finds himself sliding into 30 and expecting a baby with his girlfriend Jenna played by Jacinda Barrett. It's hard to imagine this is the same girl from that train wreck called Real World Europe. Michael must come to terms with growing up and settling down with one person for the rest of his life. He's not sure he's prepared for that last kiss. His resolve is further tested by a lively co-ed played by Rachel Bilson. The movie also follows his friends as they navigate similar issues of responsibility. The Last Kiss tackles that devastating moment when you realize you're life is going to be closer to your parent's life than you're comfortable with.

The most compelling parts of the film center around Michael's tortured dilemna and Jenna's reaction to his situation. Blythe Danner is a revelation as Jenna's mother. She gives a heartbreaking performance as an older woman searching for meaning and passion in her marriage. I was riveted and brought to tears through the majority of her scenes. Amazing. Tom Wilkinson held his own with her.

The Last Kiss signals budding big film careers for Braff and Barrett. Both continue to show promise in their film selections.
