Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist- Plot

This Contains the Opening 2o Minutes of the Movie and Sets the Plot
I went out Friday the second to see Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. Going into the movie I thought it was going to be a Napoleon Dynamite type movie, dry but funny. I was somewhat right in that the style of the movie was calm and was not full of action, but it was really good. It was a simple storyline, but the way that it was written draws you in and captures your attention. I would highly recommend seeing it while it is still in the theaters.
Nick has just been dumped by his girlfriend, Trix, but he doesn't know it. Over the six months they have been together he has made her several mixes, or playlists. Trix has just been getting rid of them, but Norah her "friend" keeps saving them, calling their maker her musical soulmate. Also everyones favorite band where's fluffy comes to town
That night Trix takes her new boyfriend to the club where Nick and his gay band were playing. Norah and Caroline (Norah's alcoholic friend) also tag along. Trix then teases Norah for not having a date. Norah then gets Nick to play as her boyfriend in front of Trix, which sends Trix into a jelous state. Caroline gets drunk, the members of Nick's band try to get Norah to make Nick get over Trix, the band members try to take Caroline home but she escapes believing she was kidnapped, Trix chases Nick and Norah all over the place while they attempt to find the secret location of Where's Fluffy. Then everything truely gets started.
It is an enjoyable comedy that I would be comfortable reccomending to anyone above the age of twelve.
