    Throughout the movie I had thought this girl could only be the fabrication of a man. But the story was written by Zoe Kazan who plays Ruby.

    A surprisingly refreshing film. The performances are warm and honest, especially from Zoe Kazan who as co-star also wrote this enjoyable and intelligent screenplay. See this film.

    "Ruby Sparks" is a curveball delight, the work of a serious-minded joker. Karan carries this film with disarmingly sweet performance. This romantic comedy gets under your skin as it knowingly explores both the writing process and the nature of relationships. I give it 4 stars. Both fun and fresh.
