1. The non-linear story-telling method.
It wasn't chronologically shown. There were 500 days but they jumped from one day to another, into the future or into the past, almost randomly. And it worked really well!
2. Zooey Deschanel's big blue eyes!!!
No where close to Zhao Wei's (even if hers are not blue!!!). I found aftr the movie from IMDB that the "film's blue-centric color scheme was done to bring out Zooey Deschanel's eyes".
3. The supporting characters.
I liked all his frens - the deeply committed Paul, the loser in relationships McKenzie and the wise beyond her years Rachel!
4. The songs and music in it.
I honestly dun know any of the songs and can't remember them now - but i know tt while watching the movie, i felt the songs were really good and suitable. And they even had a dance scene - which would have been really good if it involved live singing (like in 'Enchanted').
5. The ending.
No happily ever after ending, almost very realistic and very refreshing. And of course, Autumn!!!! :-)
