Pardon
me while I dry my tears. I won’t say much about this movie, because it was
basically just a really good adaptation of a really good book. I feel as though
I cannot accurately determine it’s cinematic quality, because all I saw when I watched
was the book come to life.
I’m
not a huge Shailene Woodley fan, but her acting was spot on during this movie,
and her tears became mine. It’s such a good teen movie, but also one that all
other ages can enjoy as well. It conjures up feelings of awkward first loves
that everyone can relate to.
One
of my favorite aspects of the film was the animation used to bring Hazel and
Gus’s text conversations to life. Their texts are a big part of the story, and
it was a simple, artistic way to convey their adorable relationship.
I
thoroughly enjoyed the movie, as I know all the devoted fans of the novel will
too, but I don’t think it will be one that I will be able to watch again and
again. It’s just too heartbreaking. But I suppose that’s all part of the charm.
IMDb rating: 8/10
