Very good movie

Rating: 9/10 (1 March 2012)

This film is about a cancer victim who remains relatively sane and calm after finding out about his illness, compared to all those around him. His friends, family, therapist, acquaintances all go crazy. This is a great premise for a story about cancer. I enjoyed this film very much. Also, I disagree with those few who criticize Seth Rogen's performance. I think he is brilliant. There are so many men essentially like his character, hard and profane on the outside, who have trouble communicating their feelings, with a soft lump hidden on the inside. I think he portrays this type brilliantly. Joseph Gordon Leavit (sp?) is terrific in the lead role. He is perfect for the role and gives such a measured performance, it builds beautifully. And Angelica Huston is so solid and believable as the mother.
