A different take on cancer. Genius.

Rating: 10/10 (14 January 2016)

I chose to watch this movie simply because my father and I could not find anything that suited both of our tastes. 50/50 didn't seem too dumb (his taste) or too rom-com (my taste). We sure did get lucky with this one. The movie had a little bit of everything without being too much, it's difficult to explain but this is a must see. There were funny parts, romantic parts, and sad parts - so it's hard to really put it into a category. It's kind of a category of its own really. One of the things I enjoyed most is how they portrayed cancer, and how they showed the toll it takes on everyone involved. It was so real. Nothing was sugar coated, I feel like it was a true story. The movie itself was so creatively made and different from anything I have ever seen. All of the actors were perfect for their rolls, and although Rogan is known for funny pointless rolls he did great in this. He kept true to his funny-guy reputation while still having a serious side which was perfect for his character. This is a movie I think mostly anyone would enjoy and instantly became one of my favorites. I will be recommending to everyone. NOW GO WATCH.
