Not impressed/disappointed

Rating: 5/10 (18 June 2014)

I was really looking forward to seeing this movie and was actually pretty disappointed after seeing it. I'm not one for romantic sad stories, but there are a few movies out there in this category that I have loved. I heard from many that they loved this movie and they cried the whole time... I don't see how. I didn't shed a tear, and I was expecting just from the previews on TV that the boyfriend also had cancer and would be the one to die. Maybe I just was mentally prepared for it to happen and that's why I wasn't so shocked. I just didn't like it.. The part when they're in Amsterdam visiting the author I feel like that could have been better. I was honestly bored watching this. The actors were okay but the story it self I wasn't "hooked" on like most people were. I'm guessing the book was a lot better and was what caused all of the hype to see this..
