Positive and Inspirational

Rating: 8/10 (27 July 2017)

Based on a worldwide best selling novel, the Fault in Out Stars made a severe impact with audiences and helped elevate Shailene Woodley's career to the next level. Fans of the novel having many doubts as to how the film would compare and share with the novel. Compared to 'the Notebook', this film is quite arguably better and features arguably better writing and refreshing performances from its leads Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort showing great chemistry.
A major reason why this film is as praise is due to the positive message, sensitivity of the issues and characters and the authentic feel of the film. In many romance drama teen films, there are silly and over the top forced comedy and they come off as cheesy. This film although deals with a serious matter, plays out in a relatively lighter tone and it works. Featuring likable characters, a clean and good pace, the Fault in Our Stars is quite an interesting tale and better than one expected.
