Wow.

Rating: 9/10 (14 June 2014)

I saw this film late one Thursday night and I was blown away by the storytelling of the film. Not only was it captivating it was also immensely emotional. There were a few faults with it, but not enough to warrant it even close to being bad. The characters of Hazel and Augustus had such great chemistry that it didn't even feel as though you were in the cinema. It felt as if you were watching the life of someone else. My only problem with this film was it didn't quite flow as well as it could have. It jumped from scene to scene and the transition scenes were rough. But that might have been the intention. That was the only fault that I was able to find with it. The story was great and it followed the book more of less (other than rough scene jumps) and it had me crying even after the movie was over and done with. All in all it is definitely a movie to be seen by all ages and by both men and women.
