There was no fault in that masterpiece!

Rating: 10/10 (19 June 2014)

Shailene Woodley adopts the role of Hazel Grace Lancaster so beautifully that it is hard to believe this movie isn't based on a true story. The movie is very coming-of-age but also captures the true sadness of illness. It's great to see newcomers, such as Ansel Elgort who only rose to fame last year, and oldtimers, such as Willem Dafoe, come together for the adaptation of New York Times best seller book by John Green. The casting couldn't be more perfect and the soundtrack took my breath away (no hard feelings Hazel). But it has to be said, my experience of the film was more magical than i could have expected as i witnessed The Fault in Our Stars at an advanced screening two weeks before the actual release in the UK. The people lucky enough to go were given a limited edition poster and were able to watch a Q&A with the cast after the tears had been spilt and the credits rolled. The screening was so spectacular due to all the kids being hard core fangirls and fanboys (there was disapointingly, only one boy representing the males. We all awed, wooed, laughed and cried together and nobody was ashamed to let the whole theatre hear their sobs! It made the movie that much special. John Green is an excellent writer and the movie couldn't be any more representative of his book. 10/10. no questioning the matter :)
