"It's just a metaphor"

Rating: 9/10 (14 June 2014)

with being only half interested in watching the film but yet being dragged by my other-half, my expectation for the film was not at a high, i haven't read the book nor even picked it up yet the film seemed flawless in perfecting the beauty of flawed life. The movie is a roller coaster of emotion in its self that takes you on a journey of many feelings and emotion, knowing that cancer plays a role in who the characters are we are immediately set up for a doomed laps of events, this just helps draw us in as we can only wish for the best outcome like any other love story.
To my understanding john green has created a perfect life within a limited time line or what is as close as perfect can get for these two lovers. something so thoughtful and emotion grabbing has been successfully portrayed on the big screen. the acting was exceptional, both play a convincing role with unmatched chemistry for one another, i give it 9/10 as it does nothing but draw you to the unbound love and affection of such a heartbreaking film, I'm not generally a crier but this almost got me there. the movie is brilliant yet not perfect as most movies aren't but remain exceptional, within moments of hazel and Gus meeting its easy to love how easily they fall in love. If you aren't careful you will be hooked in moments and enjoy every minute of it.... but that wouldn't be so bad.
