Got what I expected

Rating: 6/10 (4 October 2014)

I didn't read the book nor did I really want to watch the film but I was pleasantly surprised with it and I never got bored. I also liked all the characters and cared about them. Always a big thing when you care about the main characters.
It's a love story no doubt about it. It was an interesting take on young adults who have cancer. I think some people need to realize that we take a lot for granted. The little things we complain about in our everyday lives are so minuscule compared to the things others go through. Yes I know this is a work of fiction, but there are real people out there dealing with the diseases these characters have to deal with.
Shailene Woodley does a very good job as the main character and I for one believe she will continue to get better as she grows older. The chemistry is there as well with her and the love interest.
Overall, it's a good movie but a bit depressing so I probably won't watch it again.
