Add a CommentSeriously, I didn't find the movie entertaining as one would define it as an art as well as entertainment form. I have to say the word and I haven't used it ever in my comments here aside that quite a number of comments use it. It's predictable obviously. It's your typical American young adult movie about dating, buddies with a little twist on cancer to spice it up a bit but that's just it....nothing new.
great movie, its not about the plot but about the journey through healing. it could teach people alot
Really simple movie. Sweet at times, funny in others, and then has moments of real sadness. I appreciated the fact that it had an independent feel and wasn't overly glorified, Hollywood-style.
I thought this was really good. It made me laugh and cry.
Really good film. Both lead actors are terrific and even the small roles are well done. I highly recommend this one.
I was going back and forth on this one, but decided in the end I did like it. Interesting story.
Not one of the best black comedy films but it's certainly heartwarming. The film follows the a man and his battle with cancer. The doctors told him that his type had a low survival. Marked by sadness and shock, the cancer survivor tries live the life of every normal person, with the help of his often crude friend. Together they use humor as part of the healing process.
Funny, and nice to see a movie with this subject matter handled with very little schmaltz. A real pleasant surprise.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt shines in this black comedy about a young radio-broadcaster who finds out he has tumor growing along his spine. Gordon-Levitt is an underrated character actor, you get drawn into every nuance as he carries out antipathy, pain, fear and frustration through-out the entirety of the film. He is supported by the duffy, but well-meaning best friend (who is played by Seth Rogen) an over-protective mother (Ms. Huston). And a neurotic therapist (Anna Kendrick) I can't praise this movie enough.
Sweetly similar to "Bucket List": a bit cruder. (Don't think that's possible?) Good story of friendship: those that last, and those that don't. I was a wee bit surprised by the "happy" ending.
