This movie really was over hyped ever since it was ever announced. I remember having read the book ages ago without anyone even knowing the bloody thing existed. Kudos to John Green for having made this book. To make it fair, I'm not gonna judge this in comparison to the book, because I believe that movies and books are different sets even though they might have the same story. Basically, I'll pretend I never read the book at all and judge it as a movie as a whole. The premise of the movie mainly involves how a couple struggles their life relationship due to cancer and other such illnesses. Well, the first impressions of most people would probably be that of expecting it to be the usual 'tweeny teenage romance' where everything falls in place and there is a happy ending. But this movie is smart, instead of following the usual pattern most movies fall into (twilight), it went through it's way to best describe how much these characters are going through by making them as realistic and relatable as possible. I have to admit, I didn't shed tears like other the viewers. But that didn't mean that it wasn't emotionally traumatizing to see these two determined souls to be torn apart due to their unfair conditions. All in all, this movie was incredibly showcased, great acting, character relatability, and is very well deserving of being one of the most successful and hyped films this summer.
