I also liked Laura Derns performance as Hazels Mum and Willem Dafoes performance (always good) gives weight to the saying that you should never meet your heroes as it can be a disappointment. The main reason for this is that I found Gus and Hazel believable and very likeable. I'll admit to finding The Fault In Our Stars a bit too sickly sweet at times but when it scores, it scores very well. Hazel and Gus are heavily influenced by a book about a character who goes through the same experience as them except that the novel ends abruptly and this is a source of irritation for the both of them. Their parents try their best to be supportive whilst at the same time giving them space but they find this balance difficult at times.
Hazel is more insular and reserved and is probably caused by the isolation forced upon her by the ongoing treatment. Gus is full of himself but not in an arrogant way, I thought it more of an inner confidence. Others who think you are better off not knowing what you are missing might see it less positively.Ī story about 2 teens (Hazel and Gus) who meet at a cancer support group might not immediately seem like something you would want to watch but it is funny at times and very positive in the main. Those like me who think it's better to have the good for however long than none at all will see it one way. How you view this story might depend on your opinion on loss. But it does what it does well - and that includes bringing a tear to the eye.Any film that can force me to shed a tear gets extra marks and The Fault In Our Stars qualifies in this regard. It’s chiefly a fantasy: a romanticised tale of a short life that brushes the nasty stuff under the carpet. Dei un medicament miraculos i-a prelungit viaa, Hazel Grace Lancaster, n vrst de 16 ani, are impresia c de cnd se. Genurile acestui film online sunt: Dram, Romantic. Acest film a avut premiera pe data de May. The Fault In Our Stars isn’t for cynics and it has its credibility-stretching moments, from the actions of cantankerous author Peter Van Houten (Willem Dafoe) to various scrubbed-up hospital scenes.

It’s also quite brave for a mass-market film to feature a heroine wearing a breathing tube throughout. Performances are likable and the casting’s on the money: Elgort (Woodley’s brother in Divergent) has a flirtatious sparkle while not an obvious hunk, while Woodley maintains the fresh-faced girl-next-door look that should win over the young target market. Hazel’s parents’ strained faces speak volumes as do Gus’ cavalier jokes that help him avoid the truth. Like the (bestselling) source novel by John Green, The Fault In Our Stars explores characters as much by what they don’t say as what they do. Laura Dern puts in a sensitive performance as the kindly, smiling mother fighting back the tears, torn between indulging her daughter and protecting her. Highest level of melodrama I have ever seen is in few movies like the fault in our stars and that was way too far realistic than any really real film here. While 16 year-old Hazel narrates, this also takes a look at the effect her condition has on her family.
It’s also funny: Gus and Hazel indulge in gallows humour rather than self-pity, though their resilience doesn’t stretch to unlikely levels. That’s just one of the refreshing spots of table-turning in what could have been a formulaic Hollywood tear-jerker. But this isn’t all about a dying girl popping her cherry: it’s actually love interest Gus (Ansel Elgort) who’s the virgin here. A teen cancer drama like a rite of passage for a former child actress these days: Dakota Fanning did it in Now Is Good now Shailene Woodley stars as a cancer patient with a similar desire to live life to the full while she can.
