Review of Paper Towns (2015) by Lesia M — 25 Jul 2015
Really doesn't leave as much of an impact as last year's largely, heartfelt 'Fault In Our Stars' but John Greene's best-selling book gets a collection of talented youths to act sincerely and realistically.
Margo calls her home a 'paper town' full of 'paper people'; everything is uglier upclose and people cant draw themselves the way they want to.
But Quentin being in love with her one night gets the chance to have some fun and take a few risks to leave his sheltered comfort zone.
Margo loves pulling pranks on the ones whom have wronged her and leaves all kinds of clues that she actually became one of her own making.
She vanishes without a trace and Quentin believing in love teams up with his buddies to search for her.
The movie is pretty well-intentioned plus theres a sweet little cameo by a really good actor but the resolution itself is poorly-handled making the whole purpose seem pretty useless.
Like I said though Nat Wolf and Cara Delevingne are terrific and they do avoid several clichés in the process.
In order to be found you have to lose yourself in certain things.
