Review of The Fault in Our Stars (2014) by Ramyo — 08 Jun 2014
Another installation of a film adaption of a macabre writing genre more commonly known as sick lit. Aimed specifically to appeal to the Twilight crowd, this movie does not do the book justice. Too many omitted scenes mar the character development of people who become defined by nothing more than their illness.
The numerous clichés (eg they both grab something at the same time because they're so in sync). The movie purposes removes the grittiness that grounded the book in reality to create an almost fairy tale like story with a dash of cancer thrown in for tear jerking.
Woodley seems to be this generation's Kristen Stewart and has the lack of emotion to match.
