THE FAULT IN OUR STARS (Movie Review) A movie you would like to watch over and over

I was one of the luckiest people on earth to watch
The Fault In Our Stars earlier than the rest of the world, l liked the book so much so I can't help myself from boasting that I was one of the few bloggers/readers who witnessed the #LittleInfinities Screening last May 12, 2014 in Greenbelt Cinema, too bad I was too busy to actually write a review about it, I just do not want the nerdfighters who wasn't able to come to be so envious just like what happened on my personal facebook account, a lot were shocled why I watched it too early:)

This is just a short review so this won't look like a spoiler:)

To those who read the book:

Lucky us that John Green was there all throughout the shooting period so the movie was very faithful to the book, although some scenes were deleted (but relax only the minor ones), the remarkables moments were there, scenes that made the readers and viewers laugh and cry.

There were flaws but there were a lot more to celebrate while watching, it felt different seeing my favorite scenes come to life in the bigscreen with background music and all. I was smiling the whole time with the lighter scenrs and I was actually holding my tears on those heavy scenes but there were moments that tears became uncontrollable and the scenes were so heartfelt so how can I not cry?

One of the few movie adaptations
who won't fail your expectations after reading:)


For those who are not readers:

This is a heartwarming love story of this Century. It's a cancer story about hoping, loving and enjoying life
A lot of life's lesson when you read and when you watch. It features disease and dying on a lighter perspective, Hazel Grace played by Shailene Woodley was very effective in showcasing so much optimism out of a hopeless disease. On the other hand, Gus played by Ansel Elgort was a charmer, new to the business, not that effective but I can't think of any other actor who can do how he played the character.

A movie adaptation that would let you read the movie after watching:)






I informed Kris Aquino, the Philippines Queen of all Media via Instagram a week before the screening, I just didnt know where she got her invites, too bad I went inside the cinema late,when the movie was about to start so I didnt get the chance to have a long conversation but she said Hi when I initiated an hello and goodbye when she had to leave early for her show. I was peeking on her during heavy scenes and she was crying a lot. A testimony that the movie was good and heartwarming.

On her show, she said that it is her favorite movie to date and of course her favorite book of all time and she will rewatch the film on June 5.

If people ask me if the movie was good?
The answer will be:

I will rewatch the film:)
Over and over
