REEL DEAL: The Fault In Our Stars REVIEW

Teen Love is often stereotyped as somethings that is very childish and juvenile in understanding the ways of love and the world. However, John Green's novel "The Fault In Our Stars" turns its into one "sick" love story.

Despite the plot cliches that would be expected for a drama, it had its own appeal of connecting to the audiences. With an story of friends having terminal illness, they find comfort, friendship, and love in each other. The friendship shared by Agustus Waters and Hazel Grace Lancaster is something not everyone who have to go to as they are afflicted with sickness and their days are uncertain. 


Probably YOLO (You only live once) could be another term for this book/film as they would go to different heights and places just to fulfill their bucket list if ever they are bound to be. But unlike the mainstream, they literally would experience once-in-a-lifetime opportunities because they knew it could be their last.  I have to admit, I cried thrice for scenes that had a certain feeling of love, nostalgia, and even my values.   

REEL DEAL: Ansel Elgort - Stars Shining Bright

One of this generation’s most remarkable heartthrob, multi-talented young actor Ansel Elgort takes his most challenging role yet in the most-awaited love story of the year in “The Fault In Our Stars.”

“The Fault In Our Stars” celebrates the power of young love in all its magic, power and complexity where Elgort takes on the role of Augustus ‘Gus’ Waters, a teenager who is in remission from his osteosarcoma who met Hazel (Shailene Woodley) at a cancer support group in their community.  Based on the bestselling novel by John Green, the movie is the story of two remarkable teenagers who fall in love and embrace life despite the strong odds against them. Both are smart, funny and sarcastic. When they meet at a support group, Hazel Grace Lancaster is instantly smitten with Augustus Waters. The feeling is mutual. Despite dealing with serious health concerns on a daily basis, health doesn’t dominate life for Augustus and Hazel. Far from it. They are normal teenagers, excited about first love and getting to know each other. It’s clear from the start that there is strong chemistry between this attractive pair. They don’t see eye to eye on everything, but their connection is powerful and they both have a great sense of humor about their circumstances.   

REEL DEAL: Ed Sheeran's Song in "The Fault In Our Stars"

John Green’s global bestseller struck a chord not only with young adults, but with readers of all ages, when it came out in 2012.

It tells the story of Hazel Grace Lancaster (Woodley) and Gus Waters (Elgort), who are immediately drawn to each other when they meet at a cancer support group. Friendship and a shared sense of humor turn into something much deeper for the pair and we are swept along on their extraordinary journey as they embark on a quest that takes them thousands of miles away from home, to Amsterdam.
