After Everything

Yes this general storyline has been used quite a bit lately it seems, but while not radically different this was unique enough to be intriguing. All aspects were well-done (writing, cinematography, acting, etc.), didn't try to be anything more than it is.

I REALLY liked the first half of this movie. There was a lot of potential. The movie already moved at a fast pace but I felt like the second half was way too rushed.

It could have possibly worked better if the movie were longer but it just didn't work for me.

Then we get to the ending. What even was that?!

Again, MAYBE it could have worked if the movie was longer but ultimately, I felt ripped off.

This movie threw all the cliches about romantic comedy/drama films out the bathroom window and started working on its own path and the result was a beautifully crafted piece of art. This is how good movies are done and this (aside from the Notebook) is the only romance movie I'd gladly watch a second time!

This movie gives a simplified, candid, and episodic view of a relationship between two New Yorkers, one of whom is fighting a rare form of cancer. What I really liked is that the two main actors played it straight. There were no cheap jokes or exaggerated situations- it felt like a true depiction of how a fast relationship takes its course, showing both the triumphs and pitfalls.

Now I wasn't moved by this movie and it didn't cause me to think deeply about my life, but this was a refreshing film compared to a lot of works I've seen lately. The ending was cheap and abrupt, yet overall this was a pleasant picture.

How perfect was the first half going ... but the ending brother is very weird ...
