It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Yash Wade
Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

I really felt so sad that this film didn't get any nomination for the Oscar , Golden Globe or even for the Bafta Awards The story is so strong , the leading roles by Amanda Peet and Dermot Mulrone were very brilliant. Even the Director (Ed Stone) gave us a very good Job.the story is a bout a man and a woman falling in love ( Both having a cancer) but without knowing that the other one had it too. Amanda Peet gave us a magnificent Job especially when she gets very angry and hysterical after she thought that her boyfriend (aDermot Mulroneynd) knew about her disease.I always love to watch a film with a good Final scene because ( in my opinion) If the film hadn't a good end it will lose almost everything, and trust my the final scene in this film is so lovely and it will make u feel happy even if the story is so sad.

I had no idea what the movie was about since i had queued it ages ago. Well...this was no light-hearted comedy, to put it lightly! I ended up sobbing through the entire second half and kept crying for an hour afterward. I just decided to let myself go with it and embrace it--forgetting what that can do to you the next day--and woke up with a vicious headache.But it was very good. Amanda Peet was flawless in this role. I love how she never overacts in her films and this was no exception. Mulroney was also very good & I don't usually care for him. Some may call this film too sentimental. To which i say: So what? Be sure to grab a big roll of paper-towels. And make it Bounty (the quicker dryer-upper.) And take 2 Advil ahead of time or you'll pay for it later. I sure did. This is not one of those gratuitously depressing films.~NN

But this is one film deserving the full marks. I loved the characters and how they came to terms with their situation and how in love they found their strength to accept it and use that time to enjoy life.I love how they took the risk to fall in love and how they became stronger and not let the darkness and depression overcome them.All I can say is that it's simply a beautiful film that leaves you sad yet nothing but pride and love for the characters Griffin and Phoenix. It one of the reasons why I think Amanda Peet is also a very talented but understated actress. Its a shame that gems like this film never really get the exposure that it truly deserves.

For a storyline that supposed to discuss the most sensitive topics in the world (which are life and death) the movie failed to convey the proper emotions or the certain level of connection that is expected between the actors and the viewers. On screen, the actors did not display the kind of chemistry that a "reel love team" should evoke, which was surprising when both have played commendable roles in romantic films and shows (i.e. Mulroney in "My Bestfriend's Wedding" and "The Wedding Date" and Peet in "Jack and Jill"). Needless to say, the movie can easily bore or annoy someone. I honestly believe that the way the movie presented the life of two people destined to fall in love with each other and eventually experience death, has been an utter insult to the viewers' intellect and emotions. It was an absolute waste of money, time and effort going to the cinema just to see this movie. It was very disappointing indeed.
