After Everything

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!

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.

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

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.

Really powerful moving drama showing reactions of certain people in dealing with a young man with cancer. It's a true portrait of what it must be like for some people after they beat the disease. The central relationship between Maika Monroe & Jeremy Allen White is great and real and makes the movie work.
