This is a classic story about terminally ill teenager with a cliched bucket list. Although there is nothing novel to the plot, the cast is on point, music is refreshing and the filming locations are beautiful. Watching this won't be a life changing experience, but it won't be a waste of your time either.

Not many movies have launched an emotional grappling hook into me, but this one did! It had me smiling for the first 3/4 of the movie, then eating ice cream with tears in it for the last 1/4 of it! I don't tear up easily, but I'm glad to see a movie out there with some substance to it nowadays!

It's a good movie definitely worth seeing. It has an interesting take on terminal illness and I think it has a nice balance between comedy and drama. I especially loved the jokes that make you wonder if it's ok to laugh at them. The performances of the two leading actors Asa Butterfield and Maisie Williams were also very very good.

The first half of the movie, I previously thought, was superficial. Skye and Calvin had so much dynamics together yet it could have been executed in a way that viewers could find it more profound. While Maisie Williams had an amazing performance, Asa Butterfield's acting fluctuates throughout the movie.

However, the second half shows why it deserves a 10 stars for me. In theatre, this type of illness-death story has been told plenty of times, creating a good number of conventions and cliche for the genre. This movie gives you something completely different. It depicts a beautiful and wonderful platonic friendship that people have rarely seen even though we desperately need one (despite the fact that deep down inside, we still ship them because of the chemistry they had together). In addition, it deals with cancer and death in the most brutal yet very blunt and honest way, which hits you really hard at your emotion.

I love the direction it chose to take. It's cute and vibrant and filled with energy, even till the last minute of the movie, despite how tough the problem they were dealing with.

Personally, as a person around their age who is also working on figuring out myself, I relate to them considerably and feel inspired significantly by this movie. It's an important one. One that I would love to recommend to everyone.

For a while... this movie made forget arya stark, just skye
