That makes people look like theyve been binging emotions inside a bunker , sniffing and snorting teargas, just to be able to still feel alive after viewing a film like this, because its a sad true story with extreme high and lows, and extremely disney guttsey, and remember toothpaste wont releve the pain so dont smear that into your eyes.
its a cancer in youth film plus music talent on the plot, with swirling talents of the acts, and a cosy musical content that that lures you into the abyss of deathg and despair. its clever but genericly made, even though based on a true cloud(story)
so if youre babysitting tonight with your love one, balm yourself in handkerchiefs, youll need them, i will for sure evade and evacuate miself from the premises when my better half through an awful lot of years will be introduced to this sadeyed megamonster deathromcom flick, the mourning usually lasts 3 days and three nights after an event like this( and i will never forget the titanic days)
so im grumpy and old and not easy to frail, but it took me over the edge , so have a look at my recommends

"Well prepared ton of tissue because this movie is gonna be really emotional, god this movie is amazing, how they build the climax scene it's was really amazing, the acting is no doubt they're are a perfect cast, it's more sad that we know this is a true story, this movie is inspiring, when I first see the duration of the movie is 2 hours in my head is like this is gonna be long and maybe boring, but it's not, 2 hours is a perfect duration for this movie, overall it's very recommend movie"
Zach's story is absolutely inspiring. I'm glad that this movie does him justice. Great performances and great music. I recommend it.
Omg do not watch without tissues! This was so freakin good and sad. Love the music, story and characters. So touching.
What a beautiful effort directed by Justin Baldoni, based on the real life of a young teenager taken to soon. It's wholesome and uplifting despite being an ultimately tragic story. You know when reading the synopsis - a teenager with cancer, theres bound to be pulls on the heart strings. And this delivers.
I had fear it would go down the same old path we've seen before, but this is done so well and you cant beat things inspired by true stories.
I was pleasantly surprised. Disney always winning my heart ...even into my thirties...
Did you know
- TriviaZach's personal items were used in the movie, including the signature quilt on his bed, "Pants." tee, red plaid shirt worn when recording the song "Clouds", his red and black crutches, and a pair of crazy mirror eye sunglasses.
- GoofsEarly in the story, it says on the screen that it is the fall of 2012. Zach's mother takes him to the hospital and a shot of the University of Minnesota Masonic Children's Hospital in Minneapolis is shown. In the background you can clearly see US Bank Stadium. However, they didn't even break ground on building US Bank Stadium until 2013 and it didn't open until 2016, so it wouldn't have been there in 2012.
