The fault in our stars blue

The Fault in Our Stars

Review

Review by Brian Orndorf, June 5, 2014

7 / 10

There are tearjerkers that carefully extract emotion from the audience through precise screenwriting, editorial timing, and tasteful performances. �The Fault in Our Stars� practically has interns stationed underneath theater seats peeling onions. It�s an aggressive picture, one that�s not content to let anyone leave the multiplex unless they�re a blubbering mess. Thankfully, there�s a little more soulful substance to the movie than cheap manipulations, and while �The Fault in Our Stars� is grabby, it�s also quite human, with genuine feelings accompanying troubling situations concerning death a ...read more...

5.0 out of 5 stars while also making me feel like I am cutting onions
Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2017

I have watched this movie a few times, and it somehow makes me feel more alive and optimistic every time I watch it, while also making me feel like I am cutting onions. Excellent acting and interpretation of the book. Highly recommended.

This movie is amazing. Keep the tissues handy, but be prepared to be touched by the story of two young people fighting their own battles. I’d give this movie 10 stars if that were an option!

Es una hermosa historia de amor. Recomendada

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 6, 2015

Okay? Okay. So let’s start off by talking about how cute that movie poster is? It’s adorable right? Of course it’s adorable what am I, Karen, talking about here. Anyways. I have been putting off reading the book and watching the movie for quite a while. Mostly that reason was because I was reading HoN books. So I couldn’t exactly get to this one even though I had this one for a little bit longer than the last two books of HoN but oh well.

Anyways #TFIOS that was such a great movie!!!! Before I watched the movie though I had to get myself all nice and settled in. By doing that I got myself a box of tissues and my blanket so I could cuddle in with it. The movie was really good. It made me laugh at all the right parts, it made me smile, and sadly I must say it….it even made me cry a lot of times. The Fault in Our Stars is the most awesome movie ever. Even if it’s about two cancer patients that met at a Support Group for other Cancer Kids around their ages. They met, they become friends, and slowly they start to fall in love. Well mostly Gus at first because he likes to admit it but Hazel never did admit it until they get to Amsterdam.

I guess the main reason is because Hazel just never really wanted to hurt Augustus, Gus, like other Cancer Kids do eventually. And when I say eventually I mean that as the most heartwarming kindness that I can because any story that has cancer in it someone will die. You just know it. I did when I read the back of the book but then again I also knew it because someone at my high school told me that back when I was in high school about four years ago now. But anyways Augustus and Hazel has, or have if you want to be cruel to your own heart, the most amazing love story that any young teenage person can have with cancer in their lives.

These two are just two wonderful people that shouldn’t have had cancer in their lives at all and should be able to live a happily ever after like most people their own ages. Including Isaac. He shouldn’t have had to have his eyes removed and be blind for the rest of his life. I cried my hardest at every single part whenever someone else cried because I felt like I was apart of their lives even if as Peter Van Houten would say that they are literary characters and that we shouldn’t matter with what happened to them. I say that he is full of bulls*** because with the characters in this book and the characters that we hear of from An Imperial Affliction that they all matter, and that what happened to the person that died, loved ones they also matter in what happens afterward for them.

I mean I care for Hazel, Isaac, and everyone in #TIFOS in both the books and the movies since anyone that has been hurt by Death taking one of their loved ones will know that they will live on forever in that person’s heart. Trust me I lost my great aunt and my grandfather, one when it was her time and the other from cancer, I just like to think that my heart has room for Gus and Hazel and everyone else in The Fault in Our Stars family because Cancer is just a thing that is made up of you that will eventually kill you and there is no way out of it since Pain is inevitable.

I hope that you also like this movie as much as I did and that you will walk the rest of the day and the rest of your life knowing that you bared witness to the most wonderful love story ever of Augustus Waters and Hazel Grace Lancaster. Who shall ever be in my heart. Okay? Okay.

This movie was pretty good. I'm usually into action/adventure/horror, but my wife wanted some romance and what my wife wants, my wife gets. So here's the 30 second rundown of "The Fault in Our Stars."

This movie starts off with us getting to know our protagonist, Hazel Grace, a smoking hot cancer patient who thinks she's not smoking hot because of a thin strip of plastic on her face, think John Hughes syndrome for the millenials. Anyway, Hazel Grace has not had it easy in life and basically spends all day moping around until her parents, who were really looking forward to her dying as a child, forcibly drive her to a support group.

After a few meetings, Hazel, referred to as Hottie McBreathingTube from this point forward, is introduced to a creepy guy who won't stop staring at her. Creepy guy, Augustus, or Gus for short, wins her over by basically growing on her long and slow, like a fungus. Gus also had cancer and had his leg amputated, Lt. Dan-style.

Hottie McBreathing Tube and Lt. Dan Jr. spend some time doing normal teenaged stuff, at which point they share books and decide to stalk the author of Hottie's favorite book down in Amsterdam. They arrange a trip by basically getting a two-fer out of the movie's "Make a wish" trope, but Hazel gets sick and is told she can't go. Then told she can. So the duo fly mostly unsupervised to Amsterdam where you're forced to watch an awful "New to this country" montage set to "Boom Clap" by that annoying band. After a romantic evening paid for by the author of the book, the two set out to meet the author, who turns out to be a REALLLY drunk William Dafoe. See, it turns out that the whole ordeal was set up by William's hot assistant, possibly lover, who looks like the hot red head playing the new Wendy on Wendy's commercials. He basically acts like an existential jerk and makes them both cry. Wendy runs outside to apologize and the group decides that they can lighten the mood by visiting the Anne Frank house. This is a really bad idea, because while hot, Hazel basically has 1/4 of a lung and there aren't any elevators. After climbing through the house Anne Frank built and nearly dying twice, Hazel and Dan Jr. express their love physically, though Hazel has to put the breathing tube back in, but he basks in her hottness for about 30 seconds. *Sidenote* If this movie taught me anything, it's that you can still have terrible debilitating cancer and both be hot and have amazing abs. *End Sidenote*

After that, Lt. Dan Jr. dies. Ya, you heard me. Straight. Up. Dies. You see, they were leading up to Hazel being the super sick one the whole time. Turns out our friend the lieutenant had been hiding the fact that he had super cancer and it basically spread everywhere, but not before Hazel and their blind friend could read him his own eulogy. At the lieutenant's funeral, William shows up again, less Green Goblin, more Finding Nemo. Hottie McHotHot chews him out, only to find out that her boyfriend wrote a really nice letter about her and had Green Goblin deliver it.

Oh and there was something about underage drinking and stars.

Hope you enjoy the movie!

5.0 out of 5 stars A very lovely film. Glad that I watched this.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on September 14, 2016

Definitely one of the lovliest, most moving films that I have seen. One of those films, where from the cover alone, you can't really determine too much in terms of guessing what the content may be like. Which I often find are the best. This very modestly delivers one of the most moving, thought provoking performances. I have bought this many times for friends. As someone who has lost someone who was extremely close to me in life, I empathised with this film whole heartedly. However the acting is so strong alone, that if you haven't personally been affected by this life altering subject, you feel as though you are connected with the characters and are experiencing the journey with them. I would recommend that everyone watches this, it's a film that certainly stays with you.

4.0 out of 5 stars People who bought this also bought tissues

SPOILER ALERT: (and a slightly pithy, crass one at that) it's about terminal disease so don't expect a happy ending.

However it's an excellent, important story and well made.

I got the Blu-ray/DVD/Digital edition. It was advertised as used but when it arrived it was still sealed, so it was new. The digital code 'expired' in 2017 but I tried it and it still worked. The movie is amazing as it displays hope and is an amazing love story for everyone to enjoy. The 4 bonus photos are a bonus and it love them so much. For all 3 formats of the film for £1.60, I would highly recommend it for everyone around the ages of 12 to 30.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 15, 2015

This DVD was beautifully made, I have read John Greens book and have to say this was a brilliant screenplay. Obviously as ever in a film sections of the book have to be left out but the great thing about this film is whilst bits are left out due to time restraints etc there is rarely a thing that is changed. The characters were just how I had imagined them prior to watching and I just loved it!!! If you love the book I really believe you will enjoy this film. If you haven't read the book then you're an idiot!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great film - not so great extras.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 23, 2015

A good film that you may have heard a lot about. Adapted from the book of the same name and with the writer on board as a close adviser to the film you can be sure that it sticks closely to the story.

A bit light on extras on the blu-ray - I wanted more depth to the interviews and motivations and this wasn't provided. It was obvious from some of the shorts on the disk that they had a lot of footage to choose from; maybe we'll get to see this in a later version.

The other added cards are - nice - but nothing special.

What do the cigarettes symbolize in The Fault in Our Stars?

Cigarettes. Gus's unlit cigarettes represent power and control over his life. He believes, "You put the killing thing right between your teeth, but you don't give it the power to do its killing." The cigarettes lend Gus the air of confidence and bravado that his character so craves.

What kind of cancer does Hazel Grace have?

1. Shailene Woodley's Hazel Grace Lancaster has thyroid cancer with metastasis forming in her lungs, which causes her to carry around an oxygen tank and wear a cannula, and occasionally she has trouble breathing.

Does Augustus Waters have cancer?

"The Fault in Our Stars" is the story of smart and surly Hazel Grace Lancaster, a 16-year-old cancer patient who falls in love with Augustus Waters, an osteosarcoma survivor she meets in a support group.

Will fault in our stars make me cry?

The Fault in Our Stars was the first book that ever made me cry. I was sitting on my bed reading it, feeling totally fine. Things weren't going well for Augustus but I knew he was the main love interest so he was safe!
