[quote=aya;#417250;1402170468]You know, I just realized what was wrong with the movie.
I realized that [b]I've been comparing the movie with the scenes I've pictured in my head and have come to the conclusion that I got disappointed because the scenes in my head were so much better. It was more dramatic and more beautiful than the movie.

When Augustus confessed to Hazel that he was dying, it made my heart ached so bad but the movie failed to capture that.
In the [i]novel[/i] I felt very sad for Augustus (consecutive sick days, malfunctioning g-tube, pissing on his bed scene, AWESOME GUY turning into someone you can't recognize anymore)
It's like the movie was trying to make the viewers remember him as Gus the cool and charismatic guy, not Gus who bit it from cancer.
The movie thought it could compensate by putting flashbacks of Augustus near the ending. Frankly, it did make me teary eyed BUT it wasn't enough. HAHAHAHA. Nice try.
I'll recommend other people to read the book and skip the movie.
But I'd totally understand if they want to see it on film too. It [i]is[/i] a great book.[/quote]
[b]exactly how i felt[/b]
can't say more. You totally emphasized every single thing i would like to say. Hahahaha. Nice review
At least our long wait for the movie is now over.
and we ended up being disappointed hahahaha
