50/50 (2011)
Inspired by a true story, a comedy centered on a 27-year-old guy who learns of his cancer diagnosis, and his subsequent struggle to beat the disease.
Inspirational! You can do it, don’t die… live… live! Liiiiive!
A funny take on life, death and love… nothing can get you through the bad times like a good friend. “I told you so!”
I had mixed emotions that ran from sad to happy. This had it’s fine moments, that would make people think about their own lives.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is our poor old hero facing the ultimate adventure… death. The always cotton mouth, Seth Rogen plays his reliable wingman. And Anna Kendrick is the ray of sunshine. While Bryce Dallas Howard was the bitch. Rogen and JGL made an awesome pair of average joes/goofs. Behind the humor there was truth.
TRIVIA: Joseph Gordon-Levitt actually shaved his head during filming. Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen were improvising in character while the cameras kept rolling since the scene was not in the script.
This was definitely one of those 2011 surprises. Romantic in a way but focus was on the battle versus cancer. - a fight close to home. And this film showed the brighter side of… hope.
Entertaining and based on the experience of the writer. It doesn’t get any personal than that. Love’s a bitch, and so is Life.
