50/50

  A comedy about cancer? You better believe it, but don't be put off by the subject matter. This is a really good film, sensitively handled and often very funny and bittersweet in equal measures. That's thanks to a wry, sharp script that's a celebration of life, like The Bucket List. It's also bolstered by solid performances all around but especially by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who successfully conveys his character's humour, anger and fear at being given a 50/50 chance of living through a rare form of cancer. The ultimate success of a film is whether you really care about the characters in it, because audience identification is so important. This film succeeds admirably in that regard. Highly recommended.

  Absolutely brilliant Movie, well worth going to see. I thought I would be put off by Seth Rogan, but actually wasnt! This film has a different storyline, and a range of emotions. Go see this movie!!!!
