Alright i just got done watching another movie......Again this isn't a review. 50/50 stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt as a 27 year old man. He is very healthy and follows all the rules and is a general push over. This is until he notices his back hurts and goes in for an appointment. He soon finds out that he has cancer. A large tumor is growing down his spine. All the medical books say the chance of survival is 50%. The whole movie is him going through the stages of cancer and trying to maintain his normal life. His best friend is played by Seth Rogen and he is kind of his right hand man. He is always trying to get him laid and kind of make him forget he has cancer. Levitt goes through the normal "I'm gunna die soon stuff" like trying to connect with his mother, Being a better friend, and spend time with his girlfriend.
I won't spoil anything just in case, but the one flaw i found is that i never really gave a shit. You never know if he is going to live or die, but i honestly didn't care. I found it hard to connect with any of the characters at all in fact. I mean i wouldn't pay money to see this if i hadn't already, but i guess it was Ok.....out of 5.
I might catch this movie on the TV. Thanks!
