50/50 Review

Last night I had the chance to watch the 2011 film 50/50 Starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogan. The film is about Adam, a 27-year-old guy who learns of his cancer diagnosis. The film is a comedy drama Based on the true story of writer Will Reiser, who was diagnosed with cancer and later recovered.

The music:
The music in the movie grabbed me completely. The sound was very indie and captured the emotion of the movie.

Actors:

Joseph Gordon-Levitt was astounding in this film. Adam is very health and safety conscious, he shows so in little characteristics such as biting his nails and not owning a drivers license. He's timid and let's his rude girlfriend walk all over him. His girlfriend is played by Bryce Dallas Howard who played Hilly in The Help.

Adam's therapist Katherine is played by Anna Kendrick, who we know from the Twilight saga as Jessica, Bella's self centered friend.

And lastly Adams best friend Kyle is played by the hilarious Seth Rogen.

The film overall was fantastic, easily one of my favorites.

IMDB rating: 7.8/10
My rating: 9/10
