50/50 Review (2011)

50/50 Review (2011)

 

  Inspired by a true story, 50/50 is the story of a young man, Adam, (played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who finds out that he has a very rare kind of spinal cancer and his chances of living are 50/50.
  I was shocked at how much I loved this movie. How the script manages to keep a smooth tone while combining humor and drama with such ballance and respect is extremely impressive. The cast, which includes: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogan, Bryce Dallas Howard, Anjelica Huston, and Anna Kendrick all give STUNNING performances. Joseph Gordon-Levitt has really put the standard high with this Oscar deserving accomplishment.
  50/50 is realstic, funny, sweet, charming, genuine, original, fresh, and uplifting.  Director, Jonathan Levine, has done something most filmmakers would never dare to do and he has done it well in this satisfying dramedy. 
It's a story about survival, friendship, loyalty, and life that will leave you crying tears of sadness and tears of laughter. Being by far the best movie of 2011, I will reward 50/50 with 5 out of 5 stars! (A Must See)
