Our Gut Reaction (Justin and Christina): The Fault In Our Stars

So it's late, I'm sleepy and it's been a while since the last post. Well fret no more, because we just got out of The Fault In Our Stars and have our gut reactions. So how did this tale of love in the midst of cancer move us to tears? Well....

Justin: A great performance by Shailene Woodley and Willem Dafoe can't make up for the sanitation of this potentially moving film into typical teen romance drama.

Christina: What was hopefully a foray into the melancholic, bittersweet side of life turned into a less-than-so, Twilight-y experience. Some of the most emotionally compelling moments were downplayed or omitted from an otherwise beautiful performance from Shailene Woodley.

So yeah...please don't hate us. We will give more complete thoughts soon.
