Day 25: 50/50

Director- Jonathan Levine

Written By- Will Reiser

Starring- Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogen, Anna Kendrick, Bryce Dallas Howard

Critics Review ""50/50" is a low key, authentic, warm-hearted film; the cast is one of the best of the year." Richard Roeper "Richard Roeper.com"

Out of a possible of 5 stars- 4 1/2 stars

My Review-

In this movie loosely based on the true story of writer Will Reiser, how he found out he had cancer, and what he, his family and his best friend went through. Joesph Gordon-Levitt plays Adam Lerner who discovers that he has cancer, and how he deals it with his family and best friend played by Seth Rogen. This one of those films that will hit close to the heart, it's funny and sad at the same time, and you are genuinely into the characters. Levitt and Rogen has amazing chemistry as best friends and it work really well since Rogen went through that with his friend Reiser who is also the writer of the film. This movie was well written and acted, and Levitt deserves the Golden Globe Nomination that he received. Another actress that did really well was Anna Kendrick who did an amazing job, even possibly better than "Up in The Air" where she was nominated for an Oscar. This is one movie I would like to own on Blu Ray very soon.
