Title: Not a movie about cancer...
Product review: ...ok yes it is, but not to a degree that overpowers the entire experience. It certainly was not depressing by any means.I watched this movie on DVD with my wife. We both enjoyed this film despite having very different expectations going into the movie - mine high as I am a Joseph Gordon-Levitt fan and can tolerate Seth Rogen, my wife's low as she really did not want to watch a movie about cancer that will make her sad. Interesting, I won her over by mentioning Seth Rogen was in this film. We were both surprised with how well they handled the balance of cancer and comedy. Done wrong, this movie could have been a tragic failure. But, we felt they maintained an honest portrayal of the human aspect of cancer while still providing just enough sub plots, comedy, and character development to keep the viewers engaged without feeling overproduced.
