I loved this movie. It was excellent. I read the "critics' reviews" beforehand. Now I read them again. I have decided that most movie critics (usually negative reviews) are just a bunch of overintellectualized, bigoted, screwed up and nasty individuals who are probably jealous because they have zero talent. They didn't especially like this movie. TOUGH.

I love both Julianne Moore's and Ellen Page's performances in this film...beautiful! The fact that this film is based on a true story makes it 10 times better. It pained my heart to watch, but I loved it!

I have family affected by stage 4 cancer and it really hits home when you realize you've been through hard times, and you can see a lot of your own family's struggle.
