So Cancer, nothing really funny about it is it, sorry to be all depressing and everything guys but any movie that really deals with it is way to Hollywood and unreletable or takes it to lightly. 50/50 however does a great job of giving an honest portrayal of what happens when a young twenty-something gets it and how it effects the ones around him.
I want into this movie thinking it was a comedy and although there are funny moments in it mainly provided my Seth Rogen ( a friend of his was the inspiration for the story) it is best seen as a straight up drama with Joseph Gordon-Levitt really giving a realistic portrayal of how someone would feel if this had happened to them.
Particular praise should be given to the directer ( i'm sorry I don't know his name I don't know everything about movies dudes) while he could have gone and made the movie massive with loads of fancy camera tricks he decides for the most part to keep everything realistic a slow paced to really make you feel for the characters.
Check it out 5/5
