Verified Purchase:Yes
Almost ahead of its time, feels like in retrospect will become a defining film to the culture of its time.

Hazel (Shailene Woodley) and Gus (Ansel Elgort) share a sarcastic sense of humor, a distaste for the conventional, and ultimately a love that sweeps them on an unforgettable journey. Although the two teens face unlikely challenges, their courage and dedication to each other prove that while life isn't perfect, love can still be extraordinary. Laura Dern (LITTLE FOCKERS) and Sam Trammell (TV's TRUE BLOOD) also star in this powerfully moving film based on John Green's New York Times best-selling novel.

Good YA adaptation

Shailene Woodley is terrific here again. I just love her, she's like a little sister you want to protect. She really has a screen presence, and continues to impress. Ansel Elgort isn't her league, but he does a solid job. This movie could have been so Lifetime movie of the week, but it transcends its potentially manipulative trappings for the most part. It's very predictable (a 3rd of the way through the movie, you can guess what the last word of the movie it will end on), but it keeps the characters grounded and feel mostly real. Really liked the Anne Frank House scene. The Willem Dafoe stuff went a little too far (showing up for the funeral and stuff). Shailene Woodley continues on the path to being a superstar, and more importantly, one of my favorite actresses.

From Producer Guillermo Del Toro and Director Jorge R. Gutierrez Comes a Breathtaking Animated Comedy with a Dazzling Visual Style Unlike Anything You've Seen Before. Torn Between the Expectations of His Family and the Desires of His Heart, a Young Man Named Manolo Sets Off on An Epic Quest, That Spans Three Spectacular Worlds, in Order to Reunite with His One True Love and Defend His Village. Not Your Ordinary Fairy Tale, the Book of Life Is a Wondrous Fantasy-Adventure Filled with Magic, Music and Fun!

Mostly unique animated movie

While The Book of Life doesn't have a great plot or characters, it's visual style and the universe it portrays is enough to shoot it to near the top of year's best animated films. It has a great sense of pacing, looks amazing, has a wonderfully original storyline (even if as I said the plotting isn't anything spectacular), and a decent to great sense of humor.

Better directed that the original, as well as the writing and the casting.
