I was surprised, cause I found this movie, randomly, on Shailene Woodley's IMDB and decided to watch it. Didn't expect too much, but... Think I got caught by this movie.

this is a mediocre acted dramedy with some weird reactions from the actors, lot didn't make any sense.

This is way better than 'A Fault In Our Stars'
this looks and feels real.
but the former tries to be real but somehow fails.

wow, great coming off age movie in a long time. natural acting by leads really helped.

I must be getting old as I am starting to really enjoy these kinds of coming-of-age films. This was one of the best that I've seen - you can see that Woodley and Teller are going to be stars.  

I'm a sucker for a good coming-of-age movie. I didn't have high exceptions for this one since I only just heard about it and it exceeded my expectations. I thought the writing was excellent. Miles Teller and Shailene Woodley were both fantastic. I am watching this after they both have become bigger actors but I wish I would have seen this back in 2013 when they were still new. Brie Larson is also amazing as always. I love the message about not only living for today.

Fun Fact: Shailene Woodley tells Miles Teller early in the film that she believes people are "more than one thing" - the year later she proved she was when she was revealed to be Divergent! Oh, and Teller co-starred with her in that film too.

Both are terrific in this film. Teller is one of the finest young actors working in Hollywood today. Better than usual teen romance.

Whatever message the movie was trying to pass along, it passed it in a very boring way. Wouldn't watch it again even if someone paid me to.

I think every person who has a heart should watched this movie.

This movie is as entertaining as watching snow fall.

A few steps above watching paint dry.

Great movie, ignore the "This movie is terrible and/or boring" comments, not every movie is for everybody and not everyone understands every type of movie. This starts off feeling like a very light hearted movie and ends up being a really good story about a guy who's going through abandonment issues from his father, who I think pretty much every guy who's dad left can relate to, and about a girl who fell for a guy for who he is and not who he's trying so hard to pretend he is.

[spoiler]Added props need to be given to the small details in this movie, like the mom pretending she kicked the dad out when the dad just left because he's a piece of shit, and the mom caring so much about her son that she was willing to take that "heat" from her son rather than him know the truth about his dad in that he just doesn't care.[/spoiler]

Anyone who said the acting in this movie isn't that good totally didn't get what was going on, and their opinion is worth mud.
