I would say some 11 year olds would be fine with this film but you want to make sure that your child is mature enough to understand the story.
However I would say that the high moments were definitely worth the painful moments. This movie has heavy topics and may leave your child crying their heart out. I read and watched the film when I was 12 but I'm considered very mature for my age. If you are wondering wether to let your kid watch or read the fault in our stars it really depends on the maturity of your child. She wants to limit the amount of casualties she is responsible for so she doesn't go out except to her cancer support group where she meets Augustus Waters who changes her perspective on the world.Īugustus also has cancer although he assures Hazel that he is "on a roller coaster that only goes up my friend" It is a heartwarming teen love story that will impact you forever. One of the main characters,Hazel has cancer and is depressed,She doesn't see the point of living when she knows she is going to die. The movie is very sad so prepare for tears! But it also has beautiful messages about life and love. Not in a shocking or gruesome way, but in a way that showed so much beauty and strength.I love the fault in our stars with all my heart.Īlthough the movie is amazing the book is even better so I would definitely say to read the book first. And I have to say, the part of the movie that brought tears to my eyes was when they’re by the pool and (no spoilers) it showed their scars. Because we don’t let the impossible stop us. I think it perfectly showed that sick people aren’t these objects to pity, but pillars of strength. And without a doubt that gives us an incredible perspective on life that some people will never have. But there is a beauty in our struggle because we have to work 10 times harder to do the things “healthy people “ take for granted. Sick people get angry, laugh loudly, cry, scream, say the wrong thing, do silly things and most are far from achieving sainthood. (Insert wiped tear and hand over heart here.) I loved that they showed people who are sick aren’t these saints who do nothing wrong, who always have a positive attitude no matter what, and who are always an inspiration to us all. The movie also showed that hospitals aren’t just this “sad place” and that even though they are filled with hard situations, you can still find laughter, fun, love and beauty behind those sterile walls. We constantly have to make life or death decisions when our peers are stressing over finals and dates. And honestly, sometimes it’s hard to relate to people your age because the serious matters in your life are so serious.
