Could someone help me understand how to sync for the reaction? I feel so lost😭

Is this the theatrical or the extended version? I only own the extended. Haven't seen the theatrical since my first time watching this one.

Donna Castellano

Jesus its been years since I watched this whole movie, and as someone who read the book and watched the movie in theaters in high school I have always had an appreciation for this story and the messages it tells....but as an adult who has gone through loss since then and quite honestly still have not processed that, this hit so hard. I was sobbing for 2 hours straight. Watching this at this point in my life I have a whole new appreciation of how great this story was told and how it was made in a way that everyone can get something out of it. I appreciate you guys for this one, the reaction and discussion was honestly some things I needed to hear right now

Dominique

if you guys are interested in another great Shailene Woodley movie that also has Miles Teller, I recommend The Spectacular now. It was another little indie that Miles did around the same time as Whiplash where both premiered at Sundance.

Jerrica

I literally haven’t seen this movie since it came out in theaters right after I read the book. watching it along you guys had it hit me just as hard as the first time. So much love to you guys for sharing your stories and your emotions with all of us ❤️

Jerrica

Thank you so much for your honest and open reaction to this movie that contains so much from so many perspectives. I do not know what it's like to have a very ill child, but I do know what it's like to lose someone. I was widowed 10yrs ago with kids who ranged from 1 - 13 yrs old. That was hard but to see your child(ren) in pain from loss and grief I think was harder. It was so hard to see Hazel in her grief but also so moving how she put her 'story' aside at the funeral in order to provide whatever comfort she could to Gus's parents. That was a particularly moving moment for me in a movie full of beautiful moments.

Alicia

Really hope you will do 5 feet apart.

Raquel Perodin

I believe you mean John's brother, Hank Green? :)

Jenna

To all of you, and especially Answer, I feel your loss. I lost my mother to brain cancer when I was nine. While I know many people watching this movie cry because of the wonderful tale being told, I too cry instead during the conversation between Hazel and her mother. I'm still my mother's daughter, and I will always have a mother. I'm sad she no longer gets to be a mother with us. This is a great movie. John Green has many great novels, but this is the one he is definitely most known for. I had a great time watching this with you guys and hearing your thoughts and stories. Much love.

Jenna

Wow. Thank you for showing us your hearts in the recap on full display. You are all true gems. I know this movie isn't marketed toward a non-teen demographic initially, but the message is so important and really brings you back to reality when you're caught up in the nuance of everyday life. I'm glad you were all able to experience it fully - without phones and everyday distractions that most people would have with a first-time watch not in the theatre. I remember distinctly reading this book in middle school and feeling all of the deep emotions reading it as a teen in my bedroom. I've never cried like that during a book before. And after seeing the movie, I cried in the car with my friend for a long time before we were able to compose ourselves to drive. What an experience. Thank you all.

Mackenzie OReally

Daww, I love u guys, I love that you show us your emotions and are real. The Answer, I really feel for you, sending you my love 💓

Sophie So

She's honestly perfect, I love her ❤️

Sophie So

Please watch Me Before You. Its so good. Funny and sad both. And there is Emilia Clarke too 😁

Agle Tõnts

I cried during the movie and then cried again during your reaction at the end. I love the true and honest reactions you gentlemen give - every. single. time. Thanks so much.

Chantelle Nelson

You guys should watch ‘lovely bones’!!!!!!

Alexis

Considering the topic of this movie and how much you were moved by it, I also highly recommend The Whale, with Brandon Frasier in the lead (first time coming back in years due to the way Hollywood blacklisted him after he came out about being sexually assaulted by a producer in Hollywood) It's an incredibly powerful movie, with insanely good performances by everyone involved

Emily

this movie is brutal but somehow the book made me sob even more. this story is so beautiful!

Princess Mia

Yes to the Five Feet Apart suggestion!

Alina Lekavičiūtė

My biggest condolences to your family and I'm so sorry that you and everyone around you has lost so many people way too young and I'm sorry for your cousin, father and uncle that they didn't get more time but it sounds like they had good people around them and that's really important. I'm happy to hear your family was there for your aunt and uncle. A lot of people panic when things like that happen cause they don't know what to do or not to do so they become distant and from what I've gathered there is not anything you can really "do" except for maybe helping with chores and stuff but the only other thing to do is really just to be present for the people that are hurt. So i bet they are really happy to have had your support!

Ida L

Damn... So sorry Reece! Our thoughts are with you 🙏

Badd Medicine

I regret not watching this movie sooner, but I am glad I got to share this experience with you guys, of watching it for the first time along with you. Poor Oak, my own eyes were sprinklers as well, and they still are. I had been avoiding this movie like the plague, because it hit too close to home. When I was about 11 years old, my cousin who was about 13 at the time got diagnosed with Leukemia. He battled a year, went into remission, but it came back. He died at 15 years old. It was a huge hit for my family, and my aunt and uncle cut off a lot of disrespectful family members, except for my parents, me and my siblings, who always remained supportive of them. I can't think of a stronger couple than my aunt and uncle. To lose their only son like that... they were so strong together. Then in 2021, a month after I moved across the country, my father got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. They gave him 5 weeks, but he was a real warrior and turned them into 5 months. He was 63 years old. My uncle passed away last year at the end of oktober, very suddenly due to thrombosis in his heart. He was also 63, like my dad. I agree with Hazel Grace. This pain is definitely a 10. Much love from the Netherlands. 💖

GalwithPencils

have to recommend "Five Feet Apart" to you guys after watching this masterpiece. cried my eyes out, and I still have my whole day in front of me

Sending some love to you and your loved ones <3 Appreciate you sharing it <3

This was such a beatuiful reaction from you guys. I must say, I never really had much experience with cancer in my close circle of family and friends. My grandma died from lung cancer when I was a teenager, but at that age it was more a matter-of-fact situation, and I was not really that close to her. When I watched this movie in the past I laughed more than cried from it. (I’ve also read the book once before I saw the movie and I think the book impacted me more, but I don’t really remember much that far back). This is the first time I felt the whole weight of the movie hit me. And I think that is solely because I was watching it with you guys, and I felt like you guys allowed for me to feel what you felt, as well as feel my own emotions all at the same time. And it was so powerful. I basically cried the whole movie along with you guys. I just want to say a huge thank you for all of your movie reactions. Because I’m someone who struggle somewhat to access my emotions in real life. And it’s through books/movies and reaction channels that allow me to feel more strongly. And emotions can be so hurtful, but so beautiful to experience, and I am awed when allowed to access situations like this where I can feel so deeply. It feels cleansing in a way. I like how Quinn says this movie will stay with you hours/month after watching it. And that’s how I feel about it now after seeing it with you guys. I feel like I get a new wakeup call of how horribly beautiful life can be. It can be good, bad and everything inbetween. But what this movie teaches me is to allow those small glimmers of hope and laughter to take up a little more space in my life when it feels dark. So thank you for allowing me to feel this way, and to experience this movie with you guys. You guys mean so much to so many people, and although I’m sure you don’t need that love, just like Augustus didn’t need the whole world to love him. You guys definitely have a reach out into the world and into our lives. And for that I thank you so much. Love from Norway <3

JiaHailstorm

My first time watching this film. Absolutely beautiful. Reminds me of the movie Five Feet Apart albeit FIOS is more emotional/poignant for me.

NS

Thank you for sharing your stories Oak and Answer, and I am so sorry for your losses.

Chainster

Praying for you! You got this!

Elisbeth Vélez

Holy Fuck Oak, really got deep and had me relate for my future kid

Steven Warner

Same omg

Elisbeth Vélez

sending you so much love and strength, and healing. you’re incredibly brave-remember to be gentle with and kind to yourself.

Kaley

Holy fuck Answer, love you man, i have similar experiences and seeing this vulnerability hits real good man

Steven Warner

Man, Oak especially was killing me with his emotions all over his face. I love this movie but it is such a difficult watch. I'm happy you guys enjoyed it, such a beautiful story. You 3 are so amazing to watch, always real and not afraid to talk or show how you feel. I have lost too many people to cancer, the worst one being my dad (we lost my dad and father in law within a span of 3 months). He was able to make it to my wedding to walk me down the aisle which is all he cared about, I made sure to really watch every moment of him there. He passed away on my birthday to make the story worse, and it's been 8 years and it still hurts so much. Any show or movie that touches on the subject just hits hard but I really do love this movie and like I said I'm glad you 3 really loved it, I'm happy to have watched it again with you guys. Much love to you and hope you're all doing well after this 💜🫂

Amanda P

I've seen this movie a couple times since it came out and it still makes me bawl, and watching ya'lls reactions just added to my emotions. I appreciate The Answer opening up about his mother with us and The Oak talking about his family and best friend as well, I'm truly sorry for your losses, and ya'll had me crying even more. i want to thank all of you for being so open and honest with us, and I'm glad ya'll appreciated the movie.

Bri

Ive never seen this movie, but when i find myself grinning at the giddy moments i love that when i check my phone yall are sharing them with me :)

Steven Warner

I went into this thinking ive seen this before so just viewing to see the reaction.... Then im like I haven't seen any of his... wow. Great movie.

James Ventola

sending so much love to you and your family

westtt123

i think you are incredibly brave and fathomlessly strong. you are a survivor and represent what is good and light in the world.

westtt123

thank you for sharing your story abigail. what you said is so true...in my experience, the pain isn't something you grow out of, it's something you learn to grow with and walk with it by your side. The pain is a reminder of how intensely you are able to feel, and if you were capable of feeling such pain, you are also capable of feeling such love. love you

westtt123

It’s impossible to not get emotional watching this movie. While I’ve lost love ones to cancer in the past before watching this movie for the first time then, this was the first time I’ve rewatched it since my Father passed from cancer 5 years ago. I’m an only child and a Daddy’s girl and this movie hit way differently watching it this time around. I love you all for the raw emotions and felt each of your pain individually. I’m thankful that we can experience life and emotion together through your channel. It’s almost therapeutic for me. Appreciate you all, thank you!

Stacy Lymber

sending you love and strength<3

I avoided watching this movie no matter how many times it got recommended, because it was hitting too close to home. I knew it would make me cry, and it's not because it'll make me cry that I avoid it, I've cried thousand of times in movies/shows, but it's because it'll remind me of painful times. I was diagnosed with cancer in 2020 (in the midst of the pandemic no less) and I was an emotional wreck. I had a mental breakdown at work, and even after weeks of coming to terms with it, it was still wrecking me emotionally. If I had watched this movie during it, either it would have completely destroyed me or it might have helped me come to terms with it sooner, I don't really know. Fortunately though, the cancer was caught on early and with surgery I'm considered "cure" although I still have to go through yearly checkups just to make sure. It's been 3 years now and I feel amazing, but I'll be lying to myself if I say that I'm not fearful of the cancer coming back. It's always in the back of my mind, every time I get sick or I feel off, I always fear that it might be my cancer coming back, or another form of cancer somewhere. That fear is always going to be there. This movie was very heartfelt. I'm already a grown adult when I was diagnosed, I've lived my life at least for the most part, so I have that to be thankful for. I can't imagine going through cancer in such a young age, and I honestly can't say if I'd be as brave as the characters in the movie.

Bunnie

To quote Wanda's "But what is grief, but love persevering?", I too have lost so many loved ones to cancer and other terminal diseases and my dear mom has had a few scares throughout the years as well but the one that hurt most was my Grandaddy's... no amount of time will ever be enough had I gotten more with him. The movie touches so well about the beauty, strength and love of people in spite of everything life throws at us. The beauty of loving and being loved. Sending out light and love to each and one of you here 🤍

Jorreca

hey reece, i'm rooting for ya! we have tons more of movies to watch okay? you got this! <3

Jorreca

Oak and Answer im so sorry to hear about your losses 💜 I lost my brother and his best friend suddenly in a car accident when I was 13 (they were 17 and 18) and my best friend at the time lost her mom to cancer a year later and I also lost my grandfather to lung cancer around the same time. It was super rough. I dont know what its like to lose a mother but I do know that trauma from loss. My love and thoughts go to you guys and the challenges you went through. I wasnt able to say much either at the funeral...luckily my brother and his friend had a great community and the whole town showed up to their wakes/funeral. Im happy you got good memories with your mom before her passing Answer. Love you guys 💜💜💜

Alyssa Dyson

Watching this for the first time with you guys and cried through the whole damn thing. Now I'm crying again listening to Answer at the end. This was beautiful. Thanks for watching with us, guys.

JessTellsTales

I've been sick for most of my life. No doctor can fix me, and I'm not dying, but there is always this... ache, almost like what you see in the movie. I've had surgery and it has gotten better and I can live now, but i missed all of highschool. I was on the bathroom floor at prom, throwing up from pain on multiple occasions. I'm not commenting on this to feel sorry for myself or for anyone to feel sorry for me. What I am saying is that working through the pain is what makes these things so complicated. We can't fix a lot in this life, but we can live, and I think this movie beautifully portrays how important that is. I learned from being sick not to let your fears define you. Grief is awful and full of so many emotions, but they showed the type of grief that I don't see often in movies. Griefing your death. I'm going to be honest: I thought I was dying, and I wasn't, but that is how it felt, and I learned through that that nothing is meaningless; God has a plan and whatever you believe. Hope is the only thing that can get you something through that, and though I don't have cancer, I know the pain and the feelings. I'm not saying that I will ever fully understand what it is like to have terminal cancer. I don't think you can unless it happens. I hope with all my heart that someone doesn't have to go through it alone. Being in pain terminally is awful, but doing it alone makes it even worse. That was a great reaction, and I hope we can recover after this movie.

Abigail.M

Thank you for taking the time to watch this with us, and putting your all into reviewing such a heavy topic. I was crying with you all, right up until the end of your video. I appreciate hearing what you have to say and you sharing your experiences with us. My heart goes out to you all 💜

Maddie Loftus

also Answer thank you for sharing your own personal story about your family. I too recently lost my first grandparent from cancer, and the emotional connection of the eulogy at the funeral hit harder this time around.

terriblegenius

No matter how much I watch this movie it still affects me the same way it did the first time. I know this was a tough one to get through for you guys, but I loved that y'all watch it, nonetheless. Agustus Waters had many memorable quotes, but "Pain demands to be felt" is the one that sticks out the most to me. The book is equally has emotional and heart wrenching, but a good read as most John Green books are. Thank you guys for the reaction and keep up the good work!

terriblegenius

So happy you guys loved the movie, I bawled even though i've already watched it a few times. Its pretty much word for word from novel, a truly beautiful book that shaped me growing up. Thank you for your reaction and thoughts.

Kate

Damn right 5 across the board. The book was perfection they nailed this movie 🍿 💕

Love10 ❤️

I didn't know I was going to be ugly crying today. Welp, here we go!

Kat Bland

One of my fav reactions!

Do Not Talk About Fight Club

Another tearjerker!

Kaley

as someone whos brain cancer came back this summer…this movie 🙂‍↔️

reece kennedy

I promised myself to never watch this movie again but I made an exception for you guys. I’m a mess oh my 😭😭😭

L AH

Augustus on a plane for the first time, and having to fly over the ocean to another country was the same experience I had for my first flight and I can tell you his reaction was my reaction as well almost to a T 😆. First time ever flying, and I was terrified of planes at the time, was to Italy on a 16+ hour flight. I can say now though I absolutely love flying lol. The lift off still makes me super anxious though 😆 I’ve seen this movie before and I didn’t realize it would make me tear up and get even more emotional than it did the first time. My dad died at an early age (9), so my mom has been my rock and confidant and my best friend ever since. She is an amazing woman (raised 3 of us on her own after my dad passed and until my step dad came into the picture). Last year we found out she has stage 4 cancer. Terminal, and cannot be cured (whole body). At the time they gave her only 6-12 months to live even with treatment. Happy to say that she is 1 year and going on 4 months and still here with stability doing immunotherapy. We’re hoping to certainly have even more time with her. This movie still hits so close to home though and I honestly didn’t realize how hard it would hit me until today. So I can totally relate Answer, and I’m so sorry 😞. I appreciate ya’ll reacting to this, I know it’s hard and we’ve all had someone or know someone who’s had this shitty disease and it hurts and sucks in the worst way. Per the words of Ryan Reynolds, Fuck Cancer. Thank yall for reacting to this and all of your reviews and insight on this and doing this for the fans! Y’all are amazing ✊🏻.

Elizabeth Green

Welp, this movie has officially destroyed me for a second time.

Ron Banks

Yesss. That was one of the first ones to get me. I think Armageddon was the first to really put me in my feels.

Alyssa Dyson

I read the book and a few others of his. He's a great writer.

Alyssa Dyson

I just wanna say, it makes me so happy seeing how you all let each other express their thoughts and their emotions so openly-when any of y’all get emotional, you give them time and you guys never look uncomfortable or embarrassed-you just sit with each other in whatever emotions come up. I truly appreciate that.

Kaley

I never cried during a movie but that movie!! Got me along with this one

jenny meresse

Boy, I knew this would be rough on you guys. But I am so grateful to rewatch here. Pain demands to be felt, and it is an honor to feel it with all of you.

Lauren

do i really want to cry today??? hm

Steph

yes girl. I was 13 when this movie came out and that movie broke me.

Alyssa Dyson

"the reason i called it a 9 is because I was saving my 10...and this was it." if you have been there you felt this line 100%.

Alyssa Dyson

May I suggest you all watch She's The Man early in May, instead of late May? I mean sure... the quicker we get your reaction the happier I may be... but I'm doing this for your own good. Surely after this movie you guys could do with something light hearted and funny. I'm only here for what's best for you guys. ❤️❤️ 😆🤭 I'm about to start the reaction now! Ordered some pizza for dinner and had to make sure the tissues were on hand. Haven't seen this in years, not sure if I'm ready for another tear-fest. 😭 lol

Sarah

When you realize in retrospect, Van Houten insulting Gus saying “Has the cancer spread to your brain?” is even more heartbreaking knowing that at that moment, Gus’s cancer had come back, metastasized and he was dying. 😭

Kaley

Depends on my mood (and my hormones LOL) but this movie can make me bawl like a baby 💜 excited to see your guys reactions. "pain demands to be felt." always hits home for me.

Alyssa Dyson

I'm just about to watch it along with your reaction. Giving it a chance haha

Liam

Definitely check this out even if it wasn't with us. 🤙

Badd Medicine

Y’all have got to watch A Walk To Remember, since y’all liked Mandy Moore

jenny meresse

❤️❤️❤️

Feli Moon

Where my tissues it’s time

Love10 ❤️

This is a John Green book. His YouTube channel CrashCourse helped me through school. His brother who also is on the channel Jeff Green had lymphoma.. he is in remission

jenny meresse

I had heard of this before and always assumed it was a romantic chick flick I wouldn't enjoy. But I guess I could check it out with you guys. Might feel less weird. Never thought it would be a movie three dudes would sit and watch together.

Liam

Oh yes it was

Badd Medicine

Ahhh, i cant , all the emotions, 😭 here we go
