Is Now Is Good a great film? Almost certainly not. But its effectiveness is frightening. Bring whole sheaves of tissues.

Presses the obvious buttons so hard that you feel totally manipulated.

As the two-dimensional Perfect Boyfriend, Irvine chases any sense of reality from the screen.

1/5

To be avoided at all costs, Now Is Good is in fact far from good, but instead a tiresome, often appalling drama with little or no honesty or tact.

4/5

Stunning tearjerker about teen cancer has mature themes.

D+

Surprisingly harsh when it comes to the dented appeal of its lead character, the movie is a predictable drag, attempting to cozy up to its young adult literary origins in a decidedly tuneless fashion.

i loved the layout of the movie. It was emotionally sad as it got to the end, nobody knows when your life can end.

I loved this film, until it got to the end! I felt like I needed to see a little bit more of what happened after her passing? It felt like the ending was rushed and not really thought about. But otherwise the film was full of all the emotional rollercoaster scenes you needed for this type of genre! Would definitely recommend

Fanning was fantastic, so believable. It's a very real take on the whole terminal cancer subject.
