Description

Hope Gracin is known as "the girl dying of cancer" and has embraced this identity as well as anyone dying of cancer possibly could. After all, it had brought her popularity at school, a boyfriend from Australia, straight A’s from sympathetic teachers, and endless affection. However, when Hope finds out that she is in remission, her whole world is turned upside down. She loses the things that she thought were important seemingly overnight and lashes out at those who actually love her. In time, she must learn to shed the superficiality that cancer had brought her and embrace the beauty of living without an expiration date.

    This movie was an utter disgrace. The acting was atrocious and the overall plot and characters were terrible. Throughout the whole film the main character was a complete brat. She repeatedly used her cancer for her own selfish gain. The movie completely made light of children dying from a severe illness. This movie struck a personal cord due to the fact that my sister has lived her whole life in a state of chronic illness and has on multiple occasions been on the brink of death. I can tell you first hand that death is not a joke!

    An innovative twist on the coming of age movie. Hope forms her high school identity around terminal cancer. Then one day her entire identity shifts when tests show she's in remission and no longer terminal. This film takes a candid look at the reactions of Hope's peers when they discover she is no longer Cancer Girl. And Hope learns how to have a future. An enjoyable film with a well written story. Cast includes both seasoned actors and new faces. Includes a funny performance by Tim Kazurinski as Mr. Baxter.

  • An adorable film.

    Mia Rose Frampton is perfect. Loved the transition about 15 minutes into the film, where her world turns right side up. Enjoyed the entire cast, most of which were new to me. A believable, interesting story, well told.

    Mia Rose breakout performance as Hope. Reminded me of those great high school movies like Sixteen Candles. It hit all the right emotions and Mia flawlessly gave us the comedy relief.

  • Bravo!!!!

    What could be a "here we go again" story about a young woman facing a tragic life sentence, turns out to be a well written, well acted uplifting story true to teen life. Well done, Mia Frampton and crew. The Cimorellis bring their unique talents to the screen. Well-written, well-acted, well-produced!

  • Wow... tbh this is actually pretty good.

    This movie kinda reminded me of my favorite 80’s and 90’s movies. I was surprised that I liked this so much actually. I mean, it’s definitely meant for a younger audience, but it really resonated with me. I have been in and out of chemo since I was younger, and I have lost people to cancer as well, and it just felt, I don’t know, like relatable I guess. But not too sappy either. And still gave me things to laugh at. I loved Hope and Seth’s relationship too.

  • Funny and incredibly heartfelt!
