Why is [Dakota Fanning] living onscreen the way that so few female protagonists get to live? Because she's dying. *sigh*

Fanning gives a truly impressive and memorable performance in this ... which will give Parker another dark horse in the running.

Stunning tearjerker about teen cancer has mature themes.

I'm sorry to say, that despite Dakota Fanning's powerful dying performance, Now Is Good - is not a good movie. Unfortunately, it looks like a 90's daytime soap and pulls at the heart strings like Michael Bolton's mullet.

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.

The problem isn't so much that Now Is Good will reduce its teenage target audience to public sniveling, but that it does so by pushing the most obvious and most sentimental buttons repeatedly, relentlessly and somewhat extravagantly.

Hellbent on inspiring a rush of wind-beneath-my-wings, life-affirming feeling.

There's nothing like a terminal illness for firing up a sappy romantic drama.

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

[Spikes] the Nicholas Sparks-style teen Love Story plot with refreshing flashes of sex, drugs and Ellie Goulding songs.
October 07, 2012
This latest directorial outing by Ol Parker has a veneer of cancer but it's the wish-fulfilment teenage romance at its heart that is most likely to appeal to its target audience.
