Though it ultimately can’t dodge that fate, it’s fascinating to watch the filmmaker give it a try-with a healthy boost from his lead. Together, they show just enough caution to make “The Fault in Our Stars” stand out for its valiant attempts at turning into the formula expected of it.

Starring Shailene Woodley as a dying teen who finds love with a fellow cancer patient played by her “Divergent” co-star Ansel Elgort, the movie hits all the obvious beats that are primed to make you cry, from the shouting matches that devolve into tears to the tender moments pitched between tragedy and uplift.
