To occupy some time I took in the movie 50/50, which is playing on Showtime. It was shot back in 2011 and stars Joseph Gordon Levitt and Seth Rogan. I candidly admit Joseph Gordon Levitt was the entire reason why I watched this movie. He has an appealing figure and is my type, if only he were gay, plus he is a good actor.
Joseph’s character Adam was a 23 year old guy who suddenly developed cancer in his lower back. He goes through Chemotherapy but his cancer doesn’t respond and so he has to have surgery. For a moment in time I was so engrossed in this I actually thought I had cancer. I see how frightening it is to hear the word and especially when he is so young and essentially alone. His mom and friend try to help as best as they can, but it causes some obvious tensions and it doesn’t help that his dad has Alzheimer's.
Overall this is a great movie and it’s one of those movies that will help put life into perspective for you. You can’t help but feel sympathy and empathy for Joseph’s character.
For anyone besides myself that finds Joseph attractive, there is a shower scene where you get to see him shirtless. That is about as hot as it gets.
So if your looking to occupy some time, check this movie out, it’s worth your time. You may cry but you’ll be glad you watched the movie.
