This movie tells the story of two boys who met due to their shared illness -- lukemia. The story is presented through the recordings and writings of the thoughts and experiences of one boy as he contemplates life and what it means to die, and pursues his dreams before the time comes.
It's a simple story, but the reason for the high rating is the honest presentation and creative form of storytelling. There are no true highs or lows throughout, but it demonstrates the real effect that the death of friends, family members or the dying can have on each other.
I recommend this if you're looking for a movie which covers a serious topic in a thoughtful way.
