Paper Towns
2.5 out of 10
Paper Towns is another John Green adaptation, forcing audiences to return to an idealized version of their adolescence where the nerds look like models and the popular girls look like goddesses. The fundamentally flawed depiction of teenage life is a minor problem when compared with the plot and narrative of this movie. The clues that lead our (extremely attractive) hero on his journey are way too random and circumstantial to fall into place as they do. Thus, the movie is essentially an infuriating series of plot conveniences. This could have possibly been overlooked had the film possessed other redeeming qualities. Alas, Paper Towns is nothing more than a subpar YA romance movie.
