This film was reviewed by Abigail Hummel, University of Florida, on June 6, 2014.

Additional Comments: "Augustus (Ansel Elgort) buys cigarettes, and 'doesn't smoke' them. He says it's a metaphor and that 'you put the thing that does the killing right between your teeth, and never give it the power to kill you.' So he 'smokes' unlit cigarettes throughout the movie.  However, he is called out for his behavior a couple of times, including a scene in which he has one in his mouth on a plane and he is told to put it away."
