Cara Delevingne is really mesmerising and she steals the show in her brief appearances. With the casting, Nat Wolff does most of the hard lifting in this film, as you see just about everything from his perspective, which could have been a disaster if the wrong person had been cast, thankfully Wolff pulls it off. The two leads Nat Wolff & Cara Delevingne work well together. However, not everything in the movie does quite work. It is an interesting story with a lot of things I like, mystery, sass, obscure cartography references and the realisation that we are uniquely complex individuals. The plot of the film revolves around Quentin ‘Q’ Jacobsen (Nat Wolff) and Margo Roth Spiegelman (Cara Delevingne) and how their interactions define their lives (or at least one of their lives). So with this is mind how does the film do? well not bad actually. I would talk about what those things were, but unfortunately, they are at the core of the book, so we would be not just dipping our toes into spoiler territory but diving head first, which is something I want to avoid. Before I go on I should mention that I have read the source book Paper Towns and overall I had mixed response, some things really worked while others didn’t. Paper towns is a name given to fake towns places on maps by cartographers so that they can check for plagiarism, (as a lover of all things maps, I love little things like this), it is also the name of a book by John Green and now a movie. ![]()
