    • Synopsis
    • When Adam (Gordon-Levitt) strolls into the doctor’s office one day for some routine tests,
      everything is great.  He’s 25 years old, has a good job and a hot girlfriend.  And then he’s
      diagnosed.  As if facing a life-threatening illness isn’t enough, Adam must also calm his neurotic mother, appease his selfish girlfriend and excuse his best friend (Rogen) for using his condition to lure girls into sympathy sex.  Based on the writer’s own life story, Adam’s touching and often hilarious journey to health reminds us that laughter is the greatest healer of all.
