The plot revolves around Quentin Jacobsen (Nat Wolff, who also starred in “Fault in Our Stars”) and his mysterious neighbor Margo Roth Spiegelman (Cara Delevingne) who loves mysteries so much she became one.

After the childhood friends go to an all-night adventure through their hometown, Margo suddenly disappears. She leaves behind clues for Quentin to unravel.

The search leads Quentin and his friends Lacey Pemberton (Halston Sage), Ben Starling (Austin Abrams) and Marcus “Radar” Lincoln (Justice Smith) on an adventure that is equally funny and moving.

In order to find Margo, Quentin must find a deeper understanding of true friendship and true love.

“Paper Towns” is the  second film adaption from John Green’s novels. During the film’s casting, there were controversies whether choosing fashion model, Cara Delevingne as Margo was a right decision. Fans continue to question her acting ability but it is unwise to judge until watching the complete version of the movie.

For true fans of John Green, the movie will be a two hours travel to their favorite world of laughter, cries and a plate full of reality.
