Watch "If I Stay" full movie

The newest Young Adult (YA) novel to movie film has been received well by audiences. But how does it compare to 2014's biggest YA hit- "The Fault in Our Stars?"

Variety's Justin Chang had this to say about the tear-jerker:

"If "The Fault in Our Stars" at times fell prey to the troubling suggestion that terminal cancer blesses you with a higher level of self-awareness, "If I Stay" manages to confront its central tragedy on less noxious, more honest and accessible terms. Shuffling and restructuring key episodes from the source material, scribe Shauna Cross ("Whip It," "He's Just Not That Into You") tries to approximate the pensive quality of the book's first-person narration by making frequent use of voiceover, often slathered over the transitions between Mia's happy-sad memories and the ghostly purgatory she now inhabits. Yet these shifts between past and present never cast a spell or rise above a blandly workmanlike feel; far from achieving the eerie, ethereal quality desired, listening to Moretz utter banalities like "Sometimes you make choices in life, and sometimes choices make you" only makes the story feel like a clunkier, more earthbound experience."

What is the movie all about? Google provides a quick description of "If I Stay" full movie:

"Mia Hall thought the hardest decision she would ever face would be whether to pursue her musical dreams at Juilliard or follow a different path to be with the love of her life, Adam. But what should have been a carefree family drive changes everything in an instant, and now her own life hangs in the balance. Caught between life and death for one revealing day, Mia has only one decision left, which will not only decide her future but her ultimate fate."
