If Will Smith doesn't get an Oscar for this, something rots in the "Academy"!

Rating: 10/10 (25 December 2015)

Will Smith's character hasn't a REMOTE semblance to Mr. Smith's usual tongue-in-cheek, Fresh Prince.
His concentration never waivers in sadness or a smile, in serious discussion or anger.
There's a term that's used on stage called "breaking character". You won't see THAT in this film.
The subject matter brings a sad commentary to light. Too often sick or injured people are regarded by those of authority as people who are strictly bad "actors" whose behavior is deliberate, and under their control.
The saddest thing that this movie presents is that Doctors, who should be more aware and first to alarm, often are the "authorities" that perpetuate the fallacy.
KUDOS to Will Smith and the rest of the cast for presenting a film that not merely entertains, but presents the subject with the seriousness it deserves and a sledge hammer to the heart.
