Outstanding - this is what movies are for

Rating: 10/10 (26 January 2017)

There's been a lot of hype for this movie and Lion lived up to the hype for me - in fact exceeded my expectations.
Beautifully filmed and acted, with a moving true story that is simply incredible.
It's a movie for all ages, well, at least kids 10 and over. This film deserves to scoop awards in many categories, not the least of which is Nicole Kidman's acting which was so real and captured the period precisely.
This film touches all emotions, is masterfully put together, and is highly recommended. I look forward to watching it again.
