Brilliant, moving, life affirming.

Rating: 8/10 (24 March 2014)

I agree with what filmgal14 has said. To the right person it's really a brilliant film and the obvious flaws can be put aside to enjoy the kind of message this story tells.
Ben Stiller was a good choice to play the role of Walter too, I don't think it would have worked quite as well with any other actor I imagine playing it. The supporting cast were equally good I felt. The only one I wanted to throw an anvil at was Ted (played by Adam Scott), mostly for that beard!
The musical score and cinematography were great and went really well with whatever was happening on screen.
