It was theoritcally possible for this to be a good film

I have discovered a pun hole where all punvolution originated. OK, so I am no Dr. Stephen Hawking, but I can write a cheesy pun review on a movie about him. "The Theory of Everything" is an emotional movie about the life of Dr. Stephen Hawking, the renowned physicist who presented theoretical predictions including the one that black holes emit radiation, often called Hawking radiation. Hawking was the first to set forth a cosmology explained by a union of the general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. Hawking also achieved success with works of popular science in which he discusses his own theories and cosmology in general; his "Brief History of Time" stayed on the British Sunday Times best-sellers list for a record-breaking 237 weeks. While my "Not so Brief History of Puns" was not even published! Anyways, what made this so courageous and commendable, is that Hawking was able to accomplish all these great feats living with the debilitating ALS disease. All of this is depicted in "The Theory of Everything", but Director James Marsh decided to march to the beat of a different drum by highlighting Hawking's longtime relationship with his first wife Jane Hawking. So, "The Theory of Everything" is mostly a love story about overcoming insurmountable odds and having profound resiliency to produce a marriage and a family. Stephen had three kids with Jane. There was hardly any Marsh Madness in the direction of the picture, so I give a passing grade to the film's orchestration. I thought that Anthony McCarten's screenplay was a tad weak; and it might have been the film's only minor drawback. However, the greatest force of "The Theory of Everything" was the powerful performances from Eddie Redmayne as Stephen and Felicity Jones as Jane; my theory is that they will be both get nominated for Oscars, and yes I did not kill any brain cells figuring that one out. So drop everything, I mean everything, and discover "The Theory of Everything". **** Good
