Worth watching

Rating: 6/10 (9 October 2015)

A melodrama about the life of Stephen Hawking. It's exactly what you can expect from a movie like that, but it's pretty well done. the movie focuses on the disease and the family relationships, while touching the science aspect once in a while, explaining it to the layman.
Eddie Redmayne is very good in his role, convincingly playing Hawking and making the performance very believable. His looks is very to Hawking himself, so that helps too. Felicity Jones is OK in her role.
Good low-key score by Johann Johannsson.
I haven't checked how accurate the movie is, but it's based on a book written by his wife and according to IMDb's trivia, Stephen Hawking liked it.
