An astonishing 'bore de force'.

Rating: 1/10 (24 February 2015)

This is the dullest film I have seen in the last 10 years, probably even longer. I think the main problem is that most people know who SH is and how disabled he is, so wasting time on his illness and SH's deterioration over time was stupid. There was no drama here - he has motor neurone disease and you don't get better, surprise, surprise. So instead the film could have explored the characters in much more depth but sadly, the characterisation is so shallow there is nothing to applaud here. For the actor portraying SH to get the Oscar for Best Actor is laughable. Save your money by not going to see this film and instead use it to buy 'Untouchable' (Intouchables) by Olivier Nakache & Eric Toledano if you want to see a beautiful film about a disabled person.
