Entertaining, educational and completely inspiring! Hawking is a film that really makes you want to go out and learn. Thanks to the humane nature of the person it's revolved around. Stephen Hawking.

The movie starts off with Steven Hawking laying on a coach (in a position highly resembling how we lays on his speech generating device) watching television. The movie instantly kicks off to going to Cambridge and when he gets Motor Neuron Disease, nevertheless the man soldiers on going to Cambridge to discover Einsteins theory of relativity! Be assured if you don't have any interest in science, there will be several scenes that will either bore you or not make much sense, especially the transitions between Stephen and the nobel prize winners.

As an individual with a passion for physics, the actual prospect of this being purely a educational documentary intrigues me! But it's more! This drama is brilliantly told with fantastic screenplay (Written by Steven Moffat)!Benedict Cumberbatch continues to amaze me with his amazing acting skills! From Sherlock to Hawking- this man is f***ing brilliant!The soundtrack really reflects the plot well as your marvel at how brilliant Hawking was! It starts of great,then goes slightly slow but the climax is compelling enough to satisfy most viewers.

Defiantly check this one out!
