Made with unique access to Hawking's private life, this is an intimate and moving journey into Stephen's world, both past and present. An inspirational portrait of an iconic figure, Hawking relates his incredible personal journey from boyhood under-achiever, to PhD genius, to being diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease and given just two years to live. Despite the constant threat of death, Hawking manages to make many remarkable scientific discoveries and rises to fame and super-stardom. Hawking - a remarkable man, and a remarkable movie.
Leave your thoughts about Hawking.
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferFascinating and deeply moving. Brings out Hawking's humility, warmth and wit. The best doc about Stephen Hawking ever made. |
| NewsdayVerne GayAs billed, an intimate look at a genius, but the science gets a major haircut here. |
| Empire MagazineSimon CrookA genuinely three-dimension life portrayal of an extraordinary mind. |
| San Francisco ChronicleDavid WiegandThe lasting takeaway from the film is how much there is to this man. |
| Boston GlobeCarolyn Y. JohnsonFor a person who is keenly aware of the downside of fame - he worries that he is known as much for his illness as he is for his scientific discoveries - the storytelling falls short. |
| Village VoiceChris PackhamFinnigan wisely seizes on the gentle strength and charisma of Hawking's first wife, Jane Wilde. She imprints on the film as fully as her former husband. |
| The SkinnyChris BuckleFor all its wealth of detail, Stephen Hawking the man remains somewhat unknown. |

| New York TimesDavid DeWittMr. Hawking — no shy and retiring genius, he — has star quality that he lets shine, whatever the limitations of its packaging. |
| Total FilmAndrew LowryThere's an admirable refusal to canonise the prof, and we're left in no doubt that his life has not been plain sailing either for him or those he relies on ... |
