The Father

Bad story telling

The role that upset Chadwick Boseman at the Oscars. Hopkins absolutely deserved his 2nd Best Actor win in what is perhaps the greatest portrayal of dementia ever put to film. Non-linear story telling with a heart wrenching ending like no other. Don’t skip this one!

8/10 - Heartbreaking film that highlights the reality of Alzheimer’s disease. This film was unbelievably sad in more ways than one, especially at the final act. Anthony Hopkins was absolutely brilliant in this film, as was Olivia Colman, two incredible actors. Truly devastating.

Rarely do you see acting this good, Hopkins really touches you with his incredible skill. The way the movie is made, makes the movie all the more real and touching, simply fantastic…

Unique and innovative story telling. An excellent representation of dementia that is very powerful in it's delivery.
