Two upper-class teenage girls in suburban Connecticut rekindle their unlikely friendship after years of growing apart. Together, they hatch a plan to solve both of their problems-no matter what the cost.

The beginning of this one seemed promising and I was looking forward to where the duo were going, but the film swerved off into some fairly boring territory quickly. I was left fidgeting and querying (after my many years of watching crime dramas and reading forensic science books) how any of them managed to convince the police of their guilt/innocence.

Brilliant performance by Redmayne who uncannily resembles a young Hawking.
The two leads shore up a movie that at times seem s a tad predictable which is amazing since Redmayne had never had a lead role prior to this.
The onscreen chemistry in this heartbreaking story is believable and tangible, however I think the film should have touched more on Hawkings love and passion for science, but feels more like a love story which isn't a bad thing.
An engaging story of love that is worth your time.
