I didn't know this was based on a true story, so after seeing the film, I am definitely going to check out the documentary that details the life and work of Mark Hogencamp. This is a sad and distressing film, and yet one leavened by humour and optimism. Oh, and it's also injected with that Zemeckis movie magic that brings Marks story, and the town of Marwen to life. Worth a watch.

Interesting premise. Interesting story. Clever presentation. Great cast. It left me wanting to see the documentary that this was based on (MARWENCOL) and see a Behind the Scenes look at the making of this film (I found https://youtu.be/wPljaZYCuFk). I give this film a 7 (good) out of 10. [Drama based on a Real Life story]

My first rent of amazon prime and it was definitely worth more than 1.99 and It had (zemeckis) beautiful work all over it and the reality and unreality fitted perfectly with some fantastic effects and the sense of humour was super, it had a bit of everything and the choice on main role was a good choice because it was a great performance from (Steve Carell) and the rest of the cast that made it the beautiful and emotional film it is and I love the fact it was based on a true story.

A really enjoyable movie. You really sympathize with Mark as life has dealt him a difficult hand. Whilst I'm not sure to what extent this was dramatized for the movie, living with anything near to what Mark the character was experiencing is something I can't imagine. Very heartwrenching film and the use of animation with the figures was a stroke of genius, really helped distinguish between what was real and what was in his head. I'd definitely recommend watching this film. 7/10 18/05/2019
