It's a good movie and says a lot about the human spirit of both those whose bodies give out while their mind is intact and their caregivers. In this case, the brilliant mind somehow managed to triumph. This is based on a true story with liberties taken with the story line, mainly to protect the main characters who are still alive. It is also based on his first wife's book and so there's a bit of that slant to it. But it does tell a compelling tale and lifts the spirit somehow. Eddie Redmayne's portrayal of Hawking is superb.
