Starfish (2016)
10/10
Well acted film about a life changing illness
9 August 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Where do you start about such an emotional film showing the effects of Sepsis.

It can not be described as an easy watch but incredibly well acted with some beautiful moments. The football scene is beyond belief.

It is challenging but totally worth it to realise how a minority suffer.

The level of self pity is totally understandable and portrayed in a brilliant manner by Tom. Some may find it over the top but would any of us be any better? You can't imagine having to be in this situation.

His wife and daughter play their parts stunningly well and display love beyond imagination given the circumstances. Every element of their lives and the impact of the illness is covered.

It is a very moving brilliant 90 minutes that will stay in your mind for a long time.
