Based on a true story...
Other reviews have stated this was gratuitously violent and that bothered other reviewers. It was gratuitous, but it wasn't the violence that bothered me, this film just comes across as a cynical cash-in of a tragic story.
OK, it gets one star for nice cinematography and that is the only redeeming feature. Other than that, dreadful D-list acting and a very clumsy script - everyone but the camera crew are probably asking "want fries with that" at the moment.
I work with Autism, it's a complex disability, no two autistic people are alike, just like you and I - but they do act "autistic" unlike the main character, who really puts on a shocking and kinda sickening attempt at "acting" (no, just the burger thanks).
It's a shame, this could have been a moving and insightful film - there is a nice visual aesthetic, but everything else is completely broken.
