Obree's real-life story is interesting and inspirational, but I'm not really sure this film does it the justice it deserves. The scenes which tackle his battle with depression are sensitively handled, and the conversation with Brian Cox by the lake was quite moving. But the cinematography and acting was just flat and uninspired, and the cycling scenes towards the end started edging towards your normal triumph-over-adversity beating-the-odds cheesiness.

Hooray for the creativity and passion of Scots!

Good for a one time watch
