    This was a lot better than I expected. I really enjoyed it and even shed a tear here and there.

    I genuinely had no idea who Robbie WIlliams was before this movie was starting to get previewed and my biggest question was 'Why is he a chimp?' and honestly that still is a pretty big question.

    I know a common criticism of biopics is that they are often just kind of a list of events that happen in a famous person's life. I think it's takes some really special writing to make…
