Amazing Job
The acting was amazing from Chloë Grace Moretz , I thought she was vary believable in her role. The movie itself was inspiring. It was one of those movies you watch, and it felt like your life has been changed in some way. Chloë has been proving herself the be one of the best, and I believe some day she will win an Oscar.
This Movie Mirrors Our Experience With the Same Disease!
This movie has been wrongly criticized for showing clueless doctors. However, this disease was not even identified by the World Health Organization until 2007 and was only named in 2009! My family member has in 2017 been diagnosed with this disease and it was his 47th doctor who diagnosed him!!! Thus, it is important for viewers to know the diagnosis journey depicted in Brain on Fire is REAL and NOT FICTIONAL and COMMON when it portrays how hard in the real world it is for well-known doctors to diagnose this disease so that it can be treated. This movie depicts two important messages: 1. Trust your gut if a doctor says something you disbelieve like “She must be drinking too much” or “She belongs in a mental hospital” and 2. Keep asking for the views of additional doctors until you get the Dr. House-like Dr. Najjar or his team who figures it out. FYI, Mt. Sinai Hospital researchers are currently conducting a study–independent of this movie but timely!–to report to their profession the high percentage of autoimmune encephalopathy patients who are incorrectly diagnosed with psychological disorders before eventually getting the autoimmune encephalopathy diagnosis and treatment. We recommend this movie especially to anyone interested in the diagnosis process and medical mysteries.
