While King's Speech is a brilliant movie that one should absolutely watch and get inspired by, in my opinion Rocket Science deals with teenage stuttering in a much more realistic and relatable manner. We all have either experienced or are experiencing the phase of stuttering as a teenager, and this movie really showcases the emotional rollercoaster ride that it is, the anger, the frustration, the streaks of inspiration, the small victories, and at the end, the shades of acceptance.
