Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Armand at first sigh - cruel. mixture of theater play and horror title. in fact, only honest picture from a part of ordinary existence. this is its key. the credible chain of gestures and dialogs. the details of action. the brilliant gray acting. a film as warning about sickness, pity, roles in a group, links between people. a wise film, far of usual traps, clear and grave, profound and clear as a water glass. each character as drawing of a state of soul. the performance of Marlies Heuer is really beautiful. the work of her colleagues - impressive. must see it ! not only as a special Dutch film. but as question about roots of decisions of every day.

dumsumdumfai The questions come to mind .. a)how does he choose the scripts... b)are the followers closet deadpan humour addicts? .. and on and on and on..If you know AVW's movies, this is in line of others. You have to catch on - read the motivations of the characters - like in real life, people usually don't spiel out monologues like in Hamlet.It is funny, quirky, yeah..all that. But it is a bit dark too. The fist 30min is the most intriguing as each character review themself - you are like meeting new ppl in a party. The next hour or so goes deep into the relationships, and the last bit... well.. I really can't remember, since I saw this last year. But darn thing is I remember the ending of Die Hard 1. Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

isaiasvalbuena I rated so high cause i was not expecting too much , and i had a great surprise.If i have to describe it in a few words will be: funny and bizarre ,dark and clever.The acting is superb, the genre is dark comedy and the plot original funny and dramatic.I'm trying not to spoil anything because you'll be surprise how good is this film.I will not tell you the details from the plot but , it deals with how much the people is willing to humiliate themselves for the promise of a better future "$".I laughed like i didn't in quite a while,in a movie with a very disturbing and original plot but at the same time universal.Buy the DVD, rent it , download it WHATEVER but see it you will not regret.After i saw it was so interested that i went to IMDb for research about the director/writer and i find that the strangest character is played by him LOLL this guy is a genius.... and as the previous review says he deserves a larger audience.

serge-33 I can't understand why Alex Warmerdam's movies haven't reached a larger audience. Quirky, bizarre, original dialog, beautiful setting, great actors - with wife Annet Malherbe always the true star. His latest is a remake of a play and plays out like one. I thought the Dutch dunes were portrayed fabulously and the house was a marvel. The acting great, with national promise Eva van de Wijdeven putting down a stellar performance that matches young French actresses like the girl who played in Swimming Pool and our own Carice. The plot is as with all his screenplays disturbing yet hilarious, isolated yet universal, crazy yet supernormal. The guy cracks me up. Give him a global distributor for God's sake!
