TITLE : As Good as it gets.
GENRE : Family, Drama

MY RATING: 9.5/10
My second review on a Jack Nicholson flick. I am really starting to like this guy. Perhaps this movie made me laugh more than what I have for more than a year.
The dialogues were the key to this movie and no wonder Jack (Udall) and Helen Hunt were nominated for the movie. He is really a class act. Its an Amazing performance in his own typical charm and attitude. Helen Hunt (Carol), not the actress that I would say is the most glamorous but certainly caught the attention in this film.
The story is all about a guy who is suffering from obsessive impulsive disorder who lives in his own world and his slow transition into the normal world. Its because of this girl who is a waitress in a hotel where he takes his breakfast daily.
I have this weird habit of writing down some interesting dialogues that come across when I watch a film. This film had so many phrases I liked that I didn’t wanna disturb the flow and hence I had to see it again to write them down.
“Well am drowning here and u are describing the water!!!” – This one would have been what I should have been telling to the people who used to give me the so called advice when I was down reeling.
I will finish the post by quoting two of the compliments that Mr. Udall gives Helen. Perhaps these weren’t all that romantic like the “Walk to remember” or “Dance with me” stuff but I loved both of them and I thot it had a great deal of feeling behind those words. Here it goes,
Quote; “U make me wanna be a better man.” Unquote.
Quote; “I maybe the only person on the face of the earth who knows you are greatest woman on earth. I might be the only one who appreciates how amazing you are in every single thing that you do. And every single thot that u have, how u say it and say what u mean and how u almost always mean something that’s all about being straight and good. I think most people miss that about you. And I watch them wondering how they could watch you bring their food and clear their tables and never get that they have just met the greatest women alive.
And the fact that I get it makes me feel good. About me!!!” Unquote
