Good but not as good as they say, and too too long

Rating: Null/10 (9 January 2002)

Great Casting, great performances but at 210 minutes at least forty minutes too long.

SPOILER.... I found annoying that Nash's fantasy life was a more interesting story line than his reality -- sorry.. too many action flicks, I guess. I realize we were seeing his world vision but then why did the "guys white suits" pick him up in the middle of a guest lecture at Harvard, and why did his wife seem to know nothing of the plan to institutionalize him until after the fact?
