This Movie is Fictious!

Rating: Null/10 (14 May 2002)

I wanted to believe this movie was sorta of like the real people that it is based on, but it isn't. This movie got three things right that I have to put in its defense. One, the names Alicia and John F. Nash, two, John F. Nash did win the Pultizer Prize in Economics, and three John F. Nash does have schizophrenia and conquered the mental disorder by what he calls "diet". Other then that this movie is that, A MOVIE. Reading the book, A Beautiful Mind, a person learns more about the real true John F. Nash and Alicia Nash. When a person reads the book they find that it paints Nash in a different light then the movie does. This movie should have been wrote about a different person then the real one because it would have worked out better. I was extermely surprised and sadden too because of what is revealed. The movie is good as long as you think that John F. Nash is just a character. Even though in the credits the movie is based on the book it is very loosely based. There should have been a warning label with this movie due to the unrealistic details it has about its protagonist.
