Excellent. Outstanding. Amazing.

Rating: 10/10 (14 January 2002)

Two basic things happen to me when I see a film. Either I promptly forget it, or I keep re-playing scenes from it over and over again in my mind.
With A Beautiful Mind, the scenes kept re-playing for me. In great clarity. So much so, that I went to see it again. It re-plays even better the second time around. It is a film that is so layered that it deserves a second look. And for those of you who do go to see what you consider to be good films a second or third time, well, you know what sometimes happens . .. the second time around, the film loses something, or you see its flaws, or the plot just doesn't seem as interesting.
Not so with this film. Trust me. It is tremendous.
