A typical Hollywood movie

Rating: Null/10 (10 June 2004)

I was first attracted to this movie because it was a true story. Given how Hollywood portrays "true" stories, I should have known better. They tend to "glamorize" the romance, and overall, I was disappointed, as I had hoped this movie would portray a more accurate "version" of John Nash. James Horner (off comment here) is a good musician, but it seems his inspiration is "borrowed" from his idols. I wasted my money buying the soundtrack, as it is extremely redundant. Charlotte Church has a great voice, but Horner is a major disappointment in my opinion (for this movie) in that it seems he takes a 'theme' and not only plays it to death, but copies other composers that it is evident, inspire him. Not very original in my book! Definitely an "overrated" movie! Perhaps an 'okay' rental. Don't waste your money buying it!
