Not as bad as I thought it'd be!

Rating: Null/10 (18 April 2002)

Well I must stress that most of the time I disagree with the Academy's picks for best picture. The Academy has always chosen the wrong movies such as Titanic, The gladiator, American Beauty and finally A beautiful Mind. I thought "A Beautiful Mind" would be a bad movie, since it was chosen by the Academy, but it certainly wasn't that bad. The academy doesn't see what's really worthy. `The others' was an outstanding movie; it should have received what it did. There are so many wonderful movies that weren't even nominated for best picture. But anyway it doesn't matter. "A Beautiful Mind" isn't that good; nevertheless I really liked it a little. I'm so glad the academy chose it instead of "Lord of the Rings". I don't deny it was much better than the over-rated movie I already mentioned. The acting was believable, but I didn't see anything great about Jennifer Connelly's performance. I don't like Russell Crowe at all, He seems to be such an arrogant and pretentious person, but I must say that he acted very well in this movie. I like this movie because it teaches us to love all the things we have and to ignore all the people who make us feel bad. It's a well-told and acted story. The make up of this movie was amazing. The way John Nash got older was utterly believable.
Overall I'm glad it wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be, this is a movie in which we all can learn many things about life, we all have to live everyday to its fullest. 7/10
