A very magnificent movie

Rating: 9/10 (21 February 2000)

This movie was one of the best I have ever seen. It lets you watch behind the people, not how they behave, but what they think: there is no such thing as a real American family, where every day is a day in heaven.
The characters are well developed and very realistic. The further the movie goes, the crazier it becomes. And the end is not how people would expect it to be, yet another sign of the geniousness of the crew. American Beauty certainly deserves at least three Oscars: movies like this only come out once in a couple of years, and certainly the last couple of years. CONCLUSION : 9.5/10
