Best film I've ever seen

Rating: 8/10 (26 June 2001)

Jerry Maguire is my favorite, but this is the best movie I have ever seen. This deserves ten stars out of four. I really think this movie is brilliant. They should have given an honorary oscar to the cast of this movie, cause there were brilliant performances by all the eight major characters. Mendes should stick to film if this is the kind of work he can put up time to time. Everything is just so perfect about this movie. The dialogue is very, very superior, thanks to Alan Ball. The script is at times sad, hilarious, and suspenseful. The only film that even comes close to being as good as American Beauty is Kenneth Branagh's version of Hamlet. If you haven't seen this yet, I only have three words of advice for you. GO SEE IT!!!!
