The Beauty That Is American

Rating: 9/10 (27 September 2003)

American Beauty, a masterpiece all around. This movie grabs your attention from the first scene all the way to the last scene. This drama/very dark comedy will open up a whole new world of film for you.
Lester is a your ordinary man. He has a wife, who annoys him constantly, a daughter who hates Lester. The new neighbors just moved in next door. This movie follows around Lester's dysfunctional family.
This movie is just plain beauty. It truly is a beauty. Everyone one does great acting. The ones that stick out the most are Kevin Spacey, Lester, Chris Cooper, the father of the next door neighbors, and Wes Bently, Ricky Fitts the son of the neighbors.
Rated R What I think it should be rated and why: R for Strong Sexuality, violence, language, and drug use and content. *****/*****
