American Beauty

Rating: 10/10 (8 December 2005)

This is one of the best movies I've ever seen. It's ridiculous how good this movie is and if you haven't seen it, go rent it right now, and it will blow you away. Kevin Spacey and Annette Benning are both marvelous actors. While Kevin Spacey and Annette Benning pretty much steal the show, there are no bad actors in this movie. Chris Cooper is so believable as an ex-military dad. Wes Bentley pulls off the lovable, yet creepy next door neighbor so well. Thora Birch and Mena Suvari are incredible as well, even the small roles played by Allison Janney, Scott Bakula, and Sam Robards are very well portrayed. Alan Ball is a genius in writing this very creative portrayal of modern suburbia.
