A profound and powerful look at the disintegration of a 'perfect' family.

Rating: Null/10 (15 November 1999)

'American Beauty' is an absorbing film. The acting is phenomenal, especially Kevin Spacey as a man who has been beaten down by life for far too long. The film's idea about beauty and life are so acute that the characters sting you with their observations. This movie is a profound and powerful look at the disintegration of a 'perfect' family.
