Everyone can find love!

Rating: 9/10 (2 February 2020)

The romantic comedy "As good as it gets" is hilarious, honest, real and entertaining from start to finish. It primarily focuses on a man who has OCD and wants to stick to his routine everyday. Later on, the story introduces a waitress Carol who works at a restaurant where Melvin dines everyday. The third protagonist Simon was first seen in the opening scene as a artist, but then his life quickly spiraled out of control and became broke and goalless. A broke artist, a waitress and a philanthropic writer may not have a lot of things in common. However, that is not true in this case.
The main protagonist Melvin is quite a eccentric character who changed immensely the moment he met Carol and found out that she no longer will be able to serve him. He went to great lengths to make her stay at the restaurant.
This movie delivers quite a clear and interesting message. The message being that every human being on this planet is flawed. We are all imperfect in our own ways. Some may be more than others, but that does not matter. Everyone can find love. No matter how damaged a person is. If the person does not accept your flaws and imperfections, then perhaps you might be in a bad relationship.
To conclude, this movie is incredibly entertaining and exciting with a well crafted storyline and script. Jack Nicholson portrayed his character perfectly. This is not a typical romantic comedy. It is a must watch!
