An Undeserving Film

Rating: 5/10 (6 September 1998)

I went to see this film shortly after the Oscar nominations were given out. I frankly don't see why it deserved any. Jack Nicholson's job is by-the -numbers, and as much as I like Helen Hunt, her role didn't look like much of a stretch. Their performances were definitely not Oscar-worthy, and the script was standard-issue Hollywood. The picture shows me how meaningless the Oscars are becoming.
