It Doesn't Get Better Than This!

Rating: 8/10 (26 December 2006)

Hugely enjoyable and well scripted movie which gets you easily involved with all the characters. Jack Nicholson is rude and eccentric, Helen Hunt is nervous and insecure and Gregg Kinnear is vulnerable and lonely. They are all acquaintances who are initially antagonistic towards each other but circumstance brings them all together and they all benefit from it. Wonderfully entertaining, superbly written and beautifully acted this is a film to be savoured time and again. This is one of those rare occasions when Hollywood can bring together major stars and make a literate, entertaining and adult film without 'dumbing down' the content.
