About the Average

Rating: 6/10 (4 November 2006)

I like Jack Nicholson and I like most of his movies .. and I truly feel that this movie is way overrated .. not that I didn't like it but it is just about the average with two good performance by Louise Fletcher & Nicholson. But the problem is that it isn't Jack's best performance as many say .. his performances in other movies (Terms of Endearment, As Good As it Gets and Chinatown) were much better. I kinda find it quit boring most of the time, and I can't help it if the movie sucks on many ways .. I don't care that the movie based on a famous novel that I didn't read .. because I'm watching a movie and my eyes only believe what they see and I'm afraid I didn't see that much to amaze me besides, I've read some reviews and it sounds the movie wasn't faithful to the novel and was a very bad adaptation .. I assure you this isn't a masterpiece, it is just about the average movie as I said before NOTHING MORE .. so, don't expect so much out of it.
