The Best Movie Ever!

Rating: 10/10 (30 December 2001)

Jack Nicholson turns in his finest performance of all time as con Randle McMurphy. McMurphy doesn't like prison life so he decides to get a transfer to the mental institution, pretending to be a nut, for a cushier life. Halt! Enter Nurse Mildred Ratchett (Louise Fletcher) who grinds McMurphy down until he ends up labotamised and turned into a live cabbage. Not before Nicholson takes the patients on a fishing trip, throws a party in the ward with women and plenty of booze and of course his world series rant, where he commentates on the world series after nurse ratchett won't allow the patients to watch the game like she said she would. A great movie directed by Czech Milos Foreman, which was the movie Jack Nicholson was born to star in. Also an impressive supporting cast Christopher Lloyd and Danny De Vito spring to mind.
