Brilliant!!!

Rating: 10/10 (5 August 2005)

This movie is awesome, Jack Nicholson is amazing and fully deserves the awards he got from this film, i cant imagine anyone who could have played the part better - the role of McMurphy was originally offered to James Caan (Godfather,Misery). other star performers in this movie are: William Redfield (who died a a few months after the film was released), Louise Fletcher, Danny Divito, William Duell, Josip Elic, Christopher Lloyd and Brad Dourif. This movie has everything a good story, good acting, comedy, sad parts and a great ending. one flew over the cuckoos nest is totally different to any other film i've seen before which is amazing because it came out in 1975, I'm surprised no one has made anything like this because it was such a big movie when it first came out( won 5 Oscars. Another 26 wins & 11 nominations ) This and monty pythons holy grail are the best movies of 1975 and is up there with the Godfather as one of the movies of the 70's.
Interesting trivia on this film: Many extras were authentic mental patients.
I would give this film a 10/10 Main good points: brilliant acting - most of the actors performances of their career, great story and the bus scene(one of the funniest ever) Main bad points: none
