All you can say is BRAVO!! this movie was awesome! all the actors did a great job. they couldnt hvae picked any other people to do the job Jack Nickleson and Helen HUnt did! Man ever since this movie i have been a big Helen Hunt fan!she is a great actress and people who say she's not feminine are just plain crazy. I dont see how anyone can see that!!!!and another thing i have read alot and some peopel think she is not a very good actress! well if she wasnt a very good one then why would there be such A demand for her! well i know everyone has there own feelings about this movie but i dont see how anyone could not like it!! it was one of the best movies i have ever seen! But thats just me! and i think Helen and jack deserved there awards they really did a breath taking proformance!! well that is just my feeling on the movie!!!

"As Good as It Gets" is Funny, insigthful, romantic, ... the main plot involves the encounter of an artistic man in his fifties who suffers from severe obsessive-compulsive disorder with a morally-correct waitress in her early forties who's trying her best to care for her allergy-prone child and still have a life of her own. The most appealing aspect of the movie is the realization that through a connection with another person ('love') one is able to overcome the difficulties and neurosis that alone, he or she may never had the courage or willingness to address. This movie is famous for the performance of both Helen Hunt and Jack Nicholson, including his line " You make me want to be a better man," which is a turning point in the movie when Jack's character undergoes a Self-realization that allows him to surpass his disorder limitations.

I was really glad to get this title on DVD. It plays very well, and the delivery time was quick. I am very pleased with it. Garrett Ward

If this is as good as it gets, we're all in trouble.
The only part I liked was the end credits.
Jacky is his usual obnoxious annoying self.
Helen Hunt is her nasally annoying usual self.
Greg plays the oh so painfully stereotypical gay character with HIV.
Nicolson is the typical alpha male homophobe and Hunt is the only somewhat nice person in the movie.
I literally had to force myself to watch this movie from start to finish.
I'm so glad I didn't pay to see it in the theater, and I still can't believe this won any awards.
Boring, generic dialogue.
I'm sorry but other than "The Shining" Nicolson just annoys the living %$^% out of me.
Another Hollyweird effort to prove to all of us how enlightened they are and how stupid we are.
A major yawn from start to finish.
Boring directing, dreadful script, unmemorable acting.
I'm sure this movie has fans, but really considering how many awards this movie won, how many people actually remember it?
I do, but not for the right reasons.
I'd put this movie in my top twenty of all time worst movies any day.
Note to Hollyweird, stop making movies about gay people if all you do is either depict us as dysfunctional (Brokeback Mountain)
Psychotic (Basic Instinct) or to be laughed at (In & Out).
How about one positive movie about gay people instead of the usual mind numbing stupidity we've come to expect.
As Good As It Gets???
If it had been any worse it would have been straight to video.
AVOID!!!!!!!!!

The '97 release 'As Good As It Gets' is an immensely entertaining and touching comedy romance with the rare ability to make you cry and laugh simultaneously. The storyline will hold your attention from beginning to end, the dialoque is crisp and original with a mulitude of memorable lines and Jack Nicholson, Helen Hunt and Greg Kinnear all deliver superb performances. Simply a marvelous film you will enjoy more and more with each repeat viewing!

An essential purchase for your permanent DVD library.
