0ri Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Well I have seen this film a few times, all i can say is that it is a totally brillant film. The atmosphere of this film is immense your really get the feel of the frustration of what are basically institutionalised prisoners. I cant complain of the acting of Jack Nicholson or the actor who plays Miss Ratchet both totally convincing. If I could fault anything is that it deviates slightly from the book's characters and focus, although whether this is neccesarily a bad thing im not sure. The most potent message or debate the film brings up is the way society treats the 'mentally ill', effectively locking them away because they do not conform with society's norms or values. Similarly the effect on the indivual as they becom institutionalised is another interesting debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy500fan Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 just to start off i have to say the acting in this movie is great. bad acting doesnt really bother me as much as some people, just like great acting helps but doesnt make the movie. jack's performance in this was great, and another one i enjoyed very much was danny devito's. the storyline was pretty good, the end really made the film. i think the point of the movie is that mentally ill people arent exactly what you think they are, and that the staff of the hospital dont really consider themselves as much as being nurses, but more being "guards". dont know if "guards" really quite explains it, because its not quite that serious. mcmurphy (jack) said in the film "none of you are sick, these doctors just make you think you are", and that sums up the main point of the movie. i see where he is coming from too, he doesnt think he is sick, and he notices that he is a lot like these people (some are actually sick, maybe many), so they arent really sick either. anyways, my review of the movie is very good. might be in my top 25, definently top 40 or so. if you watch a lot of movies and havent see this one yet, make time for it, you wont be dissapointed. it can seem slow at parts, but this time (second time i watched it) i didnt notice it being slow at all. the end makes it all worth it though, its great. Edit: just noticed i made another post instead of editing it in. didnt mean to do that :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sukkisinkkari Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Best Nicholson imo. Had some pre-expectations for this 1, but they are all gone. The younger nurse was pretty hot and i kept looking her, mayby i should look this movie for 3rd time in a row. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
