As Good As It Gets
USA 1997, 138 minutes
Dir. James L. Brooks
Rating: [M]
Genres: Comedy / Romance, Black Comedy
Topics: Animal Antics.
Feat. Jack Nicholson, Helen Hunt, Greg Kinnear
Aroview: Obsessive-compulsive Jack Nicholson has his fear and loathing neutered by the straight-shooting solo-Mum waitress, Helen Hunt, in an affable, sitcom-ish spin on 'A Christmas Carol'.
The pair are not exactly a match made in heaven but indeed that's the whole point, and it works. Both picked up an Oscar for the trouble, though they're altogether out-disciplined by a frisky wire-haired pooch!

4 stars (Very Good) Melvin is not your typical romance novelist, he's a self-absorbed cynic, suffers from OCD, with a gift for offending people. But when he reaches out in an act of unexpected kindness, he tentatively starts to return to the human race. It's a hoot. ~GenXGirl
2 stars (Good Try) Helen Hunt is fine but the material is not good enough for two hours ~Tubbs
