Melvin Udall, a cranky, bigoted, obsessive-compulsive writer of romantic fiction, is rude to everyone he meets, including his gay neighbor, Simon. After Simon is brutally attacked and hospitalized, Melvin finds his life turned upside down when he has to look after Simon's dog. In addition, Carol, the only waitress at the local diner who will tolerate him, leaves work to care for her chronically ill son, making it impossible for Melvin to eat breakfast.

" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 Still amazing, the acting transcendent. Greg Kinnear is just criminally underrated, a subtle and moving performance. You feel every level of his pain. "

"Not gonna lie, I was somewhat turned off by the writing initially, but the movie gradually won me over as it progressed due to character development. Jack Nicholson’s performance (and also the adorable dog) steals the show."

"Romantic comedy for the more mature crowd. Surprisingly delightful look at the connections people make and the results that arise from them. Jack Nicholson was perfect in this role and Cuba Gooding Jr gave a splendid performance."
