1983 Best Picture
Premiered November 20, 1983
Budget N/A
Gross $108 Million
This movie started out so...normal. The first 90 minutes were nothing terribly special and even Jack Nicholson's performance was pedestrian. Then, the story took a drastic turn and we were hooked. At that point, the acting and directing began to shine and the characters drew us in. The first part of the film warranted 1 popcorn bag and the second half earned three so we compromised and gave it two. It was quite the feast to famine experience.
Callie
Favorite: It was one of the most character driven movies that we have seen. I began to care for the character.
Least Favorite: Their marriage was so twisted that it was hard to support and root for them to stay together.
Joel
Favorite: The twist at the end was genius on the part of the writers.
Least Favorite: The level of morality has reached a new low. It made it appear that affairs were a normal part of marriage.
