Jonathan Romney Independent on Sunday Ultimately the message is banal and rather repellent: brainwork wrecks your health. Feb 28, 2018 Full Review Philip Kerr New Statesman Crowe is called upon to do not much more than stare solicitously at the heavens, from where inspiration duly arrives, to the accompaniment of some predictably celestial music. Oct 21, 2014 Full Review Christy Lemire Associated Press A Beautiful Mind is Howard's best movie, and easily one of the best movies of the year. Feb 4, 2014 Full Review Mark Johnson Awards Daily When I think of the phrase “Oscar bait,” an expression I’m honestly not fond of, Ron Howard’s A Beautiful Mind is the first movie I always think of. Jun 27, 2023 Full Review Catherine Springer CathsFilmForum.com Nash's character is perfectly suited to Crowe's ability to charm and confuse at the same moment. Rated: 3/5 Jul 26, 2021 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Its inspirational qualities to read more about the real John Nash (and all the things omitted from this biopic) might be the only lasting effect.

Victor B I have never watched a movie quite like this, it tackles some issues alot of other movies are afraid to touch, and it even does so head on, imagine everything you know, your whole entire world, might not actually exist. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/15/24 Full Review Brady S Get ready for the film that is only important because it’s a good Russel Crowe film that’s not gladiator and it’s how Paul Bethany fell in love with Jennifer Connelly. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/13/24 Full Review Kayode A This movie is beyond perfection 👌 and I hope one day I can be loved the way his wife stood by him during hard times Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/04/24 Full Review AHMED A What a wonderful movie 😇😇 It is a movie full of deep emotions about love and mental illness The visual music was extermelly awesome ❤❤ I recommend you watch this movie now !!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/09/24 Full Review Fabrícia F A comovente jornada de um brilhante matemático em busca do equilíbrio em sua saúde mental. Tudo feito com sensibilidade para que o drama não se perca em clichês bobos ou vazios. Jennifer Conelly e Russel Crowe atuam bem sincronizados no papel de um belo casal apaixonado. Incrível, inspirador, gentil. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/08/24 Full Review Shobhit B Excellent movie very emotional and romantic at the same time. Love beautiful Jennifer Connelly, Russel Crowe should have won the oscar for his brillient acting Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/18/24 Full Review Read all reviews
